Braking
Basic Operation & Riding
As a general rule, the front braking system provides about 70 percent of
total stopping power.
Gradually increase braking as you feel the brakes slowing your speed.
The increase in engine compression from downshifting will help slow
your ATV.
Your ATV is equipped with disc brakes on both front wheels which are
hydraulically activated by operating the brake lever. A single drum
brake on the rear axle housing is mechanically activated by depressing
the brake pedal.
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.
For full braking effectiveness, use both the front brake lever and rear
brake pedal simultaneously. Using both braking systems will stop your
ATV faster with greater stability.
To slow or stop, apply the front brake lever and rear brake pedal
smoothly, while downshifting to match your speed.
For maximum braking, close the throttle and firmly apply the front
brake lever and rear brake pedal controls.
