Checking and lubricating the cables
The operation and the condition of all control ca-
bles should be checked before each ride, and the
cables and cable ends should be lubricated if nec-
essary. If a cable is damaged or does not move
smoothly, have a Yamaha dealer check or replace
it.
WARNING
EWB02582
Inspect cables frequently and replace if
damaged. Corrosion can result when the ca-
ble sheaths become damaged, and cables
can also become frayed or kinked, which
could restrict the operation of controls and
lead to an accident or injury.
Always make sure all control cables work
smoothly before you begin riding in cold
weather. If the control cables are frozen or
do not work smoothly, you could be unable
to control the ATV, which could lead to an
accident or collision.
EBU28703
Checking and lubricating the front and
rear brake levers
The operation of the front and rear brake levers
should be checked before each ride, and the lever
pivots should be lubricated if necessary.
Recommended lubricant:
Yamaha cable lubricant or other suitable
cable lubricant
Recommended lubricant:
Lithium-soap-based grease
