CONTROL AND PARTS FUNCTIONS
Parking Brake
Setting the Parking Brake

two or three times and hold it.
2. Rotate the park brake lock into the
notches on the master cylinder body.
Release the brake lever.
3. To release the parking brake lock,

WARNING
Always check to be sure that the parking brake has been disengaged
before operating the ATV. An accident could result if the parking
brake is left on while the ATV is operated.
The parking brake may relax when left on for a long period of time.
This could cause an accident.
Do not leave the vehicle on a hill depending on the parking brake
for more than five minutes.
Always block the downhill side of the wheels if leaving the ATV on a
hill or park the ATV in a side hill position.
Auxiliary Power Outlet
Auxiliary power outlets provide 12V power for operating accessories such as hand
held spot lights.
Outlets are located on the front headlight pod and/or rear taillight bracket.
Do not use front and rear outlets simultaneously as increased battery drain will re-
sult.
To determine if your vehicle is equipped with auxiliary power outlets, please check
your Owner’s Manual Supplement.
