AVERTISSEMENT
Charge maximale dans la caisse : 136 kg (300 lbs)
Charge maximale du véhicule : 328 kg (723 lbs)
La charge peut affecter la maniabilité et la stabilité du
véhicule.
Lors du transport d’une charge :
Lire le manuel du propriétaire avant de charger la benne.– Ne pas dépasser la capacité de charge maximale pour la benne
ou le véhicule.– Réduire la vitesse et prévoir une distance de freinage accrue.– Négocier les virages progressivement et lentement.
– Éviter les pentes et les terrains accidentés.– Arrimer solidement toute charge – un article mal arrimé
pourrait nuire soudainement à la maniabilité ou être projeté
vers l’avant et heurter un occupant.– Répartir le poids de la charge de façon équilibrée et le plus
bas possible dans la caisse; une charge mal équilibrée augmente
le risque de capotage.Le mauvais usage de la caisse de chargement ou de l’arceau de
protection peut provoquer de graves blessures ou la mort par suite
d’une perte de contrôle, d’un capotage ou d’un accident quelconque.

Red zone: 10500 r/min and above Odometer and tripmeters
The odometer shows the total distance trav-
eled by the vehicle. The odometer can be
used for maintenance and service intervals.
The tripmeters show the distance traveled
since they were last reset. The tripmeters can
be used to record the distance traveled on a
single trip, or to estimate the distance that
can be traveled with a full tank of gas, etc.Push the “SELECT” button to switch between
the odometer “ODO” and the tripmeters
“TRIP A” and “TRIP B” in the following order:
ODO
→ TRIP A → TRIP B → ODO
To reset a tripmeter, set the display to the
tripmeter you want to reset, then push the
“RESET” button until it is reset.
TIP The odometer will lock at 99999.
 The tripmeters will reset and continue
counting after 9999.9 is reached.

WARNING
EWB00411These shock absorber assemblies contain
highly pressurized nitrogen gas. Read and
understand the following information be-
fore handling the shock absorber assem-
blies.
Do not tamper with or attempt to open
the cylinder assemblies.
 Do not subject the shock absorber as-
semblies to an open flame or other high
heat source. This may cause the unit to
explode due to excessive gas pressure. 
Do not deform or damage the cylinders
in any way. Cylinder damage will result in
poor damping performance.
 Do not dispose of a damaged or worn
out shock absorber assembly yourself.
Take the shock absorber assembly to a
Yamaha dealer for any service.
EBU35045Rear shock absorbersThe rear shock absorber assemblies are
equipped with a spring preload adjusting nut,
a rebound damping force adjusting screw, a
fast compression damping force adjusting
bolt, and a slow compression damping force
adjusting screw.
WARNING
EWB02492 Suspension components become hot
during operation. Never touch the com-
pression damping force adjusting bolt
and screw, the rebound damping force
Slow compression damping force settings:
Minimum (soft):4 turn(s) out from the fully turned in posi-
tion
Standard: 2 turn(s) out from the fully turned in posi-

FOR YOUR SAFETY – PRE-OPERATION CHECKS
EBU31584Before starting off, inspect the vehicle to make sure it is in safe operating condition. Use the fol-
lowing checklist and related information as a guide. Also, follow the service intervals in the peri-
odic maintenance chart to keep the vehicle in safe operating condition.
WARNING
EWB00482Failure to inspect or maintain the vehicle properly increases the possibility of an accident
or equipment damage. Do not operate the vehicle if you find any problem. If a problem can-
not be corrected by the procedures provided in this manual, have the vehicle inspected by
a Yamaha dealer. Pre-operation checklist

Clutch fluid
Depress and release the clutch pedal five
times. Check to see if any fluid is leaking out
of the hoses, reservoir, or master cylinder.
Check the clutch fluid level and correct if nec-
essary. (See page 9-47.)TIPIf any leakage is found, or if the clutch pedal
offers little resistance, have a Yamaha dealer
service the vehicle. EBU36972FuelMake sure there is sufficient fuel in the tank.
Refuel if necessary.
WARNING
EWB02522Gasoline and gasoline vapors are ex-
tremely flammable. To avoid fires and ex-
plosions and to reduce the risk of injury
when refueling, follow these instructions.
1. Before refueling, turn off the engine andbe sure that no one is sitting in the vehi-
cle.
Never refuel while smoking, or while in
the vicinity of sparks, open flames, or
other sources of ignition such as the pilot
lights of water heaters and clothes dry-
ers.
2. Do not overfill the fuel tank. Because fuel expands when it heats up, heat from the
engine or the sun can cause fuel to spill
out of the fuel tank.
3. Wipe up any spilled fuel immediately.
4. Be sure the fuel tank cap is closed se- curely.
WARNING
EWB02532Gasoline is poisonous and can cause inju-
ry or death. Handle gasoline with care.
Never siphon gasoline by mouth. If you
should swallow some gasoline or inhale a
lot of gasoline vapor, or get some gasoline
in your eyes, see your doctor immediately.

monoxide poisoning - possibly leading
to death. See page 3-6 for more informa-
tion about carbon monoxide.
WARNING
EWB02691Brake discs, calipers, drums, and linings
can become very hot during use. To avoid
possible burns, let brake components cool
before touching them.
