INSPECTION AFTER CLEANING
Remove the rags or wrapping from
the exhaust pipe. Check the drain
tubes on the bottom of the air filter
box and drain any water that has col-
lected in them. For extended lift of
your ATV, lubricate it according to the
“GENERAL LUBRICATION” section.
Follow the procedures in the
“INSPECTION BEFORE RIDING”
section to check your ATV for any
problems that may have arisen during
your last ride.
STORAGE PROCEDURE
If you don’t plan on using your vehicle
for a long time, it will need special ser-
vicing requiring appropriate materials,
equipment and skill. For this reason,
Suzuki recommends that you trust
this maintenance work to your dealer.
If you wish to service the machine for
storage yourself, follow the general
guidelines below:
VEHICLE
Place the vehicle on level ground and
wash the entire vehicle.
FUEL
Drain the fuel from the fuel tank using
a hand pump or siphon.
WARNING
Operating the ATV with wet brakes
can be hazardous.
Wet brakes may not provide as
much stopping power as dry
brakes. This could lead to an acci-
dent.
Test your brakes after washing the
ATV, while riding at slow speed. If
necessary, apply brakes several
times to let friction dry out the lin-
ings.
WARNING
Draining the fuel tank can be haz-
ardous.
Fuel can catch on fire if you do not
handle it properly.
When draining the fuel tank,
always shut the engine off. Do not
smoke, and never drain fuel in an
area where there are open flames
or sparks. Keep pets and children
away from fuel, and dispose of
drained fuel properly.
