l
Always be careful when skidding or sliding.
Learn to safely control skidding or sliding
by practicing at low speeds and on level,
smooth terrain. On extremely slippery sur-
faces, such as ice, go slowly and be very
cautious in order to reduce the chance of
skidding or sliding out of control.
l
Never operate an ATV in fast flowing water
or in water deeper than that recommended
in this manual. Remember that wet brakes
may have reduced stopping ability. Test
your brakes after leaving water. If neces-
sary, apply them several times to let friction
dry out the linings.
l
Always be sure there are no obstacles or
people behind you when you operate in re-
verse. When it is safe to proceed in reverse,
go slowly.
l
Always use the size and type tires specified
in this manual.
l
Always maintain proper tire pressure as de-
scribed in this manual.

Battery
Check fluid level and fill if necessary. Use only
distilled water if refilling is necessary. (See
pages 8-73 ~ 8-79.)

Tires
Always use the recommended tires.
WARNING
Use of improper tires on this ATV, or opera-
tion of this ATV with improper or uneven tire
pressure, may cause loss of control, increasing
your risk of accident.
Pay attention to the following.
1. The tires listed below have been ap-
proved by Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd. for this
model. Other tire combinations are not
recommended.

2. The tires should be set to the recom-
mended pressure:l
Recommended tire pressure
Front 25 kPa (0.25 kg/cm
2, 0.25 bar)
Rear 25 kPa (0.25 kg/cm2, 0.25 bar)
l
Check and adjust tire pressures when the
tires are cold.

l
Tire pressures must be equal on both sides.
3. Tire pressure below the minimum speci-
fied could cause the tire to dislodge from
the rim under severe riding conditions.
The following are minimums:
Front 22 kPa (0.22 kg/cm
2, 0.22 bar)
Rear 22 kPa (0.22 kg/cm2, 0.22 bar)
4. Use no more than the following pressures
when seating the tire beads.
Front 250 kPa (2.5 kg/cm2, 2.5 bar)
Rear 250 kPa (2.5 kg/cm2, 2.5 bar)
Higher pressures may cause the tire to
burst. Inflate the tires very slowly and
carefully. Fast inflation could cause the
tire to burst.

How to measure tire pressure
Use the low-pressure tire gauge.NOTE:The low-pressure tire gauge is included as
standard equipment. Make two measurements
of the tire pressure and use the second read-
ing. Dust or dirt in the gauge could cause thefirst reading to be incorrect.
Set pressure with tires cold.
Set tire pressures to the following specifica-
tions:

To decelerate:
When slowing down or stopping, release the
throttle 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. Improp-
er use of the brakes or shifting can cause the
tires to lose traction, reducing control and in-
creasing the possibility of an accident.
WARNING
Make sure the engine has sufficiently slowed
before shifting to a lower gear. Engaging a
lower gear when the engine speed is too high
could make the wheels stop rotating. This
could cause loss of control, an accident and in-
jury. It could also cause engine or drive traindamage.

WARNING
Always use the size and type tires specified in
the Owner's Manual for this vehicle on pages
5-19 ~ 5-21. Always maintain proper tire pres-
sure as described in the Owner's Manual on
page 5-23. Use of improper tires on this ATV,
or operation of this ATV with improper or un-
even tire pressure, may cause loss of control,
increasing your risk of an accident.
Do not operate at speeds too fast for your
skills or the conditions.WARNING
Always go at a speed that is proper for the ter-
rain, visibility and operating conditions, and
your experience. Operating this ATV at speeds
too fast for your skills or the conditions in-
creases your chances of losing control of the
ATV, which can result in an accident.
