WARNING
POTENTIAL HAZARD
Improper care when refueling.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
Fuel can spill, which can cause a fire and se-
vere injury.
Fuel expands when it heats up. If the fuel
tank is overfilled, fuel could spill out due to
heat from the engine or the sun.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Do not overfill the fuel tank. Be careful not to
spill fuel, especially on the engine or exhaust
pipe. Wipe up any spilled fuel immediately.
Be sure the fuel tank cap is closed securely.
Do not refuel right after the engine has been
running and is still very hot.

Front and rear brakes
Recommended brake fluid:
DOT4
Brake fluid leakage
Check to see if any brake fluid is leaking out of the
pipe joint or brake fluid reservoir. Apply the brake
firmly for one minute. If there is any leakage, have a
Yamaha dealer check the brake system.
Brake levers
Check for correct free play in the brake levers. If
the free play is incorrect, adjust it. (See pages
8-23 and 8-26.)
Check operation of the levers. They should
move smoothly and there should be a firm feel-
ing when the brakes are applied. If not, have the
ATV checked by a Yamaha dealer.
Brake fluid level
Check the brake fluid level. Add fluid if necessary.
