HOW TO RIDE

ATV in an Emergency
Your Kawasaki vehicle has been designed and
manufactured to provide you optimum safety and
convenience. However, in order to fully benefit from
Kawasaki’s safety engineering and craftsmanship, it
is essential that you, the owner and operator, prop-
erly maintain your vehicle and become thoroughly
familiar with its operation.
Improper maintenance
can create a dangerous situation known as throttle
failure. Two of the most common causes of throttle
failure are:
1.
An improperly serviced or clogged air cleaner
may allow dirt and dust to enter the carburetor
and stick the throttle open.
2.
During removal of the air cleaner, dirt is allowed
to enter and jam the carburetor.
In an emergency situation such as throttle failure,
your vehicle may be stopped by applying the brakes
and shifting the engine stop switch to the “OFF
”
position. If the engine stop switch is used, turn off
the ignition switch after stopping the vehicle.
