Preparation For Storage

Arctic Cat recommends the following

procedure to prepare this ATV for stor-

age. An authorized Arctic Cat ATV

dealer should perform this service; how-

ever, 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 wash-

ing dirt, oil, grass, and other foreign

matter from the entire ATV. Allow

the ATV to dry thoroughly. 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 filter housing

cover and air filter. Start the engine

and allow it to idle; then using Arc-

tic Cat Engine Preserver, rapidly

inject the preserver into the air filter

opening for a period of 10 to 20 sec-

onds. Install the air filter and hous-

ing cover.

4. Plug the hole in the exhaust system

with a clean cloth. On the 400, drain

the carburetor float bowl.

5. Apply light oil to the upper steering

post bushing and plungers of the

shock absorbers.

6. Tighten all nuts, bolts, cap screws,

and screws. Make sure rivets hold-

ing components together are tight.

Replace all loose rivets. Care must

be taken that all calibrated nuts, cap

screws, and bolts are tightened to

specifications.

7. On the 500/550/700/1000, fill the

cooling system to the bottom of the

stand pipe in the radiator neck with

properly mixed coolant.

8. Disconnect the battery cables (nega-

tive cable first); then remove the bat-

tery, clean the battery posts and

cables, and store in a clean, dry area.

NOTE: For storage, use a battery

maintainer or make sure the bat-
tery is fully charged (see Battery
section in this manual).

9. Store the ATV indoors in a level

position.

CAUTION

Prior to storing the ATV, it must be
properly serviced to prevent rusting
and component deterioration.

CAUTION

If the interior of the air filter housing
is dirty, clean the area before starting
the engine.

CAUTION

Avoid storing outside in direct sun-
light and avoid using a plastic cover
as moisture will collect on the ATV
causing rusting.
