Starting & Stopping the Engine

Basic Operation & Riding

You can restart the engine while the vehicle is stopped by squeezing
the front brake lever and pressing the start button.

Do not press the throttle lever while starting in gear. Your ATV is
equipped with a start inhibitor system that will cut off the ignition if
the throttle is open while attempting to start in gear.

Once you have started the engine, release the front brake lever, then
apply throttle gradually.

Normal Engine Stop
To stop the engine, make sure the transmission is in neutral by checking
that the neutral indicator lights, and turn the ignition switch OFF (

).

The engine stop switch should normally remain in the RUN (

)

position even when the engine is OFF.

If your ATV is stopped with the engine stop switch OFF (

) and the

ignition switch ON (

), 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 either OFF (

) position.
