12. If the engine slows or stops, move the choke lever half way to the right to
allow proper engine warm-up. Vary the engine RPM slightly with the throttle
to aid in warm-up.
13. When the engine idles smoothly, move the choke lever completely to the
right.
COLD WEATHER OPERATION
If the ATV is used year-round, check the oil level frequently. A rising oil level
could indicate the accumulation of contaminates such as water or excess fuel in
the bottom of the crankcase. Water in the bottom of the crankcase can lead to
engine damage and must be drained.
TIP
Water accumulation increases as outside temperature decreases.
If the oil level rises to the top of the sight glass, change the oil immediately.
Always operate the engine long enough to reach operating temperature, which
reduces condensation.
DRIVING PROCEDURE
1. Sit upright with both feet on the footrests and both hands on the handlebars.
2. Shift the transmission to neutral.
3. Start the engine and allow it to warm up.
4. Check your surroundings and determine your path of travel.
5. Squeeze the left brake lever.
6. Shift the transmission to the desired gear.
7. Slowly release the brake lever.
8. Slowly press the throttle with your right thumb and begin driving.
9. Drive slowly at first. Practice turning and using the throttle and brakes on
level surfaces.
MAKING TURNS
Your ATV is equipped with a solid rear axle, which drives both rear wheels
equally at all times. This means that the wheel on the outside of the turn must
travel a greater distance than the inside wheel when turning and the inside tire
must slip traction slightly.
