Oil temperature warning light “”
When the oil temperature reaches a specified lev-
el, this light comes on to warn that the engine oil
temperature is too hot. If the light comes on during
operation, stop the engine as soon as it is safe to
do so and allow the engine to cool down for about
10 minutes.CAUTION:_
The engine may overheat if the ATV is
overloaded. If this happens, reduce the
load to specification.
Restart after making sure that the light is
out. Continuous use while the light is on
may cause damage to the engine.

Starting a cold engine
WARNING
_ Always make sure all control cables work
smoothly before you begin riding in cold
weather. If the control cables are frozen or do
not work smoothly, you could be unable to
control the ATV, which could lead to an acci-
dent or collision. _1. Apply the rear brake lever.
2. Turn the fuel cock to “ON”.
3. Turn the main switch to “ON”, and then set
the engine stop switch to “”.
4. Shift the drive select lever into the neutral po-
sition.

With the engine idling, return the starter (choke) to
the closed position, shift the drive select lever into
the forward position, and 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 control. Avoid higher speeds
until you are thoroughly familiar with the operation
of your ATV.
When slowing down or stopping, release the throt-
tle and apply the brakes smoothly and evenly. Im-
proper use of the brakes can cause the tires to
lose traction, reducing control and increasing the
possibility of an accident.

If your ATV has stalled or stopped and you believe
you can continue up the hill, restart carefully to
make sure you do not lift the front wheels which
could cause you to lose control. If you are unable
to continue up the hill, dismount the ATV on the
uphill side. Physically turn the ATV around and
then descend the hill.
If you start to roll backwards, DO NOT apply either
brake abruptly. If you are in 2WD, apply only the
front brake. When this ATV is in 4WD, all wheels
(front and rear) are interconnected by the drive
train. This means that applying either the front
brake or the rear brake will brake all wheels. When
descending hills, using either brake lever or the
brake pedal will brake the wheels on the downhill
side. Avoid sudden application of either the front or
rear brake because the wheels on the uphill side
could come off the ground. The ATV could easily
tip over backwards. Apply both the front and rear
brakes gradually, or dismount the ATV immediate-
ly on the uphill side.
