Drain the recoil housing afteroperating theATV in verywetconditions. Thisshould
also be done before s toring the ATV. The drain screw is located at the bottom of
the recoil housing. Remove the screw with a 10mm wrench. Reinstall screwonce
housing has been drained.
CAUTION: Make sure the
manual start handle is fully
seated on the recoil housing,
especially when travelling in
wet areas. If it is not sealed
properly, water may enter the
recoil housing and damage
components.
Water will enter the recoil
housing ifthestarter handle is
disengaged from the rope
guide when under water.
After travelling in wet areas
the recoil housing and starter
should always be drained
completely by removing the
recoil.
Do not open the crankcase
drain unless the engine has
ingested water. On 4-cycle
engines, some engine oil will
be lost if crankcase drain is
opened.
On the Trail Blazer, the recoil
handle must be behind the heat
shield for it to seal properly. If it is
not sealed properly, water may
