Ignition Switch Key
Two keys come with the ATV. Keep the
spare key in a safe place. An identifying
number is stamped on each key. Use this
number when ordering a replacement key.

Ignition Switch
The ignition switch has three positions.
ATV-0056
OFF
position — All electrical circuits
except the accessory plug are off. The
engine will not start. The key can be
removed in this position.
NOTE: The accessory plug is pow-
ered by the battery at all times.
ON
position — The ignition circuit is
complete and the engine can run. The key
cannot be removed in this position.
LIGHTS

is complete and front (if equipped) and
rear running lights are on. The left con-
trol switch can be moved to illuminate
the high beams and low beams. The key

Shift Lever
XR004A
This ATV has a dual-range automatic
transmission with reverse and park.
Drive Select Switch
XR068B
This switch allows the operator to oper-
ate the ATV in either two-wheel drive
(rear wheels) or four-wheel drive (all
wheels). For normal riding on flat, dry,
hard surfaces, two-wheel drive should be
sufficient. In situations of aggressive trail
conditions, four-wheel drive would be
the desired choice.
CAUTION
Leaving the ignition switch in the ON
or LIGHTS position for a long period
of time when the engine is not run-
ning may cause the battery to dis-
charge. Always leave the ignition
switch in the OFF position when
engine is not running.
