With all the challenges you cna encounter off-road,there's
chance that sometime something may go wrong. This
section gives practical advice to help you deal with a wide
range of problems. Take time to read this section before you
ride.
Drive belt and cover problems
Possible Cause Solution
Driving the ATV onto
a pickup or tall trailer
in high range
Shift transmission to low range
during loading of the ATV to
prevent belt burning
Starting out going up
a steep incline
When starting out on an incline,
use low range or dismount the
ATV (after first applying the park
brake) and perform the K-turn as
described on page 71
Driving at low RPM
or low ground
speed
(at approximately
5-10 km/h)
Drive at a higher speed or use
low range more frequently.
The use of low range is highly
recommended for cooler CVT
operating temperatures and
longer component life
Insufficient warm-
up of ATVs exposed
to low ambient
temperatures
Warm the engine before driving,
the belt will become more flexible
and prevent belt burning
