Vent Lines
1. Check fuel tank, front gearcase, rear gearcase and
transmission
vent lines for signs of wear,
deterioration, damage or leakage. Replace every two
years.
2. Be sure vent lines are routed properly and secured
with cable ties.
IMPORTANT: Ensure lines are not kinked or
pinched.
Throttle Pedal Inspection
This vehicle is equipped with a Throttle Release Switch
(TRS) used to detect when the throttle pedal has
returned to the rest position.
NOTE: The throttle pedal lever is designed to have a
few degrees of freeplay prior to engaging the throttle
arm that pulls the throttle cable.
Always check that the throttle pedal moves
independently of the cable pull lever at the start of throttle
pedal travel and that the throttle pedal returns normally
before starting the engine.
There should be minimal freeplay between the throttle
cable and the cable pull lever. If there is excessive play
due to cable stretch or misadjustment, it will cause a
delay in throttle response, especially at low engine
speed. The throttle may also not open fully. If the throttle
cable has no freeplay, the throttle may be hard to control,
and the idle speed may be erratic.
Check throttle pedal freeplay periodically in accordance
with the Periodic Maintenance Chart. Adjust the freeplay
if necessary (see “Throttle Freeplay Adjustment”).
Throttle Freeplay Adjustment
Inspection
1. Place the transmission in PARK.
2. Start the engine and warm it up thoroughly.
3. Measure the distance the throttle arm (A) moves
before the engine begins to pick up speed. Throttle
cable freeplay should be 1/16” - 1/8” (1.5 - 3 mm).
NOTE: The throttle pedal lever (B) is designed to
have a few degrees of freeplay prior to engaging the
throttle arm (A) that pulls the throttle cable.
Adjustment
1. Remove both seats and rear service panel.
2. Remove cargo box as an assembly (see Chapter 5).
