The brakes could malfunction, causing re-
duced braking performance. This could in-
crease the chance of a collision or accident.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD

block the rear of the ATV off the ground and
spin the rear wheels. Check to make sure
there is no brake drag. If brake drag is no-
ticed, perform the adjustment again.
