Air Filter
Air Filter Maintenance
To maintain the highest performance from your
engine and to reduce excessive wear that could
cause engine failure, the engine requires a
continuous flow of clean air. Air is taken into the
engine through an air filter to clean the air prior
to mixing it with fuel and oil in the carburetor.
During normal operation the filter
accumulates dirt from the air and will need to
be cleaned to maintain the proper air flow.
The filter should be cleaned every 30 days,
more often if you ride in a dusty or dirty
environment and the element should be
replaced every year.
The air filter box is located on the left side of the
engine. To access the air filter you must
remove the left side engine shield. The cover is
about 3x4” box and is attached to the
crankcase with two bolts
To clean the filter
Remove the air filter box cover. Remove the
filter element from the air box. Clean the screen
located in the mounting box behind the element.
Wash the element in a non-flammable solvent
such as Air-Filter cleaner from your local auto
parts dealer.
1. Dry the element completely before
continuing.
2. Soak the element in clean engine oil until
completely saturated.
3. Squeeze out the excess oil until the
element does not drip any oil.
4. Allow the element to dry then reinstall the
element and cover.
Braking Systems
Your ATV unit is equipped with a rear mechanical
drum brake. The rear brake is applied by
squeezing the brake lever on the left-handle bar.
Proper maintenance of the brake system is a
necessary part of safe operation of your unit. The
brake systems should be inspected and tested
before each riding session.
Rear Brake System Inspection
Visually inspect the brake cable for any signs of
wear, kinking, corrosion or other damage.
Test the brake by applying pressure to the brake
lever and trying to push the unit forward. If the wheel
rotates while the brake is applied, check your brake
cable, brake adjustment and brake pads. If the brake
lever feels hard to squeeze the brake cable may
need to be lubricated or may be damaged.
Lubricate the cable with a cable lubricant available
from your dealership.
