Checking/Adjusting
Headlight Aim
The headlights can be adjusted vertically
and horizontally. The geometric center of
the HIGH beam light zone is to be used
for vertical and horizontal aiming.
1. Position the ATV on a level floor so
the headlights are approximately 6.1
m (20 ft) from an aiming surface
(wall or similar aiming surface).
ATV-0070
 NOTE: There should be an average
operating load on the ATV when
adjusting the headlight aim.
2. Measure the distance from the floor
to the mid-point of each headlight.
3. Using the measurements obtained in
step 2, make horizontal marks on the
aiming surface.
4. Make vertical marks which intersect
the horizontal marks on the aiming
surface directly in front of the head-
lights.
5. Switch on the lights. Make sure the
HIGH beam is on. DO NOT USE
LOW BEAM.
CAUTION
Use only specified bulbs indicated in
the chart as replacement bulbs.
CAUTION
When replacing the headlight bulb,
be careful not to touch the glass por-
tion of the bulb. Grasp the new bulb
