Ignition Switch Key
Two keys come with the ATV. Keep the
spare key in a safe place. An identifying
number is stamped on each key. Use this
number when ordering a replacement key.
Ignition Switch
The ignition switch has three positions.

except the accessory plug are off. The
engine will not start. The key can be
removed in this position.
NOTE: The accessory plug is pow-
ered by the battery at all times.
ON position — The ignition circuit is
complete and the engine can run. The key
cannot be removed in this position.

Shift Lever
EFI012A
This ATV has a dual-range automatic
transmission with reverse and park.
Drive Select Switch
FI475A
This switch allows the operator to operate
the ATV in either two-wheel drive (rear
wheels) or four-wheel drive (all wheels). For
normal riding on flat, dry, hard surfaces,
two-wheel drive should be sufficient. In sit-
uations of aggressive trail conditions, four-
wheel drive would be the desired choice.
To either engage or disengage the front
wheels, move the switch to the 4WD
position or to the 2WD position.
The 4WD lock allows the operator to
mechanically lock the front differential to
apply equal power to both front wheels. To
engage the lock from 4WD, slide the
switch up and move fully to the left. To
disengage the lock, move the switch lever
to the right.
CAUTION
Leaving the ignition switch in the ON
or LIGHTS position for a long period
of time when the engine is not run-
ning may cause the battery to dis-
charge. Always leave the ignition
switch in the OFF position when
engine is not running.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to either engage or
disengage the 4WD lock while the
ATV is moving.
