SAFETY INFORMATION
SAFETY INFORMATION
EBU27255AN ATV IS NOT A TOY AND CAN BE HAZARD-OUS TO OPERATE.An ATV handles differently from other vehicles, in-
cluding motorcycles and cars. A collision or roll-
over can occur quickly, even during routine
maneuvers such as turning and riding on hills or
over obstacles, if you fail to take proper precau-
tions.
SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH can result if you do
not follow these instructions:
Read this manual and all labels carefully and fol-
low the operating procedures described.
 Never operate an ATV without proper training or
instruction. Take a training course. Beginners
should receive training from a certified instruc-
tor. Contact an authorized ATV dealer to find
out about the training courses nearest you.
 Always follow the age recommendation:
– A child under 16 years old should never oper-
ate an ATV with engine size greater than 90 cc. 
Never allow a child under age 16 to operate an
ATV without adult supervision, and never allow
continued use of an ATV by a child if he or she
does not have the abilities to operate it safely.
 Never carry a passenger on an ATV.
 This vehicle is intended for off-road use only. Do
not operate on any paved surfaces such as:
sidewalks, driveways, parking lots, paved
roads, public streets or other motorway.
 Watch carefully for other vehicles when operat-
ing on unpaved public streets or roads. Make
sure you know your country’s laws and regula-
tions before you ride on unpaved public streets
or roads.
 Never operate an ATV without wearing an ap-
proved motorcycle helmet that fits properly.
You should also wear eye protection (goggles
or face shield), gloves, boots, a long-sleeved
shirt or a jacket, and long pants.
 Never consume alcohol or drugs before or while

EBU24905Checking and lubricating the cablesThe operation and the condition of all control ca-
bles should be checked before each ride, and the
cables and cable ends should be lubricated if nec-
essary. If a cable is damaged or does not move
smoothly, have a Yamaha dealer check or replace
it.
WARNING
EWB02582Inspect cables frequently and replace if
damaged. Corrosion can result when the ca-
ble sheaths become damaged, and cables
can also become frayed or kinked, which
could restrict the operation of controls and
lead to an accident or injury.
 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
accident or collision. EBU24913Checking and lubricating the front and
rear brake leversThe operation of the front and rear brake levers
should be checked before each ride, and the lever
pivots should be lubricated if necessary.
