PREPARATION FOR STORAGE
Arctic Cat recommends the following procedure to prepare the ATV for
storage. An authorized Arctic Cat ATV dealer should perform this service;
however, the owner/operator may perform this service if desired.
1. Clean the seat cushion (cover and base) with a damp cloth and
allow to dry.
2. Clean the ATV thoroughly by washing dirt, oil, grass, and other
foreign matter from the entire ATV. Allow the ATV to dry thorou-
ghly. DO NOT get water into any part of the engine or air intake.
3. Either drain the gas tank or add a fuel stabilizer to the gas in the
gas tank. Remove the air fi lter housing cover and air fi lter.
Start the engine and allow it to idle; then using Arctic Cat Engine
Preserver, rapidly inject the preserver into the air fi lter opening for
a period of 10 to 20 seconds. Install the air fi lter and housing cover.
4. Drain the carburetor fl oat bowl.
5. Plug the hole in the exhaust system with a clean cloth.
6. Apply light oil to the upper steering post bushing, plungers of the
shock absorbers, and drive chain.
7. Tighten all nuts, bolts, cap screws, and screws. Make sure rivets
holding components together are tight. Replace all loose rivets.
Care must be taken that all calibrated nuts, cap screws, and bolts
are tightened to specifi cations.
8. Fill the cooling system with properly mixed coolant.
9. Disconnect the battery cables (negative cable fi rst); then remove
the battery, clean the battery posts and cables, and store in a
clean, dry area.
Prior to storing the ATV, it must be properly serviced to prevent
rusting and component deterioration.
! CAUTION
If the interior of the air fi lter housing is dirty, clean the area before
starting the engine.
