Speed limiter
The speed limiter keeps the throttle from fully
opening, even when the throttle lever is pushed to
the maximum. Turning in the adjusting screw limits
the maximum engine power available and de-
creases the maximum speed of the ATV.
WARNING
_ Improper adjustment of the speed limiter and
throttle could cause throttle cable damage or
improper throttle operation. You could lose
control, have an accident or be injured. Do not
turn the adjusting screw out more than 12 mm
or the throttle cable could be damaged. Always
make sure the throttle lever free play is adjust-
ed to 3–5 mm. See page 8-91. _

_

Do not overfill the fuel tank. Fuel expands
when it heats up. If the fuel tank is over-
filled, fuel could spill out due to heat from
the engine or the sun.


Be careful not to spill fuel, especially on
the engine or exhaust pipe which can
cause a fire and severe injury. Wipe up
any spilled fuel immediately.


Do not refuel right after the engine has
been running and is still very hot.


Be sure the fuel tank cap is closed secure-
ly.
