CHECKING ADJUSTMENT
Stop the ATV completely and shift the transmission into
the R position. The reverse gear indicator light should be
illuminated.
If the reverse gear indicator light does not illuminate
when shifted to the reverse position, the switch may be
faulty, the fuse may be blown, the bulb may be faulty, a
connection may be loose or corroded, or the lever may
need adjusting. To adjust, proceed to Adjusting Shift
Lever.
ADJUSTING SHIFT LEVER
1. Place the shift lever in the N (neutral) position; then
set the engine stop switch to the STOP position and
turn the ignition switch to the RUN position. The
neutral indicator light should illuminate.
NOTE: If the neutral indicator light does not illumi-
nate, adjustment of the shift linkage will be required.
To adjust, proceed to step 2.
2. Loosen the jam nuts on both ends of the shift rod and
turn the shift rod until the neutral light illuminates.
Tighten the jam nuts securely.

Hydraulic Brake Systems
CHECKING FLUID/BLEEDING
The hydraulic brake systems have been filled and bled at
the factory.
1. With the master cylinder in a level position, check
the fluid level in the reservoir. If the level in the res-
ervoir is not visible in the sight glass, add DOT 4
brake fluid.
XA074
2. Compress the brake lever/pedal several times to
check for a firm brake. If the brake is not firm, the
system must be bled.
3. To bleed the brake system, use the following proce-
dure.
A. Remove the cover and fill the reservoir with DOT 4
Brake Fluid.
B. Install and secure the cover; then slowly compress
the brake lever several times.
C. Remove the protective cap, install one end of a clear
hose onto the REAR bleed screw, and direct the other
end into a container; then while holding slight pres-
sure on the brake lever, open the bleed screw and
watch for air bubbles. Close the bleed screw before
releasing the brake lever. Repeat this procedure until
no air bubbles are present.
KM116A
NOTE: During the bleeding procedure, watch the
reservoir sight glass very closely to make sure there is
always a sufficient amount of brake fluid. Failure to
maintain a sufficient amount of fluid in the reservoir
will result in air in the system.
! WARNING
Never shift the ATV into reverse gear when the ATV is
moving as it could cause the ATV to stop suddenly
throwing the operator from the ATV.
