4. Remove the spark plug.

5. Loosen the carburetor drain screw (1).

6. Turn the engine over several times

using the electric start.

7. Dry the spark plug and reinstall, or replace it with a new plug.

8. Tighten the carburetor drain screw.

9. Turn the fuel valve on.

10. Attempt t o start the engine. If necessary, repeat the drying

procedure.

11. Take the ATV to your dealer for service as soon as possible,

whether you succeed in starting it or not.

on page 105 for drying out the PVT.

If your vehicle becomes immersed, major engine damage can

result if the machine is not thoroughly inspected. Take the vehicle

to your dealer before starting the engine.
