while starting the engine. Do not squeeze the throttle
lever when the engine is stopped.
WARNING
Operating with sticking or improperly operating throttle controls could cause an accident and lead to
severe injury or death. Never start or operate the vehicle with an improperly operating throttle.
Always contact your dealer for service if throttle problems arise.
Failure to check or maintain proper operation of the throttle system can result in an accident if the
throttle lever sticks during operation. Always check the lever for free movement and return before
starting the engine. Also check occasionally during operation.
