FEATURES AND CONTROLS

Brakes

Operating the ATV with a spongy brake lever can result in loss of braking, which

could cause an accident. Never operate the ATV with a spongy-feeling brake

lever. Always contact your dealer for service before operating the vehicle.

Aggressively applying the rear brakes when backing down a hill may cause rear

tipover, which could result in serious injury or death. Never back down a hill.
Use caution when applying the rear brakes. Do not aggressively apply the rear

brakes when going forward. The rear wheels may skid and slide sideways,

causing loss of control, which may result in serious injury or death.

Front Brakes (Right Lever)

Squeeze the right brake lever toward

the handlebar to apply the hydraulic

front wheel brakes. This lever does not

apply the rear brakes.
Always test front brake lever travel and

master cylinder fluid level before

riding. When squeezed, the lever

should feel firm. Any sponginess

would indicate a possible fluid leak or

low master cylinder fluid level, which must be corrected before riding.

Contact your dealer for proper diagnosis and repairs.
