With the engine idling, pull the clutch lever to dis-
engage the clutch and shift into 1st gear, and
then release the parking brake. Open the throttle
gradually, and at the same time, release the
clutch lever slowly. Once the ATV has attained
adequate speed, release the throttle lever and at
the same time, quickly pull in the clutch lever and
shift into 2nd gear. Open the throttle part way and
gradually release the clutch. Use this same pro-
cedure as you move into the higher gears. Be
sure to coordinate the use of the throttle and shift
pedal properly. If the throttle is applied too
abruptly or if the throttle is not released during
shifting, or if the shift pedal is not released before
applying the throttle, the front wheels may lift off
the ground resulting in a loss of directional con-
trol. Avoid higher speeds until you are thoroughly
familiar with the operation of your ATV.

Always open the throttle gradually and
release the clutch lever slowly. Otherwise,
the ATV could wheelie which would increase
the chance of an accident.
