After washing your ATV, test your brakes by riding at a
slow speed. If necessary, apply brake several times to let
the friction dry out the brake linings. Wet brakes may not
provide as much stopping power as dry brakes.
WARNING:
Operating the ATV at high speeds when the brakes are
wet could result in serious personal injury.
STORING THE ATV
If you do not use the ATV for a long time, it will need special
service requiring appropriate materials, equipment, and skill.
For this reason, we recommend you trust this maintenance
work to an authorized service center. If you wish to service the
machine for storage yourself, follow the general guidelines.
VEHICLE:
Place the vehicle on level ground.
Wash the vehicle.
