secure with existing screws. Tighten
the screws securely; then connect the
wiring harness.
Checking/Adjusting
Headlight Aim
The headlights can be adjusted vertically
and horizontally. 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 headlights 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.
4. Make vertical marks which intersect
the horizontal marks on the aiming sur-
face directly in front of the headlights.
5. Switch on the lights. Make sure the
HIGH beam is on. DO NOT USE
LOW BEAM.
6. Observe each headlight beam aim.
Proper aim is when the most intense
beam is centered on the vertical mark 5
cm (2 in.) below the horizontal mark
on the aiming surface.
7. To adjust the headlights, loosen the
adjustment knob. After proper adjust-
ment is achieved, tighten the knob
securely.

Fuses

The fuses are located in a power distribu-
tion module on the right side of the ATV
behind the access panel. If there is any
type of electrical system failure, always
check the fuses first.

Always replace a blown fuse with a
fuse of the same type and rating. If
the new fuse blows after a short

Arctic Cat ATV dealer immediately.


press the locking tabs on either side
of the fuse cover and lift out.
