BRP DS70 - Manual (Page 69)

NOTE: This section gives basic func-
tions of the various controls of your ve-
hicle. For more details of how to op-
erate one control in conjunction with
some others, refer to OPERATING IN-
STRUCTIONS further in this section.
1) Throttle Lever
When pushed, it increases the engine
speed that allows the engagement of
the transmission.
When released, the engine speed
should return automatically to idle and
the vehicle will gradually slow down.

2. To accelerate
3. To decelerate
ƽ
WARNING
Check throttle lever operation
before you start the engine. If
the throttle lever does not work
smoothly, check for the cause.
Correct the problem before riding
the vehicle. Consult your autho-
rized dealer if you can't find or
solve the problem yourself.
2) Speed Limiter Screw
This vehicle is equipped with an ad-
justable speed limiter. The speed lim-
iter keeps the throttle from fully open-
ing, even when the throttle lever is
pushed to the maximum.

TYPICAL
1. Speed limiter screw
2. Lock nut
3. Throttle lever cable housing
Screwing in the speed limiter screw
limits the maximum engine power
available and decreases the maximum
speed of the vehicle.
NOTE: DS70 are shipped from the fac-
tory with a restricted speed setting of
16 km/h (10 MPH) and DS90/DS90 X
with a restricted speed setting of
24 km/h (15 MPH).
BRP recommend that all beginners
start off with the speed limiter screw
turned in while they learn.
Adults can unscrew the speed limiter
screw gradually to increase maximum
speed as the beginner becomes more
familiar with the operation of the vehi-
cle.
NOTE: The maximum unrestricted
speed setting for the DS70 is 24 km/h
(15 MPH), and the DS90/DS90 X,
48 km/h (30 MPH).
ƽ
WARNING
Adults should always limit the
maximum restricted speed with-
in the ability and capacity of the
child to operate the vehicle safely.
Never allow the child to adjust the
speed limiter screw.
