Vehicle Operation

1. To select reverse gear from park,

move the shift lever upward one posi-

tion until the letter “R” is displayed

on the LCD gauge.

2. To select neutral from reverse, move

the shift lever upward one position

until the letter “N” is displayed on the

LCD gauge.

3. To select high range from neutral,

move the shift lever upward one posi-

tion until the letter “H” is displayed

on the LCD gauge.

4. To select low range from high range,

move the shift lever upward one posi-

tion until the letter “L” is displayed

on the LCD gauge.

 NOTE: The high range is for nor-

mal driving with light loads. The low

range is for carrying heavy loads or

trailer towing. Compared to HIGH

range, the LOW range position pro-

vides slower speed and greater

torque to the wheels.

5. To select park, move the shift lever

completely down until the letter “P”

is displayed on the LCD gauge.

Driving the Vehicle

Once the engine’s warm, the vehicle is

ready to be driven.

1. With the engine idling, press the foot

brake pedal to apply the brake; then

select the appropriate operating range

and/or direction with the shift lever.

2. Release the parking brake or place the

transmission in park; then release the

foot brake pedal and press the accel-

erator to slowly add power to start

moving.

3. To slow down or stop, release the

accelerator and press the foot brake

pedal as necessary to slow or stop the

vehicle.

Braking/Stopping

Always allow plenty of room and time to

stop smoothly. Sometimes quick stops

are inevitable, so always be prepared.

Whether you’re stopping slowly or stop-

ping quickly, do this:

1. Release the accelerator; then press the

foot brake pedal to apply the brake.

2. If the wheels lock, release them for a

second; then apply them again. On

surfaces such as ice, mud, or loose

gravel, pump the brake pedal rapidly.

3. Never “ride” the brake. Even main-

taining minimal pressure on the brake

pedal will cause the brake pads to

drag on the disc and may overheat the

brake fluid.

Parking

Parking involves following the previous

rules for braking; then:

1. After the vehicle stops, shift into

neutral.

CAUTION

Always shift into low range when

operating on wet or uneven terrain,

when towing or pushing heavy loads,

and when using a plow. Failure to fol-

low this caution may result in prema-

ture V-belt failure or in damage to

related drive system components.

CAUTION

Never increase engine speed above

idle RPM when in park or belt damage

will occur.

! WARNING

Excessive repetitive use of the

hydraulic brake for high speed stops

will cause overheating of the brake

fluid and premature brake pad wear

which will result in an unexpected

loss of brakes.

! WARNING

Use only Arctic Cat approved brake

fluid. Never substitute or mix differ-

ent types or grades of brake fluid.

Brake loss can result. Check brake

fluid level and pad wear before each

use. Brake loss can result in serious

injury or death.
