9 e. Remove the spark plug cap from the spark
plug, and then install the spark plug and
the spark plug cap.
4. Lubricate all control cables and the pivoting
points of all levers and pedals.
5. Check and, if necessary, correct the tire air
pressure, and then block up the ATV so that
all of its wheels are off the ground. Alternative-
ly, turn the wheels a little every month in order
to prevent the tires from becoming degraded
in one spot.
6. Cover the muffler outlet with a plastic bag to
prevent moisture from entering it.
7. Remove the battery and fully charge it. Store
it in a cool, dry place and charge it once a
month. Do not store the battery in an exces-
sively cold or warm place [less than 0 °C (30
°F) or more than 30 °C (90 °F)]. For more in-
formation on storing the battery, see page
8-54.
NOTE:Make any necessary repairs before storing theATV.U3B462E0.book Page 3 Tuesday, March 20, 2007 11:46 AM
