When filling the cooling system, use a
coolant/water mixture which will sat-
isfy the coldest anticipated weather
conditions of the area in accordance
with the coolant manufacturer’s recom-
mendations. While the cooling system
is being filled, air pockets may
develop; therefore, run the engine for
five minutes after the initial fill, shut
the engine off, and then fill the cooling
system to the bottom of the stand pipe
in the radiator neck.
NOTE: Use a good quality, biode-
gradable glycol-based, automo-
tive-type antifreeze.
SHOCK ABSORBERS
Each shock absorber should be visibly
checked weekly for excessive fluid
leakage (some seal leakage may be
observed but it does not indicate the
shock is in need of replacement),
cracks or breaks in the lower case, or a
bent shock rod. If any one of these con-
ditions is detected, replacement is nec-
essary.
NOTE: When the ATV is operated
in extremely cold weather(-23°C/-
10°F or colder), a small amount of
leakage may be present. Unless
the leakage is excessive, replace-
ment is not necessary.
The shock absorber has a spring force
adjustment sleeve with five adjustment
positions to allow the spring to be
adjusted for different riding and load-
ing conditions. If the spring action is
too soft or too stiff, adjust it according
to the chart.
CD453
NOTE: Before attempting to
adjust suspension, clean dirt and
debris from the sleeve and remove
load from the suspension; then
use the spanner wrench to adjust
the sleeve to the desired position.
GENERAL
LUBRICATION
Cables
None of the cables require lubrication;
however, it is advisable to lubricate the
ends of the cables periodically with a
good cable lubricant.
! WARNING
Never check the coolant level when
the engine is hot or the cooling
system is under pressure.
CAUTION
After operating the ATV for the ini-
tial 5-10 minutes, stop the engine,
allow the engine to cool down, and
check the coolant level. Add cool-
ant as necessary.
