Be sure to use motor oils that do not contain
anti-friction modifiers. Passenger car motor oils
(often labeled “ENERGY CONSERVING
II”)
contain anti-friction additives which will cause
clutch and/or starter clutch slippage, resulting
in reduced component life and poor engine per-
formance.

With the engine idling, return the starter knob to
the closed position and shift the drive select
lever into the forward position. Then release the
parking brake. Apply the throttle slowly and
smoothly. The centrifugal clutch will engage and
you will start to accelerate. If the throttle is
applied too abruptly, the front wheels may lift off
the ground resulting in a loss of directional con-
trol. Avoid higher speeds until you are thorough-
ly familiar with the operation of your ATV.
When slowing down or stopping, release the
throttle and apply the brakes smoothly and
evenly. Improper use of the brakes can cause
the tires to lose traction, reducing control and
increasing the possibility of an accident.
