Transmission Gear selector
Viper 90R (only)
The Viper 90R model is equiped with a
transmission gear selector switch
mounted on the right hand side of the
handlebars. The switch has three
positions ("R" "N" "F").
"R" = Reverse
"N" = Neutral
"F" = Forward
The selector must be placed on "N" to
start the engine. Once the engine is
started, engine the brake lever and move
the selector switch to the desired direction
of travel.
Always be sure the vehicle has come to a
complete stop and the brake lever is fully
engaged before turning the selector
switch. Always pause in the "N" neutral
positon for a few seconds when shifting
from forward to reverse or from reverse to
forward, this allows the transmission time
to disengage and resycronize.
ATV Break In procedures
Your ATV requires a break in period just as with
all other internal combustion engines. This
period allows the engine parts to seat and wear
properly without undue strain which can cause
premature failure.
1. For the first two weeks of operation do
not run your ATV at full throttle for
extended periods of time.
2. Your first tank of fuel should be a pre-
mixture of fuel and oil at a 50:1 ratio. This
will insure that the oil pump system has
been primed and bled of air that may
have occurred in shipping.
3. Do not operate the unit at more than 85%
of maximum speed.
4. Do not over rev the engine.
5. Use light braking pressure to allow the
brake pads to seat to the rotor and drums.

Changing Transmission Oil

1. Place an oil catch pan under the unit
directly below the transmission box.
2. Remove the transmission box drain plug
located on the bottom of the transmission
box on the underside of the unit.
3. Remove the transmission box fill whole
plug locate on top of the transmission
box near the oil tank bracket on the left
hand side of the unit.
