ATV Operation
Active riding and basic maneuvers are
the foundation of your ATV ride. Without
basic skills, it’s impossible to execute
active riding. These are your basic
maneuvers:
• Mounting the ATV
• Starting the Engine
• Starting a Cold Engine
• Braking/Stopping
• Shifting
• Parking
• Dismounting the ATV
Mounting the ATV
1. From the left side, grab the left-side
handlebar, apply the brake, and put
your left foot on the footrest.
2. Grab the right-side handlebar.
3. Swing your leg over the seat and set
your right foot down on the right-
side footrest.
4. Get seated in a comfortable position.
5. Always keep your feet planted on
the footrests.
Starting the Engine
Always start with the ATV on a flat, level
surface. Carbon monoxide poisoning can
kill you, so keep your ATV outside while
it’s running. Follow these steps to start it
up:
1. Mount the ATV and sit down.
2. Engage the brake lever lock.
3. Turn on the ignition.
4. Shift into neutral.
5. Move the emergency stop switch to
RUN.
6. Press the starter button.
7. Let the engine warm up.
Starting a Cold Engine

NOTE: It is very important not to
touch or compress the throttle lever
during the starting procedures.
1. Turn off all electrical accessories
(hand warmer, lights, etc.); then
rotate the ignition switch key to the
first position (ON) leaving the head-
lights OFF. Note that the N is indi-
cated on the LCD.
2. Press on the starter button.

NOTE: Do not touch the throttle
lever until the engine has run for at
least 3 minutes.
3. Allow the engine to warm up for
approximately 2-3 minutes or until
the ATV will accelerate without hes-
itating.
Braking/Stopping
Always allow plenty of room and time to
stop safely. Sometimes quick stops are
inevitable, so always be prepared.
Whether you’re stopping slowly or stop-
ping quickly, do this:
1. Squeeze the brake lever on the left
handlebar to apply both the front and
rear brakes.
2. If your wheels lock, release them for
a second; then apply them again.
