Braking !! WARNING !! The high range is for normal riding with light loads. The low range is for carrying heavy loads or trailer towing. Compared to HIGH range, the LOW range position provides slower speed and greater torque to the wheels. !! CAUTION !! Always come to a complete stop before attempting to shift from one range to the other or into reverse. Always shift on level ground, or engage the parking brake before shifting into another range or into reverse. To do so, please follow the instruc- tions below: Choose an area suffi ciently large to safely accelerate your ATV to 30 km/h. Accelerate to 30 km/h, then com- press brake lever to decelerate to 0 – 5 km/h.
Repeat this procedure approx. 20 times until brakes are heated up. 3. To engage reverse gear from neutral, move the shift lever out- ward and rearward into the R po- sition. Brake burnishing procedure The service brake is activated by the foot pedal (according to direc- tive 93/14A EC homologation) or via the left hand brake lever (both hydraulic). The right hand lever only activates the parking/auxiliary brake which must not be used as service brake. !! WARNING !! Please note that new brake pads have to be prepared. Don’t put yourself into situations that require an immediate braking unless the brake pads are working properly (this may result in serious acci- dents!). 4 = L 3 = H 2 = N !!
IMPORTANT !! For perfect brake effi ciency you have to burnish the brake pads. 1 = R When using the hydraulic brakes, you must be familiar with the follo- wing points: Page 19
