Select a large, flat, unpaved area to become famil-
iar with your ATV. Make sure that this area is free
of obstacles and other riders. You should practice
control of the throttle, brakes, shifting procedures,
and turning techniques in this area before trying
more difficult terrain.
Set the parking brake and follow the instruction on
page 6-1 to start the engine. Once it has warmed
up you are ready to begin riding your ATV. As you
get on the ATV, be sure not to accidentally move
the shift pedal. With the engine idling, lift the shift
pedal to the 1st gear position and then release the
parking brake. Apply the throttle slowly and
smoothly. The centrifugal clutch will engage and
you will start to accelerate. Once the ATV has at-
tained adequate speed, release the throttle and lift
the shift pedal to the 2nd gear position. Release
the shift pedal and apply the throttle smoothly.
WARNING! If the throttle is applied too abruptly
or if the throttle is not released during shifting,
or if the shift pedal is not released before ap-
plying the throttle, the front wheels may lift off
the ground, resulting in a loss of directional
control.
[EWB02631]
NOTICE: Do not shift gears
without releasing the throttle. Damage to the
engine or drive train may occur.
[ECB01071]
Use this same procedure as you move into the
higher gears. Be sure to coordinate the use of the
throttle and shift pedal properly.
Avoid higher speeds until you are thoroughly famil-
iar with the operation of your ATV.
When slowing down or stopping, release the throt-
tle and apply the brakes smoothly and evenly. As
you slow down, shift to a lower gear. Be sure that
the engine has sufficiently slowed before engaging
a lower gear. Improper use of the brakes or shifting
can cause the tires to lose traction, reducing con-
trol and increasing the possibility of an accident.
TURNING YOUR ATV
WARNING
EWB01771
Always follow proper procedures for turning
as described in this Owner’s Manual. Practice
turning at low speeds before attempting to turn
at faster speeds. Do not turn at speeds too fast
for your skills or the conditions. ATV could go
out of control, causing a collision or overturn.
To achieve maximum traction on unpaved surfac-
es, the two rear wheels turn together at the same
speed. Therefore, unless the wheel on the inside
of the turn is allowed to slip or lose some traction,
