Starting & Stopping the Engine
If the engine fails to start after repeated attempts, it may be flooded
with excess fuel. To clear a flooded engine:
1.
Leave the engine stop switch set to RUN (e).
2.
Push the choke lever down all the way to fully OFF.
3.
Open the throttle fully.
4.
Press the start button for 5 seconds.
5.
If the engine starts, quickly close the throttle, then, if idling is
unstable, open it slightly.
If the engine does not start, wait 10 seconds, then follow the
High Air Temperature procedure (page 58).
If the engine still won’t start, refer to If Your Engine Quits or Won’t
Start, page 164.
Normal Engine Stop
To stop the engine, make sure the transmission is in neutral by
checking that the neutral indicator light is on, then turn the ignition
switch OFF (w).
The engine stop switch should normally remain in the RUN (e)
position even when the engine is off.
If your ATV is stopped with the engine stop switch OFF (r) and the
ignition switch ON (q), the battery will discharge.
Emergency Engine Stop
To stop the engine in an emergency, use the engine stop switch. To
operate, slide the switch to the OFF (r) position.
