WARNING
Always stop the ATV before changing from
two-wheel drive to four-wheel drive and vice
versa. The ATV handles differently in two-
wheel drive than in four-wheel drive in some
circumstances. Changing from two-wheel
drive to four-wheel drive or vice versa while
moving may cause the ATV to unexpectedly
handle differently. This could distract the oper-
ator and increase the risk of losing control and
of causing an accident.

Throttle lever

1. Throttle lever
Push the throttle lever to increase engine speed
and the speed of the ATV. Because the throttle is
spring-loaded, the ATV will decelerate and the en-
gine will return to an idle any time the throttle lever
is released.
TIP
Before starting the engine, check the throttle to be
sure it is operating smoothly. Make sure it returns
to the idle position as soon as the lever is released.
