A four-stroke engine operates on the same principle as a two stroke engine but has an extra piston and cylinder which lets more air/fuel mixture into the combustion chamber. This extra cylinder is usually located between cylinders one and two (1-2) or cylinders three and four (3-4). A four-stroke engine has two or more valves per cylinder. These valves open and close during the crank of the engine. If you want to set one up you should-
1) Remove the ATV from crate.
2) Service battery – Put the battery acid in battery. Battery should be charged for at least 3-4 hours with a 2 amp charger.
3) Remove the plastic from the handlebars and fuel tank.
4) Put the handlebars in driving position and tighten. If the hand brake presses all the way in, the rear brake reservoir may have to be bled. This is caused by the position of the handlebars during shipment.
5) On some ATVs, rear wheels are put on backwards for shipping purposes. Check to see if this is so. Then, remove the rear wheels, turn them so that the valve stem is on the outside, and then install.
Instructions for proper air in the tires is located on the left side rear fender by the footrest or refer to your owners manual.
6) Remove the seat. The seat latch is located under the rear fender, in front of the tail lights.
7) Fill engine oil with a name brand engine oil.
8) Fill the fuel tank with unleaded gasoline, and make sure the fuel cock is in the ON position. The fuel cock is located on the right side of the ATV, below the fuel tank.
9) Install battery after it has been fully charged.
YOUR UNIT IS NOW READY TO START.
Make sure the kill switch located on the handlebar is in the on position. The machine will never start if this is off.
The ignition switch should be in the ON position to start the ATV. The ignition switch is a two-position switch. Turn the key to the first notch; this is the ON position.
The left brake lever must be pulled in for the ATV to start.
With ignition switch ON and fuel cock in the ON position, push the starter button (DO NOT THROTTLE ATV). The ATV should start immediately.
This ATV has an automatic electric choke. When the ATV is first started the automatic choke causes it to idle at a high rate for about one minute. The automatic choke turns itself off when the ATV is warm.
Located at the rear of the ATV is a tethered kill switch. It is for safety purposes while training your child to ride the ATV.
Happy Riding!
