Shifting Gears
(cont’d)
Your ATV has five forward gears (1, 2, 3, 4 and 5). To shift the
transmission, pull in the clutch lever/parking brake lever, then operate
the shift lever as follows.
The shift lever is located near the left footpeg. One full stroke of the
shift lever shifts the transmission to the next higher or lower gear in the
shifting sequence. The shift lever automatically returns to the horizontal
position when released.
To upshift to a higher gear, put the toe of your boot under the shift lever
and raise it one full stroke. To downshift, step on the shift lever and
depress it one full stroke.
To select reverse, use the reverse assist lever (page ).
After starting the engine and letting it warm up, follow these
procedures:
With the transmission in neutral, push and hold down the rear brake
pedal. Release the clutch lever/parking brake lever (page
).
