CONTROL AND PARTS FUNCTIONS
Front and Rear Brakes
The brake fluid in the master cyl-
inder, which is located on the left
handlebar, should be checked
before each ride. The fluid level
can be seen through the plastic
reservoir (1), and should be
maintained between the indi-
cated max (2) and min (3) marks
on the reservoir. On some mod-
els, there is an indicator window
(4)o n the top of the mastercylin-
der. This “eye” will appear dark
when the fluid level is full. When
fluid needs to be added, the eye
will be clear. NOTE: When
checking the fluid level, the ATV
must be on levelground the the handlebarsstraight. If the fluid lev-
el is low add DOT 3 (PN 2870990) only.
The Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) stops the engine in
the even t of a throttle system malfunction and is provided
for your safety. Do not attempt to modify the ETC syste m
or replace it with any after market throttle mechanisms.
Once a bottle of brake fluid is opened, use what is necessary
and discard the rest. Do not store or use a partial bottle of
brake fluid. Brake fluid is hygroscopic, meaning it rapidly ab-
sorbs moisture from the air. This causes the boiling tempera-
ture of the brake fluid to d rop, which can lead to early brake
fade and the possibility of severe injury.
