Is Your ATV Ready to Ride?
(cont’d)
If you are carrying cargo, also check the following:
Check these items after you get on the ATV:
Cable Check the cable housings for wear. Check
the fittings for looseness. Replace or tighten
as needed.
Lights Make sure the headlights, brake light and
taillight are working properly.
Loading Limits
Cargo
Make sure you do not exceed the load
limits (page 68).
Check that all cargo is secure.
Throttle
Check the freeplay and adjust if needed.
Press the throttle to make
sure it moves
smoothly without sticking, and snaps shut
automatically when it is released, in all
steering positions (page 157).
Brakes
Squeeze the front and rear brake levers and
step on the rear brake pedal to check that
the controls operate normally. Check for
proper freeplay (pages 173, 175). Make sure
there is no brake fluid leakage.
Reverse Assist Lever Check the freeplay and adjust if needed
(page 160). Make sure the lever
operates smoothly without sticking.
