FUEL VALVE
This vehicle is equipped with an
automatic type, diaphragm style
fuel valve. There are three posi-
tions: “ON,” “RES” and “PRI.”
“ON” Position
The normal position for the fuel
valve lever is in the “ON” position.
In this position, no fuel will flow
from the fuel valve to the carbure-
tor unless the engine is running or
being started.
“RES” (RESERVE) Position
If the fuel level in the tank is too
low, turn the lever to the “RES”
position to use the reserve fuel
supply. In this position, no fuel will
flow from the fuel valve to the car-
buretor unless the engine is run-
ning or being started.
Reserve fuel supply: 2.9 L (0.8
US gal)
“PRI” (PRIME) Position
In this position, fuel can flow from
the fuel valve to the carbureter.
This position is used for checking
the fuel supply system. Turn the
fuel valve to the “PRI” position
when the engine is hard to start
below freezing point.

RES
WARNING
Leaving the fuel valve in the
“PRI” position when the engine
is off can be hazardous.
The carburetor may overflow
and fuel may run into the
engine. This can cause a fire or
cause severe damage to the
ATV when you start the engine.
Always leave the fuel valve in
the “ON” or “RES” position
when the engine is not run-
ning.
