Regular maintenance includes checking and replacing engine oil, inspecting the air filter, checking tire pressure, and ensuring all nuts and bolts are tightened. Refer to the user manual for specific maintenance intervals.
If your vehicle won't start, check the battery connection, ensure the fuel level is adequate, and inspect the spark plug for any fouling. If these are fine, consult a professional technician.
Overheating can be caused by low coolant levels or a clogged radiator. Check the coolant and clean the radiator fins. Ensure the cooling fan is operational.
Use a high-quality 4-stroke engine oil specifically designed for ATVs. Consult your owner's manual for the recommended oil viscosity and specifications.
Adjust the preload on the shocks to suit your riding conditions and weight. Refer to the user manual for detailed instructions on adjusting the suspension settings.
Listen for a clicking noise when turning, and check for grease leakage around the CV boot. These are common indicators of a failing CV joint.
Remove the air filter cover, take out the filter, and gently clean it with compressed air or wash it with a mild detergent if it’s a reusable filter. Ensure it is completely dry before reinstalling.
The recommended tire pressure is usually listed on a sticker on the vehicle or in the owner's manual. Typically, it ranges between 5-8 psi, but always verify with the manual.
Locate the fuse box, typically under the hood. Identify the blown fuse and replace it with one of the same amperage. Always carry spare fuses for quick replacements.
After riding in mud, thoroughly clean the vehicle to remove any mud from the undercarriage, check the air filter for debris, and inspect the brakes for mud build-up. Grease all fittings to prevent rust.
