Braking Systems
Your ATV unit is equipped with a rear
mechanical drum brake. The rear brake is
applied by squeezing the brake lever on the
left-handle bar.
Proper maintenance of the brake system is a
necessary part of safe operation of your unit. The
brake systems should be inspected and tested
before each riding session.
Rear Brake System Inspection
Visually inspect the brake cable for any signs of
wear, kinking, corrosion or other damage.
Test the brake by applying pressure to the brake
lever and trying to push the unit forward. If the wheel
rotates while the brake is applied, check your brake
cable, brake adjustment and brake pads. If the brake
lever feels hard to squeeze the brake cable may
need to be lubricated or may be damaged.
Lubricate the cable with a cable lubricant available
from your dealership.
When the brake is fully applied there should be a
minimum clearance of ½" of clearance between the
lever and the handle bar grip. If this clearance is less
that ½" your brakes should be adjusted
After riding your unit, be sure to clean any build up
of mud, sand and dirt from the brake cable and
adjuster to prevent rust and corrosion that could
cause cable failure.
Drive Chain
The drive chain will stretch with use and will require
periodic adjustments. To check the chain tension,
remove the chain guard and measure the slack.
The amount of slack in the chain should not exceed
10-20mm or ¼" - ½".
