Important Safety Precautions
Maintenance Safety
Servicing Your Honda
Carbon monoxide poisoning from engine exhaust.
Burns from hot ATV parts.
Injury from moving parts.
Make sure the engine is off before you begin any maintenance or
repairs. This will help eliminate several potential hazards:
Be sure there is
adequate ventilation whenever you operate the engine.
Let the engine and exhaust system cool
before touching.
Do not run the engine unless instructed
to do so.
Read the instructions before you begin, and make sure you have the
tools and skills required.
To reduce the possibility of a fire or explosion, be careful when
working around gasoline. Use only non-flammable solvent, not
gasoline, to clean parts. Keep cigarettes, sparks, and flames away
from all fuel-related parts.
Remember that your Honda dealer knows your ATV best and is fully
equipped to maintain and repair it. To ensure the best quality and
reliability, use only new Honda Genuine Parts or other equivalents for
repair and replacement. If you have the tools and skills required for
additional maintenance jobs, you can purchase an official Honda
Service Manual (page
