Automatic Transmission Gear Selector
The transmission gear selector (1) is located on the right side of the
vehicle. Shift patterns vary, depending on your model.
H: High Gear
L: Low Gear
N: Neutral
R: Reverse
P: Park (Sportsman 600/700 only)
To shift into HIGH or PARK on the Sportsman 600 or 700, you must
first apply the auxiliary brake to activate the high/park lock-out
mechanism. When shifting out of HIGH or PARK, it’s not necessary
to apply the brake.
Whenever the ATV is left unattended, always place the transmission in
first gear (or in PARK if equipped) and lock the parking brake.
Maintaining shift linkage adjustment is important to assure proper
transmission function on the Sportsman 400 and 500. See your dealer
if you experience any shifting problems.
Belt Life
To extend belt life, use low forward gear in heavy pulling situations and
when operating at less than seven miles per hour for extended periods of
time.

Shifting gears with the engine speed above idle or while the
vehicle is moving could cause transmission damage.
To change gears, stop the vehicle, and with the engine idling,
move the lever to the desired gear. Apply the auxiliary brake if
shifting into HIGH or PARK on the Sportsman 600 or 700.
