CONTROLS

Light Switches

The light switch is located on the left handlebar. It’s used to turn the

lights on and off and to switch the lights from HI to LO. NOTE: The

lights won’t work unless the key is in the on position and the shut-off

switch is in the run position.

Brake Lever

The front and rear brakes are applied

by squeezing the brake lever (1)

toward the handlebar. The front and

rear brakes are hydraulically

activated disc type brakes that are

activated by only one lever.
Always test 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.

Operating the ATV on streets or roads, especially in darkness, could

result in an accident and serious injury or death.
Your ATV is not equipped with highway-approved lights. It’s

designed for and must be used for off-road use only. Use caution

and drive at reduced speeds in conditions of reduced visibility such

as fog, rain and darkness.

WARNING

1

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.
