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 collected in them. For
extended life of your ATV, lubri-
cate it according to the “GEN-
ERAL 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 LT-
F400/F for a long time, it will need
special servicing requiring appro-
priate materials, equipment and
skill. For this reason, Suzuki rec-
ommends that you trust this main-
tenance 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.
Drain the fuel from the carburetor
using the carburetor drain screw.
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
accident.
Test your brakes after washing
the ATV, while riding at slow
speed. If necessary, apply
brakes several times to let fric-
tion dry out the linings.
WARNING
Draining the fuel tank can be
hazardous.
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.
