Kick-Start Lever

If the battery becomes too weak to start the engine, use the kick-start lever to start the engine until the battery is serviced.

  1. Position the vehicle on a level surface.

  2. Lock the parking brake.

  3. Place the transmission in neutral (N).

  4. Fold out the kick-start lever 1 on the left side of the vehicle.

  5. Make sure the engine stop switch and main key switch are in the ON position.

  6. Place your foot on the kick-start. Thrust your heel downward to crank the engine.

  7. If the engine is cold, use the choke as outlined on Choke.

  8. After the engine has started, fold the kick-start lever back into place.

TIP
A 10/12 mm wrench is provided in the tool kit for removing or installing the lever. If not installed, make sure the rubber cap is installed on the kick-start shaft to protect the rider. Store the kick-start lever under the seat in the rear cab when not installed.
