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
decreases the maximum speed of the ATV.
w
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 dam-
aged. Always make sure the throttle lever
free play is adjusted to 2–4 mm. See page
8-69.
