13. CVT SYSTEM

CVT System
On this ATV, the approximate gear ratio difference between high and low range
is 1:1.67.This difference in gearing affects the operation of the CVT, especially
at speeds less than 7 MPH, due to the system's dependence on engine speed.
By switching to low range while operating at low ground speeds, the air
temperature in the clutch will be reduced. Reducing the temperature inside the
clutch cover extends the life of the CVT components (belt, cover, etc.).

When To Use Low Range

The following lists provide a guideline for when to use low range rather than
high.
Low Range
 Basic operation at speeds less than 7 MPH (11km/h)
 Heavy pulling
 Riding through rough terrain (swamps, mountains, etc.)at low ground
speeds

High Range:

 Basic operation at speeds greater than 7 MPH (11km/h)
 High ground speeds
