increasing the chance of an accident. Test the
brakes after washing. Apply the brakes several
times at slow speeds to let friction dry out the
linings.
EBU25951
Storage
Short-term
Always store your ATV in a cool, dry place and, if
necessary, protect it against dust with a porous
cover.
CAUTION:

ECB00720

Storing the ATV in a poorly ventilated room
or covering it with a tarp while it is still wet,
will allow water and humidity to seep in and
cause rust.

To prevent corrosion, avoid damp cellars,
stables (because of the presence of ammo-
nia) and areas where strong chemicals are
stored.
Long-term
Before storing your ATV for several months:
1. Follow all the instructions in the “Cleaning”section of this chapter.
2. Turn the fuel cock lever to “OFF”.
3. Drain the carburetor float chamber by loosen-
ing the drain bolt; this will prevent fuel deposits
from building up. Pour the drained fuel into the
fuel tank.
4. Fill up the fuel tank and add fuel stabilizer (if
available) to prevent the fuel from deteriorat-
ing.
5. Perform the following steps to protect the cyl-
inders, piston rings, etc. from corrosion.
a. Remove the spark plug caps and spark
plugs.
b. Pour a teaspoonful of engine oil into each
spark plug bore.
c. Install the spark plug caps onto the spark
plugs, and then place the spark plugs on
the cylinder head so that the electrodes
are grounded. (This will limit sparking dur-
ing the next step.)
d. Turn the engine over several times with
the starter. (This will coat the cylinder walls Specified amount:
7.5 ml of stabilizer to each liter of fuel (or 1 oz
of stabilizer to each gallon of fuel)
