The drive select lever is used for driving the ATV

page 6-3 for the drive select lever operation.

POTENTIAL HAZARD

Improper use of the parking brake.

WHAT CAN HAPPEN

The ATV could start moving unexpectedly if

the parking brake is not applied before start-

ing the engine. This could cause loss of con-

trol or a collision.

The brake could overheat if you ride the ATV

without releasing the parking brake. You

could lose braking performance which could

cause an accident. You could also wear out

the brakes prematurely.

HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD

Always set the parking brake before starting

the engine.

Always be sure you have released the park-

ing brake before you begin to ride.
