Tighten the cap snugly, being careful not to
over tighten. Over tightening the cap can
cause damage to the cap or seal.
The fuel tank capacity is 4.5 liters, 1.2 gal,
including a reserve of 0.8 liters, 0.2 gal.
Use unleaded automobile gasoline with an
octane level of 91 or higher.
NEVER REFUEL YOUR ATV when the
engine is HOT.
Wait 30 minutes after
turning off the unit before refueling. Spilling
fuel on a HOT engine could cause a fire.
Wipe up any fuel spills before re-starting.

Fuel Valve

The unit is equipped with a three way fuel
valve located on the left side of the unit just
below the seat.
The valve has three settings; "OFF", "ON" and
"RES". With the valve in the "OFF" position
fuel is held in the tank and is prevented from
flowing to the carburetor. The valve should be
placed in the "OFF" position whenever the
unit is not being operated. Place the valve in
the "ON" position for normal operation of the
unit. This allows fuel to flow to the carburetor
for normal operating. The "RES" position
allows fuel to flow from the small reserve in
the tank to allow the unit to be taken to a
refueling location.
When you have to switch to the "RES" position
you must refuel the unit as soon as possible.
ALWAYS CHECK YOUR Fuel level before you
start riding your
ATV. Remember: You can
drive further in one hour on your ATV than you
can walk in one day.

Inline Fuel Filter

Your ATV is equipped with an inline fuel filter to
prevent dirt and debris from entering the
carburetor and engine.
Check the filter for dirt or damage before each
ride and at each refueling. Replace the filter if
dirty or damaged.
The filter should be replaced every 600 hours of
operation and at the start of each season.
To replace the filter, first turn the fuel valve to the
"OFF" position. Then carefully compress the wire
clamp rings until the clamp is free of the fuel line.
Slide each clamp away from the filter about ¾".
Remove the filter from the fuel line by holding
the line and pulling the filter. Install the new filter
by inserting the filter into the fuel line and
returning the clamps to the original position. Turn
the fuel valve to the "ON" position and check for
leaks. Inspect the fuel lines for cuts, abrasions
and deterioration. Replace fuel lines as needed.
DO NOT
start or operate the engine if the fuel
filter or lines are leaking. Leaking fuel can cause
a fire.
