Basic Operation & Riding
Braking
Your ATV is equipped with disc brakes on both front wheels which are
hydraulically activated by operating the right brake lever. A single drum
brake on the rear axle housing is mechanically activated by depressing
the brake pedal or operating the left brake lever.
Although the front and rear brakes have separate controls, all four
wheels are interconnected when your ATV is in the 4WD mode. So
operating any brake control in the 4WD mode will cause braking at both
the front and rear wheels.
When possible, reduce your speed or complete braking before entering a
turn. Avoid braking or closing the throttle quickly while turning. Either
action may cause one or more wheels to slip and reduce your control of
your ATV.
Applying the brakes too hard may cause the wheels to lock and slide,
reducing control of your ATV. If this happens, release the brake
controls, steer straight ahead until you regain control, then reapply the
brakes more gently.
Gradually increase braking as you feel the brakes slowing your speed.
The increase in engine compression from downshifting will help slow
your ATV.
To slow or stop, apply the brake lever and brake pedal smoothly, while
downshifting to match your speed.
For full braking effectiveness, use both the pedal and lever
simultaneously. Using both braking systems will stop your ATV faster
with greater stability.
As a general rule, the front braking system provides about 70 percent of
total stopping power.
