    • TIRE CHARACTERISTICS 1) Tire characteristics influence the han- dling of ATVs. The tires listed below have been approved by Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd. for this model. If other tire com- binations are used, they can adversely affect your machine’s handling charac- teristics and are therefore not recom- mended.

    CHECKING THE TIRES 1. Measure: • tire pressure Out of specification → Adjust. • The low-pressure tire gauge is included as standard equipment. • If dust or the like is stuck to this gauge, it will not provide the correct readings. Therefore, take two measurements of the tire’s pressure and use the second reading.

Therefore, always follow these preventive measures: • Wear protective eye gear when handling or working near batteries.
  • Page 90 CHECKING AND CHARGING THE BATTERY Since VRLA (Valve Regulated Lead Acid) batteries are sealed, it is not possible to check the charge state of the battery by measuring the specific gravity of the electrolyte. Therefore, the charge of the battery has to be checked by measuring the voltage at the battery terminals.
