CONTROLS
Light Switches
The light switch (1) is located on
the left handlebar. It’s used to
turn the lights on and off.
NOTE: The lights won’t work
unless the key is in the
ON position and the
shut-off switch is in the RUN position.
WARNING
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.
Brake Lever
The front and rear brakes are
applied by squeezing the brake
lever (2) 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.
WARNING
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.
