Obstacles rencontrés
S’il est impossible de contourner un obstacle tel que le
tronc d’un arbre abattu ou un fossé, arrêter le véhicule à
un endroit sûr. Serrer le frein de stationnement et sortir du
véhicule afin d’examiner attentivement le terrain. Exami-
ner à la fois le côté par lequel l’obstacle sera abordé et le
côté par lequel il sera surmonté. Si l’obstacle semble sur-
montable, décider de la voie qui permet de le surmonter à
l’angle le plus droit possible afin de réduire au maximum
le risque de renversement. Rouler à une vitesse qui per-
mette de conserver son élan tout en allouant un temps de
réaction suffisant en cas de changement des conditions.
Au moindre doute quant à la sécurité de la manœuvre, il
convient de faire demi-tour si le terrain est plat et que
l’espace est suffisant, ou de reculer jusqu’à ce qu’une
voie plus accessible soit découverte.Obstáculos
Si no puede sortear un obstáculo, como por ejemplo
un árbol caído o una zanja, detenga el vehículo don-
de sea seguro hacerlo. Ponga el freno de estaciona-
miento y salga para examinar la zona detenidamen-
te. Observe el terreno por donde ha venido y la
salida. Si cree que puede continuar de forma segura,
escoja el camino que le permita sortear el obstáculo
a un ángulo lo más recto posible a fin de reducir al
mínimo el riesgo de volcar. Avance justo con la velo-
cidad suficiente para mantener el impulso pero que
le permita contar con tiempo suficiente para reaccio-
nar ante cualquier cambio de condiciones.
Si pone en duda la posibilidad de maniobrar de for-
ma segura por encima del obstáculo, debe rodearlo,
si el terreno es llano y dispone de espacio, o bien re-
troceder hasta encontrar una vía menos difícil.EE.book Page 74 Monday, October 8, 2007 4:48 PM

B. Storage
Long term storage (60 days or more) of your vehi-
cle will require some preventive procedures to
guard against deterioration. Make any necessary
repairs before storing the vehicle.
After thoroughly cleaning the vehicle, prepare for
storage as follows:
1. Fill the fuel tank with fresh fuel and add the
specified amount of Yamaha Fuel Stabilizer
and Conditioner or equivalent product. Oper-
ate the vehicle for at least 5 minutes to dis-
tribute treated fuel through the fuel system.
2. Remove the spark plug, pour about one ta-
blespoon of SAE 10W-40 or 20W-50 motor
oil in the spark plug hole and reinstall the
spark plug. Ground the spark plug wire and
turn the engine over several times to coat the
cylinder wall with oil. Specified amount:
1 oz of stabilizer to each gallon of fuel
(or 7.5 ml of stabilizer to each liter of fuel)

3. Lubricate all control cables.
4. Block up the frame to raise all wheels off the
ground.
5. Tie a plastic bag over the exhaust pipe outlet
to prevent moisture from entering.
6. If storing in a humid or salt-air atmosphere,
coat all exposed metal surfaces with a light
film of oil. Do not apply oil to any rubber parts
or the seat covers.
7. Remove the battery and charge it. Store it in
a dry place and recharge it once a month. Do
not store the battery in an excessively warm
or cold place [less than 0°C (30°F) or more
than 30°C (90°F)].
Use of fuel stabilizer and conditioner eliminates
the need to drain the fuel system. Consult a
Yamaha dealer if the fuel system needs to be
drained.
