Features and Controls

Fuel Valve

The fuel valve is located on the left side of the ATV. It

has three positions:
OFF: For vehicle storage and when transporting.
ON: For normal operation.
RES: For reserve supply if main supply is exhausted.

NOTE:

There's about a 5 to 8 mile (8 to 13 km) range on

reserve gas. Always refill the gas tank as soon as

possible after using the main supply.

Always return the valve to the ON position after refueling.
