[. . . ] Unattended operation without adult supervision could result in injuries. E-TON recommends that both the operator and the adult supervisor attend an ATV safety instruction course. ALWAYS Wear Protective Clothing While operating this vehicle, the driver must always wear protective clothing. Protective helmet with face shield, elbow and knee pads, long leg pants, gloves and hard soled boots should always be worn when operating this vehicle. OFF ROAD Use ONLY This vehicle is designed and manufactured for off-road use only. Operation on public streets, roads or highways is illegal and very dangerous. OBEY all State and local laws and regulations Each state and local governing agency has laws and regulations for ATV operations. [. . . ] Inspect each tire for cuts, tears and punctures. Inspect the wheel rim for dents and separation of the wheel from the tire bead. Replace any tire or wheel found to be damaged. Page 13 3. After every 200 hours of operation the Spark Arrester has to be replaced by loosening the retaining nut using a 10mm socket or wrench. Using pliers turn the sleeve of the Spark Arrester counterclockwise and pull out. Replace a new Spark Arrester and secure it by tightening the retaining nut. Air Filter Wash the element in a non-flammable solvent such as Air-Filter cleaner from your local auto parts dealer. Dry the element completely before continuing. Soak the element in clean engine oil until completely saturated. Squeeze out the excess oil until the element does not drip any oil. Allow the element to dry then reinstall the element and cover. Braking Systems Your ATV unit is equipped with dual front mechanical drum brakes and a rear hydraulic disc brake. The front brakes are applied by squeezing the brake lever on the right-handle bar, while the rear brake is applied by squeezing the brake lever on the left-handle bar. Check the fluid level in the fluid reservoir by checking the site glass for the level. The fluid level should fill at least ¾ of site glass when the unit is setting on a level surface. Test the brakes by applying pressure to the brake lever and trying to push the unit forward. If the wheel rotates while the brakes are applied, check your fluid level and brake pads. If the brake lever feels spongy or does not stop when squeezed, you may have air in the lines. All air must be purged from the brake lines for the disc brake to operate properly. (See purging brake lines). Adjust the brake cable so that the lever has zero free play and a minimum clearance of ½" between the lever and the handle grip when the brake is fully applied. Adjust the cable by using the adjustment wheel where the cable attaches to the lever assembly. After obtaining the correct adjustment, insure that the locking nut is tightened securely against the adjusting wheel to prevent the adjustment wheel from turning due to vibration. Keep your brake cables lubricated with a high quality cable lubricant to prevent rust and corrosion. The cables should be lubricated every 60 days or more often if operated in a dusty or wet environment. After riding your unit, be sure to clean any build up of mud, sand and dirt from the brake rotor skid plate.
