EVAP System (Evaporative Emission Control System)

(If equipped)
When required by environmental emissions regulations, this vehicle is manufactured with a fuel evaporation
system (EVAP) to prevent fuel vapors entering the atmosphere from the fuel tank and fuel system.
During routine maintenance, visually inspect all hose connections for leaks or blockage. Ensure the hoses
are not clogged or kinked, which could damage the fuel pump or distort the fuel tank. No other maintenance
is necessary.
Contact your dealer if repair is required. Do not modify the EVAP system. Modifying any part of this system
will violate environmental emissions regulations.
Catalytic Converter
CAUTION: Please pay attention to the following to protect your catalytic converter:
• Use only unleaded gasoline. Even gasoline that contains a little lead could damage the reactive metals
contained in the catalytic converter and disable it.
• Never add rust preventive oil or engine oil into the muffler. Doing so could damage the catalytic
converter.

CVT System
This vehicle has a Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT)
system that utilizes a belt and clutch pulleys to automatically vary
transmission ratios, allowing infinite variability between the highest
and lowest vehicle speeds with no discrete steps or shifts.
The CVT consists of a primary clutch 1 , which is an advanced
form of centrifugal clutch that is mounted to the engine crankshaft
A .The primary clutch also contains a one-way bearing that creates
B A
an engine braking feature to slow the vehicle without having to use
the hand or foot brake.
The secondary clutch 2 is mounted to the input shaft of the 2 3 1
transmission B and serves two functions: As a “slave” pulley to
the primary clutch, and to provide a torque sensing element. The
drive belt 3 is a heavy duty V-belt that connects the engine and
transmission pulleys.
A CVT housing and cover encloses the clutches and belt assembly.
It has inlet and outlet cooling ducts that route air to cool the
components, and they should be inspected. The CVT components
do not contain any user maintenance items. Contact your dealer
for service.
NOTE:
To extend belt life, use low forward gear in heavy pulling situations and when operating at less than 7 miles
per hour (11 kilometers per hour) for extended periods of time. If towing the vehicle is necessary, shift the
transmission into neutral for better mobility and to prevent damage to the belt.
68
FEATURES & CONTROLS
Engine Braking System (EBS)
This vehicle is equipped with an engine braking system. The CVT primary clutch mounted to the engine
crankshaft contains a one-way bearing that creates engine braking, which occurs when the throttle is
completely closed, the engine is below the primary clutch engagement RPM, and the vehicle is at speed. It
uses the engine’s compression/resistive force to slow the over-driving transmission speed via the CVT drive
belt, thereby slowing the entire vehicle gradually.
Engine braking is always active, and offers the most benefit when:
Used in conjunction with 4WD and 4WD Diff-Lock Modes.
Descending steep or slippery hills.
Descending rocky downhill terrain.
Slowing while towing heavy loads.
Assisting normal brake system application.
EBS is not a substitute for the vehicle brake system, although increased brake pad and disc life are realized
when EBS assists normal brake system operation. The EBS is non-adjustable, and does not contain any
user maintenance items. Contact your dealer for service.

operation section of this manual.
• Keep hands clear of wire rope, hook and fairlead opening during operation.
• Always use the supplied hook strap for applying tension when spooling in wire rope.
• Stand clear of wire rope and load during operation.
• Keep others away.
• Inspect winch installation and wire rope condition before operating the winch
• Do not use the winch as a hoist.
• Do not use the winch to move people.
• Do not exceed the rated capacity of the winch.
• Never touch wire rope or hook while in tension.
• Be certain the anchor point you select will withstand load.
• Never attach wire rope back onto itself. Use a chain or tree trunk protector on the anchor point.
76
FEATURES & CONTROLS
• Prior to initiating a winching operation, be sure any element which can interfere with safe winching is
removed.
• Do not disengage the winch drum when it is under load or the wire rope is in tension.
• Take your time. Poor rigging of the wire rope and load causes accidents.
• The wire rope must always spool onto the drum in the direction indicated by the rotation indicator.
To avoid injury and property damage:

• Do not use the winch to secure the vehicle or a load for transport.
• Do not submerge the winch in water.
• Do not use the winch to tow other vehicles.
• Wear heavy leather gloves when handling the wire rope.
• Never winch with less than 5 wraps of wire rope around the drum.
• Caution should be used if the vehicle is tied down for a winching operation. This may lead to damage
to the frame.

FEATURES & CONTROLS
Winch Operation
(Select Markets) Your vehicle may be equipped with a winch that can pull certain capacities and types of
loads. It is useful for vehicle self-recovery when stuck, assisting another vehicle in recovery, moving fallen
trees, removing brush, etc.
Consider practicing the operation and use of your winch before you actually need to use it.
The safety warnings, operating precautions and instructions in this section apply if your vehicle came
equipped with a winch, or if you choose to install an accessory winch on your vehicle:
Winch Safety Warnings

These safety warnings apply if your vehicle is equipped with a winch, or if you choose to install an accessory
winch on your vehicle:
• Read and understand all sections of this manual.
• Improper winch use or failure to correctly follow the winch guidelines, instructions, and warnings in this
manual can result in SEVERE INJURY or DEATH.
• Improper or lack of winch maintenance and service could lead to SEVERE INJURY or DEATH.
• Always keep body, hair, clothing, and jewelry clear of the winch cable, fairlead, and hook during winch
operation.
• Always keep the area around the vehicle, winch, winch cable and load clear of people, pets, and
distractions during winch operation.
• Always wear eye protection and heavy gloves during winch operation.
• Never use alcohol or drugs before or while operating the winch.
78
FEATURES & CONTROLS
• Never allow children under 16 years of age to operate the winch.
• Never attempt to “jerk” a load attached to the winch by moving the vehicle.
• Never winch up or down, or to the sides at sharp angles. This can destabilize the winching vehicle and
possibly cause it to move without warning.
• Never attempt to winch loads that weigh more than the winch capacity rating.
• Never touch, push, pull, or straddle the cable while winching a load.
• Never let the winch cable run through your hands, even if wearing heavy gloves.
• Never release the drum on the winch when the winch cable is under load.
• Never use the winch for lifting or transporting people.
• Never use the winch to hoist or suspend a vertical load.
• Never retract the hook fully into the winch. This can cause damage to system components.
• Never operate the winch or the vehicle if they are in need of repair or service.
• Always turn the ignition swtich OFF and unplug the remote control (if equipped) to prevent inadvertent
activation or unauthorized use when the vehicle or winch are not being used.
Winch Operating Precautions

These operating precautions should always be followed if your vehicle is equipped with a winch, or if you
choose to install an accessory winch on your vehicle:
• Always inspect your winch and winch cable before each use.
• Always use the provided hook strap when pulling cable out or guiding cable in. Never grab the hook.
• Always align the load directly in front of the vehicle and winch as much as possible. Avoid winching
with the cable at a sharp angle to the winching vehicle’s centerline whenever possible.
79
FEATURES & CONTROLS
• If winching at an angle is unavoidable, follow these precautions while operating:
• A. Look at the winch drum occasionally. Never let the winch cable “stack” or accumulate at one end
of the drum. Too much cable at one end of the drum can damage the winch and cable.
• B. If cable stacking occurs, stop winching. Follow the ‘Winch Cable Spooling Guidelines’ section in
this manual to redistribute the cable evenly before continuing.
• Always apply the vehicle’s park brake and/or park mechanism to hold the vehicle in place during
winching. Use wheel chocks when necessary.
• Always maintain at least five full turns of cable wrapped around the winch drum at all times. The
friction provided by the wrapped cable allows the drum to pull on the winch cable and move the load.
• Never grease or oil the winch cable. This will cause the winch cable to collect debris that will shorten
the life of the cable.
• The winch motor and relay connector may become hot during continuous use. When winching for
more than 45 seconds, or if the winch stalls during operation, stop and allow the winch components to
cool for a minimum of 10 minutes before using it again.
• Never operate the winch without running the engine. The engine’s charging system helps keep the
battery maintained. Battery reserve capacity can be quickly exhausted by heavy winch use, rendering
the starting system inoperable.
• Always operate with concern for the environment. Do not purposely damage trees, etc.
Basic Winch Operation

Follow these operating instructions if your vehicle is equipped with a winch, or if you choose to install an
accessory winch on your vehicle. Read Winch Safety Warnings and Winch Operating Precautions on the
preceding pages before using your winch.
80
FEATURES & CONTROLS
BEFORE YOU BEGIN - Realize that each winching situation is unique:
• Take your time to think through the winch operation you are about to perform.
• Proceed slowly and deliberately.
• Never hurry or rush during winching.
• Always pay attention to your surroundings.
• Be prepared to change your winching strategy if it is not working.
• Remember that although your winch is very powerful, there are simply some situations that you and
the winch will not be able to deal with. Do not be afraid to ask others for help when necessary.
1. Always inspect the vehicle, winch, cable and controls for signs of damage or parts in need of repair
before each use. Pay particular attention to the first 3 feet (1 meter) of winch cable if the winch is used
(or has been used) for lifting a plow. Promptly replace any worn or damaged cable.
2. Apply the vehicle’s park brake and/or park mechanism to hold the vehicle in place during winching. Use
wheel chocks when necessary.
3. Release the winch drum and pull out the required length of cable. Always use the hook strap to handle
the hook. Never remove the hook strap from the hook.
CAUTION: Always maintain a minimum of five (5) full turns of cable around the winch drum at all
times. The friction provided by wrapping cable allows the drum to pull on the cable and move the
load.
4. Attach the hook onto the load, or use a tow strap or chain to secure the load to the winch hook. Never
hook the winch cable back onto itself. This can damage the winch cable and result in cable failure.
81
FEATURES & CONTROLS
WARNING: Never use a ‘recovery strap’ for winching. Recovery straps are designed to stretch and
could release excessive energy that can result in SEVERE INJURY or DEATH if the strap or winch
cable breaks. Use only undamaged tow straps or chains that do not stretch.
5. Re-engage the winch drum.
6. Slowly winch in slack of the winch cable until it is gone, then stop and follow the instructions for ‘winch
damping’ to ensure safe operation:
• A. Place a damper on the mid-point of winch cable length to absorb energy that could be released by
a winch cable failure. A damper can be a heavy jacket, tarp, or other soft, dense object. A damper can
absorb much of the energy released if the cable breaks during winching. Even a tree limb can help as
a damper if no other items are available to you.
• B. Lay the damper on top of the mid-point of the winch cable length.
• C. On a long pull, it may be necessary to stop winching so the damper can be repositioned to a new
mid-point. Always release the tension on the winch cable before repositioning the damper.
• D. Avoid being directly in line with the winch cable whenever possible. Also, never permit others to
stand near or in line with the winch cable during winch operation.
7. Stop winching as soon as the job is completed or the load can be moved without the help of the winch.
8. Detach the winch hook, then rewind the cable evenly back onto the drum following the instructions in this
manual.

FEATURES & CONTROLS
Vehicle Recovery Methods
Vehicle Self-Recovery:
A. Release the winch drum and pull out the required length of cable.
B. Whenever possible, pick an anchor point that aligns the winch cable to the vehicle’s centerline as close as
possible. This will help the spooling of the winch cable and reduce the load on the fairlead.
C. Attach the winch hook to an anchor point. NOTE: If freeing a stuck vehicle by attaching to a tree, use an
item such as a tow strap to avoid damaging the tree during winch operation. Sharp cables and chains can
damage and even kill trees. Always respect the environment.
D. Re-engage the winch drum.
E. Slowly winch in any slack in the winch cable, then damper it.
F. Shift to the lowest gear available that will propel the vehicle in the direction of winching.
G. Carefully apply winch power and throttle together to free the vehicle.
CAUTION: Using the vehicle throttle and winching at the same time has risk and is optional. Place the
vehicle in neutral and use only the winch if unsure of your operating abilities.
• H. Stop winching as soon as the stuck vehicle is able to propel itself without the help of the winch.
• I. Detach the winch hook, then rewind the cable evenly back onto the drum following the instructions in
this manual.
CAUTION: The ONLY time a winch-equipped vehicle should be moving and using the winch is for self-
recovery. The winch-equipped vehicle should NEVER use motion to “shock-load” the winch cable in
an attempt to recover a second stuck vehicle. See ‘Winch Shock Loading’ section in this manual for
more information.
83
FEATURES & CONTROLS
Recovery of Another Vehicle:
A. Release the winch drum and pull out the necessary length of cable.
B. Attach the winch hook to the vehicle. Whenever possible, pick an anchor point on the stuck vehicle that
aligns the winch cable to the winching vehicle’s centerline as close as possible. This will help the spooling
of the winch cable and reduce the load on the fairlead.
CAUTION: Never attach the winch hook to a suspension component, brush guard, bumper or cargo
rack. Vehicle damage may result. Always attach the hook to the strongest available portion of the
vehicle frame or hitch.
C. Re-engage the winch drum.
D. Slowly winch in any slack in the winch cable, then damper it.
E. Shift to the lowest gear available on the stuck vehicle that will propel it in the direction of winching.
F. Carefully apply winch power and the stuck vehicle’s throttle together to free it.
G. Stop winching as soon as the stuck vehicle is able to propel itself without the help of the winch.
H. Detach the winch hook, then rewind the cable evenly back onto the drum following the instructions in this
manual.
Winch Cable Care

Always inspect your winch cable before each use for worn or kinked winch cable. Never use a cable that is
damaged. Follow these guidelines for inspection and use:
• A winch cable made of wire rope that is kinked, deformed, or bent is permanently and severely
damaged. Promptly discontinue use of a winch cable in this condition.
84
FEATURES & CONTROLS
• A kinked winch cable made of wire rope that has been “straightened out”, even though it may look
usable, has been permanently and severely damaged. It can no longer achieve its load capacity rating.
Promptly discontinue use of a winch cable in this condition.
• A winch cable made of synthetic rope should be inspected for signs of fraying. Replace the cable if
fraying is observed. Promptly discontinue use of a winch cable in this condition.
• Replace synthetic winch cable if fused or melted fibers are discovered. The synthetic rope will be stiff
and appear smooth or glazed in the damaged section. Promptly discontinue use of a winch cable in
this condition.
• Never replace a synthetic winch cable with consumer-grade polymer rope. Only use cable that is
specifically designed for winch use.
• Never grease or oil a wire rope winch cable. This will cause the cable to collect debris that will shorten
the life of the cable.
• Never operate the winch with a damaged hook or latch. Always replace damaged parts before using
the winch.
WARNING: Replace the winch cable and components at the first sign of damage to prevent SEVERE
INJURY or DEATH in the event of failure.
Winch Cable Spooling Guidelines

After winching is complete, especially if winching at an angle, it may be necessary to respool the winch cable
evenly across the drum. This reduces the chances of the winch cable “wedging” itself between lower layers
of cable. You will need an assistant to perform this task:
A. Release the winch drum.
85
FEATURES & CONTROLS
B. Pull out the winch cable that is wrapped unevenly onto the drum.
C. Re-engage the winch drum.
D. Have an assistant pull the winch cable hook strap tightly to apply about 100 lbs. (45 kg) of tension.
E. Slowly winch the cable in while the assistant moves the end of the cable back and forth horizontally
to evenly distribute it onto the drum.
Winch ‘Shock Loading’

Your winch (if equipped) is designed and tested to withstand the loads produced when operated from a
stationary vehicle. Always remember that the winch, cable and components are NOT designed for shock
loading. Follow these guidelines:
• Never attempt to “jerk” a load with the winch. For example, never take up cable slack by moving the
winching vehicle in an attempt to move an object. This is a dangerous practice that generates high
loads which may exceed the strength of the components. Even a slow moving vehicle can create a
large shock load which can cause damage.
• Never quickly turn the winch ON and OFF repeatedly (‘’jogging”). This is a form of shock loading. This
puts extra load on the winch components, the cable, and generates excessive heat in the motor and
relay assembly.
• Never tow a vehicle or other object with your winch. Towing with a winch produces shock loading even
when towing at slow speeds. Towing from the winch also positions the towing force high on the vehicle,
which can cause vehicle instability and the possibility of an accident.
86
FEATURES & CONTROLS
• Never use recovery straps with your winch. This is a form of shock loading. Recovery straps are
designed to stretch and can store energy. Stored energy in the recovery strap is released if a failure
occurs, making the event even more hazardous. Similarly, never use elastic “bungie” cords for
winching.
• Never use the winch to tie down the vehicle to a trailer or other transporting unit. This is a form of
shock loading that can cause damage to the winch components, the cable, or the transporting unit.

OPERATION OF YOUR ATV
Operation of your ATV
Break-In Period
The break-in period for your new ATV is very important. Careful treatment of a new engine at the beginning of
ownership will result in more efficient performance and longer life. Perform the following procedures carefully:
1. Select an open area that allows room to familiarize yourself with vehicle operation and handling.
2. Place the ATV on a level surface.
3. Fill the fuel tank with gasoline.
4. Check the engine oil level. Add the recommended oil if necessary to maintain the oil level between the
minimum and maximum indicators on the dipstick.
5. Position yourself in the operating position on the vehicle and start the engine. Allow the engine to idle for
a short period before operating.
6. Press the foot brake, select the desired gear, and then release the foot brake.
7. Apply throttle. Drive slowly at first, varying throttle positions not more than ½ throttle for 10 hours or 100
miles, then another 10 hours or 100 miles of not more than ¾ throttle (whichever interval arrives first). Do
not operate at sustained idle or sustained wide open throttle.
8. Do pull or carry any loads during the break-in period.
9. At the end of the break-in period, change the oil and filter (20hrs or 200 miles/320km).
99
CAUTION
During the break-in period:
• Do not load or tow cargo.
• Do not operate at sustained full throttle. Damage to engine parts or decrease engine life may result if
excessive wide open throttle is used during the first 20 hours of use.
• Do not run engine with throttle over 1/2 open during the first 10 hours (or 100 miles/160km) of use.
• Do not run engine with throttle over 3/4 open during the first 10 to 20 hours (or the second 100
miles/160km) of use.
• Use of any oil other than those recommended may cause serious engine damage. CFMOTO
recommends the use of 10W-40 for 2-cylinder 4-stroke engines. Changing engine oil viscosity to 5W-
40 or 15W-40 due to cold or hot environments is acceptable. Reference the chart below for ambient
temperature and viscosity choice.
Recommended Engine Oil Viscosity
100
Pre-Ride Inspection
Before each use of the vehicle, a best practice is to check the vehicle according to the “Perform daily before
operating the vehicle” checklist in maintenance sheet.
WARNING
If a proper inspection is not done before each use, severe damage to the vehicle, severe injury, or death
could result. Always inspect the vehicle before each use to ensure it is in proper operating condition.
101
Starting the Engine
Starting a Cold Engine
WARNING
Engine exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide and can cause loss of consciousness resulting in
severe injury or death. Never run an engine in an enclosed area.
CAUTION
Operating the vehicle immediately after starting could cause engine damage. Allow the engine to warm up
for several minutes before operating the vehicle.
When the vehicle can not be started immediately, do not activate the starting system continuously. Failure to
start the ignition system multiple times may cause the starting motor to burn out.
Starting a Cold Engine

1. Verify the gear selector is shifted to the Parking or Neutral position.
2. Apply the foot brake.
3. Turn the engine stop switch and main key switch to “ ” (ON)
4. Verify the throttle is completely closed, then push the start switch on the left-hand control.
5. Once the engine starts, continue to warm the engine for a short period before operating the vehicle.
102
NOTE
Do not activate the starting system more than 10 seconds on each attempt. If the engine fails to start, release
the start switch, pause a few seconds before the next attempt, then push the start switch again. Each attempt
should be as short as possible to preserve battery energy.
CAUTION
Operating the vehicle immediately after starting could cause engine damage. Allow the engine to warm up
for a short period before operating the vehicle.
NOTE
The engine can be started in any gear if the brake is applied. However, a best practice is to shift into Neutral
or Park before starting the engine. If the neutral indicator light on the dashboard does not come on when the
gear selector is in neutral position, ask your dealer to inspect the vehicle electrical circuit or adjust the gear
shifting system.
WARNING
Excessive throttle operation while in speed limit mode may cause fuel to build in the exhaust, resulting in
engine popping and/or engine damage.

WARNING
When you shift into reverse, make sure there are no obstacles or people, and the area is safe behind you.
When it is safe to proceed, go slowly.
Shifting: Reverse to Park

3. Shift to ‘P’ by moving the gear selector along the shift guide.
NOTE
The gear selector must not be shifted into reverse gear without applying the foot brake.
The gear shift indicators should display corresponding to the actual gear position, if the indicator does not
display, ask your dealer to inspect the vehicle electrical circuit or adjust the gear shifting system.
Due to the synchronizing mechanism in the engine, an indicator may not display until ATV starts moving.
Do not use high gear for continuous slow speed travel or towing, as this can lead to excessive heating of the
clutch system, which may damage components.
106
Hauling Cargo
Your vehicle is equipped with front and rear cargo racks, and a hitch receptacle for towing. Follow these
guidelines for hauling and towing of cargo:
WARNING
Overloading the vehicle, carrying or towing cargo improperly, can alter vehicle handling and may cause loss
of control or brake instability. Always follow these precautions when hauling cargo:
• Always use low gear while towing to avoid clutch wear and belt issues.
• Reduce speed when hauling or towing loads.
• Never exceed the stated load capacity for this vehicle.
• All loads must be secured before operation. Unsecured loads may shift and create unstable operating
conditions, which could result in loss of control of the vehicle.
• When operating over rough or hilly terrain, reduce speed and cargo to maintain stable driving
conditions.
• Use extreme caution when applying brakes with a loaded vehicle. Avoid terrain or situations that may
require backing downhill.
• Weight distribution on the front and rear racks should be as far forward and as low as possible.
Carrying a high load raises the center of gravity and creates an unstable operating condition. Reduce
load weight when the cargo center of gravity is high. When handling off-centered loads that cannot be
centered, secure the load and operate with extra caution.
• When operating with loads extending beyond the rack. Stability and maneuverability may be adversely
affected, causing the machine to overturn.
107
• Carrying a load on only the front rack or the rear rack may cause an imbalanced condition and
increases the possibility of vehicle overturn. Balance loads proportionally between the front rack and
the rear rack, but do not exceed the stated load capacity.
• Do not obstruct the headlights when loading the front rack.
• Always attach to the towable using the hitch point. Never exceed the recommended tongue weight.
• Using chains, straps, rope or other materials to tow objects is not recommended, as these items could
get caught in the rear wheels, resulting in vehicle damage or personal injury.
• While towing, the vehicle should never exceed 10 mph (16 km/h) towing a load on a level surface.
Vehicle speed should never exceed 5 mph (8 km/h) when towing loads in rough terrain, while
cornering, or while ascending or descending a hill.
108
Load Distribution
Your ATV has been designed to carry or tow a certain amount of
load. Always:
• Read and understand the load distribution warnings listed
on the warning labels.
• Never exceed the specified weights.
• Cargo weight should be mounted as low as possible.
• Cargo should be loaded on the racks as far forward as
possible.
• When operating over rough or hilly terrain, reduce speed
and cargo to maintain stable driving conditions.
109
Driving Safely
Responsibilities of the operator
As the operator of this ATV, your common sense, judgment, and abilities are the only factors that will prevent
injury to yourself, to others around you, and/or damage to the vehicle or environment.
Recreational, group, and distance riding

One of the benefits of this vehicle is that it can take you off-road away from most communities. Stay
away from areas designated for other types of off-road use unless it is specifically allowed. This includes
snowmobile trails, equestrian trails, cross country ski trails, mountain bike trails, etc. Join a local ATV club. A
club can provide you with a map and advice, or inform you about areas where you can ride.
Always keep a safe distance from other riders ahead of you and behind you when riding in a group. Never
operate carelessly or make unexpected maneuvers with other ATVs close by. Stay on designated trails and
riding areas, and discourage others from operating in unauthorized locations.
Environment
Off-road ATV recreation is a privilege. Maintain your privilege by respecting the environment and the rights of
others to enjoy it. Chasing wildlife is illegal. Wildlife can die of exhaustion if chased by a motorized vehicle.
Never purposely damage the terrain unless the operating area is designated for that type of activity. Observe
the rule…”what you take in, carry out”. Do not litter.
110
Practice
The driving procedures described in this manual should be practiced at slow speed many times in a large
area with no obstacles. If an incorrect technique is used, your ATV may continue to go straight. If the ATV
does not turn, come to a stop and then practice the procedure again. If the riding surface is slippery or loose,
it may help to transfer more of your weight to the front wheels by moving forward on the seat. Once you
have learned the proper techniques, you should be able to perform maneuvers at higher speeds or in tighter
curves.
Improper driving procedures such as abrupt throttle changes, excessive braking, incorrect body movements,
or too much speed for the sharpness of the turn may cause the ATV to tip. If the ATV begins to tip over to the
outside while negotiating a turn, lean more to the inside. It may also be necessary to gradually let off on the
throttle and steer to the outside of the turn to avoid tipping over.
Remember: Avoid higher speeds until you are thoroughly familiar with the operation of your ATV.
NOTE
Low gear is the preferred transmission gear selection for all forward motion other than prolonged high speed
travel. Do not use high gear for continuous slow speed travel or towing, as this can lead to excessive heating
of the clutch system, which may damage components.
111
Driving procedure
1. Sit upright with both feet on the footrests and both hands on
the handlebars.
2. Start the engine and allow it to warm up. Apply the foot brake,
then shift the transmission into low gear.
3. Check your surroundings and determine your path of travel.
4. Release the brakes.
5. Slowly press the throttle with your right thumb and begin
driving. Vehicle speed is controlled by the amount of throttle
opening.
6. Drive slowly. Practice maneuvering while using the throttle and
brakes on a level surface.
112
Making Turns
To make a turn, steer in the direction of the turn, leaning your upper
body to the inside of the turn while supporting your weight on the
outer footrest. This technique alters the balance of traction between
the wheels, allowing turn to be made smoothly. The same leaning
technique should be used for turning in reverse.
NOTE
Practice making turns at slow speeds before attempting to turn at
faster speeds.
WARNING
Turning at sharp angles or at excessive speeds can result in Support weight Lean into
vehicle overturn and lead to serious injury. on outer foot rest the turn
Avoid turning at sharp angles.
Never make turns at high speeds.
113
ATV turning dynamics
To achieve maximum traction while operating in 2WD or 4WD, the two rear wheels perform as one axle and
turn together at the same speed. Furthermore, when operating in 4WD-LOCK mode, the front wheels will
also turn together at the same speed. Therefore, unless the wheel on the inside of the turn is allowed to slip
or lose some traction, the ATV will resist turning. The special turning technique described in this manual must
be used to allow the ATV to make turns quickly and easily. It is essential that this skill be learned first at low
speed.
Turning on curves
As you approach a curve, slow down and begin to turn the handlebars in the desired direction. As you do
so, put your weight on the footboard to the outside of the turn (opposite the desired direction) and lean your
upper body into the turn. Use the throttle to maintain an even speed through the turn. This maneuver will let
the wheel on the inside of the turn slip slightly, allowing the ATV to maneuver the turn properly.
114
Driving in reverse
To operate in reverse:
1. Ensure the throttle is closed and the vehicle is stopped
completely.
2. Apply the foot brake, then shift the transmission into reverse
gear.
3. Check for obstacles or people behind the vehicle.
4. When it’s safe to proceed, release the brakes, slowly press the
throttle with your right thumb, and back slowly. Vehicle speed is
controlled by the amount of throttle opening.
NOTE
Your ATV is equipped with a reverse speed limiter. The override button cannot be used. Do not operate at
wide open throttle. Open the throttle just enough to maintain a desired speed.
Follow these precautions when operating in reverse:
• Always avoid backing downhill.
• Back slowly.
• When in reverse, apply the brakes lightly for stopping.
• Avoid turning at sharp angles in reverse.
• Never open the throttle suddenly while backing.
WARNING
Failure to use caution when operating in reverse can result in serious injury or death.
115
Driving on Slippery Surfaces
Whenever riding on slippery surfaces such as wet trails, loose
gravel, sand, or during freezing weather, follow these precautions:
• Slow down when entering slippery areas.
• Maintain a high level of alertness, reading the trail and
avoiding quick, sharp turns which can cause skids.
• Correct a skid by turning the handlebars in the direction of
the skid and shifting your body weight forward.
• Driving with 4WD engaged can assist in controlling the
vehicle in slippery areas.
CAUTION
Severe damage to drive train may occur if the 4WD is engaged
while the wheels are spinning.
Always engage 4WD when the wheels have traction or are at rest.
WARNING
Failure to exercise care when operating on slippery surfaces can
result in loss of tire traction and cause loss of control, an accident,
and serious injury or death. Never apply the brakes during a skid.
Do not operate on excessively slippery surfaces. Always reduce
speed and use additional caution.
116
Driving on rough terrain
Whenever driving on rough surfaces such as trails with large rocks
or other obstacles, follow these precautions:
• Slow down when encountering rough terrain.
• Maintain a high level of alertness, reading the trail in front of
you as you drive. Avoid quick, sharp turns which can cause a
loss of control.
• Shift your body weight to counteract the weight of the vehicle
if it tips to one side.
• Driving with 4WD or 4WD-LOCK engaged can assist in
controlling the vehicle.
117
Driving over obstacles
Be alert! Learn to look ahead and to read the terrain as you drive.
Be constantly alert for hazards such as logs, rocks, and low
hanging branches.
Never attempt to cross over an obstacle higher than the ground
clearance of the vehicle.
WARNING
Severe injury or death can result if your vehicle comes in contact
with obstacles. Travel with caution on unfamiliar terrain.
118
Driving through water
Yo u r AT V c a n o p e r a t e t h r o u g h w a t e r w i t h a m a x i m u m
recommended depth equal to the bottom of the footrests. Follow
these procedures when operating through water:
• Determine water depths and current before crossing.
• Choose a crossing where both banks have gradual inclines.
• Proceed slowly, avoiding rocks and obstacles if possible.
• After crossing, dry the brakes by applying light pressure to
the lever until braking action is normal.
WARNING
Avoid operating the vehicle through deep or fast-flowing water. If
you cannot avoid water that exceeds the recommended maximum
depth, go slowly, balance your weight carefully, avoid sudden
movements, and maintain a slow and steady forward motion. Do
not make sudden turns or stops, and do not make sudden throttle
changes.

Drying the CVT system after submersion
If water has been ingested into the CVT housing, the drive belt will likely slip and poor performance will
result. To expel water and dry the CVT housing:
• Drain the CVT housing.
• Place the vehicle in neutral, and raise the engine rpm for several minutes to dry the CVT components.
• Release the throttle and shift into low gear, then test the performance of the vehicle.
• Repeat as necessary until you are satisfied all the water has been expelled. Contact your dealer if
vehicle performance issues continue.
NOTE
After running the vehicle in water, it is critical to have the vehicle serviced as outlined in the maintenance
schedule. The following areas need special attention: engine oil, front and rear gear cases and all grease
locations. If your vehicle becomes immersed, and it’s impossible to take it to your dealer before starting it,
follow the steps described in this manual to remove water from the air box and engine.
CAUTION
Major engine damage can result if the vehicle is not thoroughly inspected after operation in water. If water
has been ingested into the CVT housing, follow the procedure in this manual for drying out the CVT clutch
system. Have the vehicle serviced by your dealer promptly if your vehicle becomes immersed or stalls in
water that exceeds the footrest level. It is important to contact your dealer for service before starting the
engine, as water may have been ingested in the air box and engine.
120
Driving Uphill
Whenever traveling uphill, follow these precautions:
• Always travel straight uphill.
• Avoid steep hills (22° maximum).
• Keep both feet on the footrests.
• Shift your weight forward.
• Proceed at a steady rate of speed and throttle opening.
• Remain alert and be prepared to take emergency action. This
may include quick dismounting of the vehicle.
If all forward speed is lost: 22° maximum

Keep your weight uphill.
Apply the front brake. When fully stopped, apply the foot brake as well,
then shift gear selector into park position.
121
If the ATV begins rolling backwards:
Keep your weight uphill. Never apply engine power. Never apply the foot brake while rolling backwards.
Apply the front brake. When fully stopped, apply the foot brake, and then shift gear selector into the parking
position.
Dismount on uphill side, or to either side if ATV is pointed straight uphill. Turn the ATV around and remount
following the procedure described in this manual.
WARNING
Braking and handling are greatly affected when operating in hilly terrain. Improper procedure could cause
loss of control or overturn and result in serious injury or death.
Avoid climbing steep hills (22° maximum).
Use extreme caution when operating on hills, and follow proper operating procedures outlined in the owner’s
manual.
122
Sidehilling
WARNING
Improperly crossing hills or turning on hills can result in loss of
control or vehicle overturn, resulting in severe injury or death. Avoid
crossing the side of a hill when possible. Follow proper procedures
as outlined in the owner’s manual.
Sidehilling can be a dangerous type of driving and should be
avoided if at all possible. If you do enter into a situation where
sidehilling is necessary, follow these precautions:
• Slow down.
• Lean into the hill, transferring your upper body weight toward
the hill while keeping your feet on the footrests.
• Steer slightly into the hill to maintain vehicle directions.
NOTE
If the vehicle begins to tip, quickly turn the front wheel downhill, if
possible, or dismount on the uphill side immediately!
123
Driving downhill
When traveling down a hill, follow these precautions:
• Never operate on hills over 22 degrees incline or hills too
steep for your abilities.
• Slow down.
• Shift your weight to the rear of the vehicle.
• Always travel directly downhill.
• Apply the foot brake lightly to aid in slowing. Familiarize
yourself with operation of the braking functions during 22° Incline Limit
downhill descents.
• Driving with 4WD or 4WD-LOCK engaged can assist in
controlling the vehicle.
WARNING
Excessive downhill speed can cause loss of control and lead
to serious injury or death. Always reduce speed when traveling
downhill.
124
Turning Around on a Hill
One maneuver that can be used when it’s necessary to turn around
if stranded while climbing a hill is the K-turn:
1. Release the throttle, then apply the hand and foot brake while
keeping your body weight uphill.
2. Shift the gear selector lever to the low gear position. Shut off
the engine.
3. Keeping the hand brake applied, dismount on the right side of
the vehicle if the vehicle is pointed straight uphill.
NOTE: Always dismount on the uphill side when the vehicle is

pointed in a direction other than uphill.
4. Keeping the hand brake applied, move uphill (in front) of the vehicle, and pull on the right handle bar to
turn the steering full left (front brake will now be closest to you).
5. Slowly release the hand brake lever, and use it to control the descent of the vehicle, which will roll
downhill and to your right (as viewed from the vehicle front) until it’s pointing across the hill or slightly
downward. The vehicle’s rolling weight is neutralized. and vehicle remount is now possible.
6. Remount the vehicle from the uphill side and shift the gear selector lever to the parking position, keeping
your body weight uphill. Keep the hand brake or foot brake applied at all times if possible.
7. Restart the engine. Press the foot brake, and shift the gear selector lever to low gear position.
8. Release the brakes and proceed slowly downhill, controlling speed with the brakes, until the vehicle is on
more level ground.
125
Parking on an lncline
Avoid parking on an incline if possible. If it's unavoidable, follow
these precautions:
• Turn the engine off.
• Place the gear selector to parking position.
• Always block the rear wheels on the downhill side as shown.
CAUTION
The rear output shaft is locked when the transmission is in the
parking position.
Crossing paved surfaces

Your ATV is not designed for paved surfaces and is more likely to
tip over. Do not travel on sidewalks or bicycle lanes, as they are
not designated for ATV use. If you must drive on a paved surface,
reduce speed and avoid sudden turns, acceleration, or braking.
If you have to cross a paved road, ensure you have complete
visibility in both directions for oncoming traffic, and determine your
exit point on the other side. Drive in a straight line toward that point.
Do not make sharp direction changes or abrupt accelerations, as it
may result in a tip over situation.

Inspection
The spark plug is an important engine component and is easy to
inspect. The condition of the spark plug can indicate the condition
of the engine. The ideal color on the white insulator around the
center electrode is a medium-to-light tan color for a ATV that is
being ridden normally. Do not attempt to diagnose such problem
yourself. Instead, take your ATV to a dealer. You should periodically
remove and inspect the spark plug because heat and deposits will
cause the spark plug to slowly break down and erode. If electrode
erosion becomes excessive, or if carbon and other deposits are
excessive, you should replace the spark plug with the specified
plug.
NOTE: Specified spark plug: DCPR8E (NGK)
155
MAINTENANCE
Measure the electrode gap with a thickness gauge, and if
necessary, adjust the gap to specification.
NOTE: Spark plug gap a : 0.8 mm ~ 0.9 mm

Installation
1. Clean the gasket surface. Wipe off any grime from the threads.
2. Install spark plug and tighten to specified torque.
NOTE: Spark Plug Torque: 14.8 ft-lb. (20 N•m)

If a torque wrench is not available when you are installing a spark
plug, a good estimate of the correct torque is 1/4 to 1/2 turn past
finger tight. Have the spark plug tightened to the specified torque
as soon as possible.
3. Install the spark plug cap.

4. Install the panels and shifter cover.
156
MAINTENANCE
Spark plug removal to expel water from the engine
If water has been ingested into the engine, it is important to remove the water as soon as possible by
removing the spark plug and using the starter system to rotate the engine for a short period to expel water

CLEANING & STORAGE
Cleaning & Storage
Cleaning the ATV
Keeping your ATV clean will not only improve its appearance, but it can also extend the life of various
components. With a few precautions, your ATV can be cleaned much like an automobile.
Washing the ATV

The best and safest way to clean your ATV is with a garden hose and a pail of mild soap and water. Use a
professional type washing mitten, cleaning the upper body first and the lower parts last. Rinse with water
frequently and dry with a chamois to prevent water spots.
NOTE
If warning and safety labels are damaged, contact your dealer for replacement.
CFMOTO does not recommend the use of a high pressure type car wash system for washing your ATV.
If a high pressure system is used, exercise extreme care to avoid water damage to the wheel bearings,
transmission seals, body panels, brakes, warning labels, air filter intake system and electric system, etc.
Water is not allowed to enter into air filter.
NOTE
Grease all fittings immediately after washing, and allow the vehicle to run for a while to evaporate any water
that may have entered the engine or exhaust system.
184
CLEANING & STORAGE
Waxing the ATV
Your ATV can be waxed with any non-abrasive automotive paste wax. Avoid the use of harsh cleaners since
they can scratch the body finish.
CAUTION
Certain products, including insect repellents and chemicals, will damage plastic surfaces. Use caution when
using these products near plastic surfaces.
Perform repairs
Make necessary repairs to your vehicle before storing to prevent further damage the next time you operate it.
Check the tires

Inspect the tire treads and overall condition. Set the tires to the specified air pressure.
185
CLEANING & STORAGE
Oil and Filter
Warm the engine, then stop the engine and change the oil and filter.
Air Filter/ Air Box

Inspect and clean or replace air filter. Clean the air box and drain the sediment tube.
Check fluid levels

Inspect the following fluid levels and change if necessary:
• Front gear case
• Rear gear case
• Brake fluid (change every two years or as required if fluid looks dark or contaminated)
• Coolant (change every two years or as required if coolant looks contaminated)
• Fuel Level (add fuel stabilizer according to the product label directions)
Stabilize the fuel

Fill the fuel tank with fresh fuel that has been treated with fuel stabilizer according to the product label
directions. Do not allow untreated fuel to remain in the tank longer than 30 days, as the fuel begins to
degrade and can cause damage to the fuel system components.
Battery storage
Remove the battery from the vehicle and ensure that it is fully charged before placing it in storage. Protect
the battery from freezing temperatures, which can damage the battery.
186
CLEANING & STORAGE
Lubricate

‘Fog’ the engine

1. Remove the left side panel to access the spark plug.
2. Remove the spark plug, rotate the piston to the bottom of its stroke and pour approximately 2 oz.(15 mL
~ 20 mL) of engine oil into the opening.
NOTE
Do this carefully! If you miss the spark plug hole, oil will drain from the spark plug cavity, and appear to be an
oil leak. To access the spark plug hole, use a section of clean hose and a small plastic squeeze bottle filled
with the pre-measured amount of oil.
3. Reinstall the spark plug. Torque the spark plug to specification.
4. Turn engine over several times slowly. Oil will be forced in and around the piston, piston rings and the
cylinder will be coated with a protective film of fresh oil.
5. Reinstall the spark plug cap and side panel.
NOTE
Starting the engine during the storage period will disturb the protective film created by fogging. Corrosion
could occur. Never start the engine during the storage period.
187
CLEANING & STORAGE
Engine Anti-Freeze
Test engine coolant strength and change if necessary. Coolant should be replaced every two years.
Storage Area/Covers
Set the tires to specified air pressure and support the ATV with tires 30 mm ~ 40 mm off the ground. Be sure
the storage area is well ventilated and cover the machine with a ATV cover.
NOTE
Do not use plastic or coated materials. They do not allow enough ventilation to prevent condensation, and
may promote corrosion and oxidation.
188
CLEANING & STORAGE
Transporting the ATV
Follow these procedures when transporting the vehicle:
• Turn off the engine and remove the key to prevent loss during transporting.
• Ensure the fuel cap is installed correctly and secure.
• Ensure the seat is installed correctly and secure.
• Place the gear into any position except the parking position, and block the front and rear wheels to
prevent the vehicle from moving.
• Secure both the front and rear of the vehicle frame to prevent the vehicle from sliding or moving during
transport.
CAUTION
Never transport the ATV with the gear selector in Park position. Transmission damage will result.

CALIFORNIA EVAPORATIVE EMISSIONS CONTROL WARRANTY STATEMENT
YOUR WARRANTY RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS
INTRODUCTION:
The California Air Resources Board (CARB) and CFMOTO Powersports, Inc. (CFMOTO) are pleased to
explain the evaporative emissions control system warranty on your 2020 and later-model year off-highway
recreation vehicles (OHRVs). In California, new off-highway recreational vehicles must be designed, built,
and equipped to meet the State's stringent anti-smog standards. CFMOTO must warrant the evaporative
emissions control system on your OHRV for the periods of time listed below, provided there has been no
abuse, neglect, improper maintenance, or unapproved modification of your OHRV.
Your evaporative emissions control system may include parts such as: fuel injection systems, electronic
control systems, fuel tanks, fuel lines, fuel caps, valves, carbon canisters, filters, vapor hoses, belts, clamps,
connectors, and other evaporative emissions-related components. Where a warrantable condition exists,
CFMOTO will repair your OHRV at no cost to you, including diagnosis, parts and labor.
MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY COVERAGE:
The warranty period for this OHRV is 30 months, or 2500 miles, or 250 hours, whichever comes first, except
for “high-priced” warranty parts, which are covered for 60 months, or 5000 miles, or 500 hours, whichever
comes first. If any evaporative emissions-related part on your OHRV is defective, the part will be repaired or
replaced by CFMOTO.
OWNER'S WARRANTY RESPONSIBILITIES:
As the OHRV owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance listed in your
owner's manual. CFMOTO recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance on your OHRV, but
CFMOTO cannot deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the performance of
a scheduled maintenance.
204
As an owner, you are responsible for presenting your OHRV to a CFMOTO dealer as soon as a problem
exists. The warranty repairs should be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed 30 days.
As an OHRV owner, you should also be aware that CFMOTO may deny you warranty coverage if your OHRV
or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unapproved modifications.
WARRANTY PARTS:
The repair or replacement of any warranted part otherwise eligible for warranty coverage may be excluded
from such coverage if CFMOTO demonstrates that the OHRV has been abused, neglected, or improperly
maintained, and that such abuse, neglect, or improper maintenance was the direct cause of the need for
repair or replacement of the part. That notwithstanding, any adjustment of a component that has a factory
installed, and properly operating, adjustment-limiting device is still eligible for warranty coverage. The
following emission warranty parts list are covered:
• Fuel Tank$ • Control Valves* • Control Linkages*
• Fuel Cap • Control Solenoids* • Purge Valves
• Fuel Lines • Electronic Control* • Vapor Hoses
• Fuel Lines Fittings • Electronic Control Module*$ • Liquid/Vapor Separator

at 763 398-2690. 555 Holly Lane N. Suite #30 Plymouth, MN 55447 or the California Air Resources Board at
9528 Telstar Avenue, El Monte, CA 91731.
U.S.A. EPA and CARB Emissions Control Limited Warranty

This emissions limited warranty is in addition to the CFMOTO Powersports, Inc. standard
limited warranty for your vehicle. CFMOTO Powersports, Inc. warrants that at the time it is first
purchased, this emissions- certified vehicle is designed, built and equipped so it conforms to
applicable U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the California Air Resource Board
(CARB) emission regulations. CFMOTO Powersports, Inc. also warrants that the vehicle is free
from defects in materials and workmanship that would cause it to fail to meet these regulations.
The warranty period for this emissions-certified vehicle starts on the date the vehicle is first purchased
and continues for a period of 500 hours of engine operation, 5000 kilometers (3, 100 miles) of vehicle
travel, or 30 calendar months from the date of purchase, whichever comes first. This emissions limited
warranty covers components whose failure increases the vehicle’s regulated emissions, and it covers
components of systems whose only purpose is to control emissions. Repairing or replacing other
components not covered by this warranty is the responsibility of the vehicle owner. This emissions limited
warranty does not cover components whose failure does not increase the vehicle’s regulated emissions.

THE REMEDIES SET FORTH IN THIS LIMITED WARRANTY ARE THE ONLY REMEDIES AVAILABLE
TO ANY PERSON FOR BREACH OF THIS WARRANTY. CFMOTO POWERSPORTS, INC. SHALL

EXPRESS WARRANTIES NOT STATED IN THIS WARRANTY.
208
Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not
apply if it is inconsistent with the controlling state law. This limited warranty excludes failures not caused by a
defect in material or workmanship. This limited warranty does not cover damage due to accidents, abuse or
improper handling, maintenance or use. This limited warranty also does not cover any engine that has been
structurally altered, or when the vehicle has been used in racing competition. This limited warranty also does
not cover physical damage, corrosion, or defects caused by fire, explosions or other similar causes beyond
the control of CFMOTO Powersports, Inc. Owners are responsible for performing the scheduled maintenance
identified in the owner’s manual. CFMOTO Powersports, Inc. may deny warranty claims for failures that have
been caused by the owner’s or operator’s improper maintenance or use, by accidents for which CFMOTO
Powersports, Inc. has no responsibility, or by acts of God. Any qualified repair shop or person may maintain,
replace, or repair the emission control devices or systems on your vehicle. CFMOTO Powersports, Inc.
recommends that you contact an authorized CFMOTO Powersports, Inc. dealer to perform any service that
may be necessary for your vehicle. CFMOTO Powersports, Inc. also recommends that you use only genuine
CFMOTO Powersports, Inc. parts. It is a potential violation of the Clean Air Act if a part supplied by an
aftermarket parts manufacturer reduces the effectiveness of the vehicle’s emission controls. Tampering with
emission controls is prohibited by federal law. If you have any questions regarding your warranty rights and
responsibilities, please contact CFMOTO Powersports, Inc. at 888-823-6686.
