Shifting Gears
Basic Operation & Riding
While the engine is idling, pull in the clutch lever/parking brake lever
and raise the shift lever to shift into 1st gear.
Release the brake pedal, gradually release the clutch lever/parking
brake lever, and increase engine speed by gradually opening the
throttle.
When the speed increases, close the throttle, pull in the clutch lever/
parking brake lever, shift to 2nd gear by raising the shift lever, and
gradually release the clutch lever/parking brake lever while gradually
opening the throttle.
Repeat this sequence to progressively upshift to 3rd, 4th and 5th (top)
gear.
To downshift, reverse this sequence. Remember to close the throttle
each time you shift to the next lower gear.
Learning when to shift gears comes with experience. Keep the following
tips in mind:
As a general rule, shift while moving in a straight line.
Close the throttle and pull the clutch lever/parking brake lever in
completely before shifting. Improper shifting may damage the engine,
transmission, and drive train.
Ride in the highest gear that lets the engine run and accelerate smoothly.
This will give you good fuel economy and effective emissions control.
Recommended Shift Points
Your ATV will not stall even if you stop in gear without disengaging
the clutch.
To prevent transmission damage, do not coast or tow the ATV for
long distances with the engine off.
Avoid downshifting to help slow your ATV when engine rpm is high.
Downshifting when engine speed is near its allowable maximum may
over-rev the engine and cause possible damage.
Downshift to a lower gear before you feel the engine laboring
(lugging) at low rpm.
Upshift to a higher gear or reduce throttle before engine rpm (speed)
gets too high. Learn the relationship between engine sound and the
normal shifting points.
