STORAGE PROCEDURE
If you do not use your ATV for a long time, it will need special service

recommend that you trust this maintenance work to your authorized service
center. If you wish to service the machine for storage yourself, follow the
general guidelines below:
VEHICLE
Place the vehicle on level ground and wash the entire vehicle.
FUEL
Drain the fuel from the fuel tank by a hand pump. Drain the fuel from the
carburetor by releasing the carburetor drain screw.
TIRES
Inflate tires to the normal pressure.
EXTERNAL
1. Spray all vinyl and rubber parts with rubber protection.
2. Spray unpainted surfaces with rust preventative.
3. Coat painted surfaces with car wax.
PROCEDURE FOR RETURNING TO SERVICE
1. Clean the entire vehicle.
2. Make sure that the vehicle is properly lubricated.
3. Perform the INSPECTION BEFORE RIDING as listed in this manual.
4. Start the vehicle as outlined in this manual.
WARNING
Draining the fuel could be hazardous.
Fuel could catch fire if you do not handle it properly.
When draining the fuel from the fuel tank, be sure to shut the engine
off. Do not smoke, and never drain fuel in an area where there are
open flames or sparks. Keep pets and children away from the fuel, and
dispose of the drained fuel properly.
