CVT System
On this ATV, the approximate gear ratio difference between high and low range
is 1:2.05.This difference in gearing affects the operation of the CVT, especially
at speeds less than 7 MPH, due to the system’s dependence on engine speed.
By switching to low range while operating at low ground speeds, the air
temperature in the clutch will be reduced. Reducing the temperature inside the
clutch cover extends the life of the CVT components (belt, cover, etc.).
Adjust the center distance of the CVT:
1. Remove crankcase filter cover, cover protector and crankcase cover.
2. Loosen the left link bolts③, right link bolts② and engine mounting bolts ①.
3. Adjust the supporting bolt and measure the size L,D;
4. Tighten the engine mounting bolts ①, right link bolts ②and left link bolts③;
5. Install crankcase filter cover, cover protector and crankcase cover.
NOTE:
1. Never operate the engine when adjusting the CVT;
2. The adjustment of the CVT must be done by your dealer.
