Nuts/Bolts/Cap Screws

Tighten all nuts, bolts, and cap screws. Make sure
rivets holding components together are tight.
Replace all loose rivets. Care must be taken that all
calibrated nuts, bolts, and cap screws are tightened
to specifications. For proper torque values, see Sec-
tion 10.
Headlight/Taillight-
Brakelight
Each time the ATV is used, lights should be checked
for proper function. Rotate the ignition switch to the
lights position; the headlights and taillight should
illuminate. Test the brakelight by compressing the
brake lever. The brakelight should illuminate.
HEADLIGHT
NOTE: The bulb portion of the headlight is frag-
ile. HANDLE WITH CARE. When replacing the
headlight bulb, do not touch the glass portion of
the bulb. If the glass is touched, it must be cleaned
with a dry cloth before installing. Skin oil residue
on the bulb will shorten the life of the bulb.

Severe burns may result.

cedure.
1. Turn the bulb counterclockwise; then remove
from the reflector housing.

turn the bulb clockwise to lock.

CHECKING/ADJUSTING
HEADLIGHT AIM
The headlights can be adjusted vertically and hori-
zontally. The geometric center of the HIGH beam
light zone is to be used for vertical and horizontal
aiming.
1. Position the ATV on a level floor so the head-
lights are approximately 6.1 m (20 ft) from an
aiming surface (wall or similar aiming surface).
NOTE: There should be an average operating
load on the ATV when adjusting the headlight aim.
2. Measure the distance from the floor to the
mid-point of each headlight.
3. Using the measurements obtained in step 2,
make horizontal marks on the aiming surface.
