counter clockwise. To decrease the throttle’s travel, thus decreasing the maximum speed, turn the throttle stop bolt clockwise.
The throttle cable should be adjusted so there is 2mm, (1/8”) free travel at the lever before the throttle starts to open.
Rear Brakes
This vehicle is equipped with a mechanical drum rear brake that is both the running brakes and the parking brake.
Safety Tether Switch
The Viper Jr. model is equipped with a safety tether switch. It is located on at the rear of the vehicle under the rear fender. The switch cap must be fully engaged for the vehicle to run.
The cap is tied to a tether that can be worn by the ride or control by a supervising adult. The vehicle engine can be stopped by pulling on the tether until the switch cap becomes disengaged.
This action will stop the engine.
Fuel Tank
The fuel tank fill cap is located on top of the unit just ahead of the seat. The cap contains a vent to prevent a vacuum from forming in the tank as fuel is used. The vent tube must be attached to the cap and inserted in the vent tube holder hole of the handle bar cover while operating the unit.
The fuel cap vent and vent tube must be clean and clear of obstructions for the unit to operate normally. You can check the vent and vent tube by blowing air through the tube. If you can not
The brake is controlled by the long brake lever on the left-handle bar.
The rear brake is the primary stopping brake on your vehicle. Using the rear brake to stop your vehicle will prevent steering control loss.
Parking Brake
The rear brake lever has a button located at the pivot point to lock the brake in the, “ O ”, on position. This should be engaged as a parking brake whenever the vehicle is not in operation.
This feature should be engaged in order to start the engine. The brake lever has a safety switch built in to prevent the engine from starting while the brake is disengaged.
If your engine fails to start, ensure that the engine stop switch is in the on, “ O ”, position and that the parking brake is engaged. blow through the vent tube and cap you must clean the vent and tube or replace them.
Every time you refuel your unit, check the rubber seal inside the cap for cuts, tears and dirt. Clean or replace the seal if it becomes worn or torn.
The seal must be in good condition to insure a proper seal of the cap to the tank to prevent fuel spills. DO NOT allow dirt or other debris to enter the tank when refueling.
Replace the cap if damaged or if it will not seal to the tank.

Tighten the cap snugly, being careful not to over tighten. Over tightening the cap can cause damage to the cap or seal.
The fuel tank capacity is 4.5 liters, 1.2 gal, including a reserve of 0.8 liters, 0.2 gal.
Use unleaded automobile gasoline with an octane level of 91 or higher.
NEVER REFUEL YOUR ATV when the engine is HOT.
Wait 30 minutes after turning off the unit before refueling. Spilling fuel on a HOT engine could cause a fire.
Wipe up any fuel spills before re-starting.
Fuel Valve
The unit is equipped with a three way fuel valve located on the left side of the unit just below the seat.
The valve has three settings; “OFF”, “ON” and
“RES”. With the valve in the “OFF” position
When you have to switch to the “RES” position you must refuel the unit as soon as possible.
ALWAYS CHECK YOUR Fuel level before you start riding your ATV . Remember: You can drive further in one hour on your ATV than you can walk in one day.
Inline Fuel Filter
Your ATV is equipped with an inline fuel filter to prevent dirt and debris from entering the carburetor and engine. fuel is held in the tank and is prevented from flowing to the carburetor. The valve should be placed in the “OFF” position whenever the unit is not being operated. Place the valve in the “ON” position for normal operation of the unit. This allows fuel to flow to the carburetor for normal operating. The “RES” position allows fuel to flow from the small reserve in the tank to allow the unit to be taken to a refueling location.
Check the filter for dirt or damage before each ride and at each refueling. Replace the filter if dirty or damaged.
The filter should be replaced every 600 hours of operation and at the start of each season.
To replace the filter, first turn the fuel valve to the
“OFF” position. Then carefully compress the wire clamp rings until the clamp is free of the fuel line.
Slide each clamp away from the filter about ¾”.
Remove the filter from the fuel line by holding the line and pulling the filter. Install the new filter by inserting the filter into the fuel line and returning the clamps to the original position. Turn the fuel valve to the “ON” position and check for leaks. Inspect the fuel lines for cuts, abrasions and deterioration. Replace fuel lines as needed.
DO NOT start or operate the engine if the fuel filter or lines are leaking. Leaking fuel can cause a fire.

Engine Oil
2 Cycle Engine
Your ATV uses 2 cycle oil to lubricate the engine. The oil is mix with the fuel prior to refueling the unit. Use a synthetic 2 cycle oil and mix at a 50:1 ratio with the fuel.
(About 2.5oz to a gallon)
Never run the engine with straight fuel as sever engine damage will occur requiring the engine to have to be rebuilt or replaced.
Tires and Wheels
Tire & Wheel inspection
It is important to inspect your tires and wheels for damage and wear before each riding session. Inspect each tire for cuts, tears and punctures. Inspect the wheel rim for dents and separation of the wheel from the tire bead.
Replace any tire or wheel found to be damaged.
Operating your ATV with damaged tires or wheels is dangerous. Damaged tires or wheels can result in a sudden loss of tire pressure and control which could result in injuries.
Check your tire pressure before each riding session and at each refueling operation. Always check the pressure when the tires are cool. Use the tire pressure gauge that came with your ATV to check the tire pressure.
Tire Pressure
Recommended tire pressure is:
7psi Maximum (Hot after riding)
2psi Minimum (Cold before riding)
Wheel Nut torque 24-30 N/m (18-22 lb/ft)
Spark Plug
Replace spark plug at the beginning of each season with a replacement plug
NGK BPM6Y/NGK
Disconnect spark plug wire.
Clean dirt from around spark plug base with brush or air.
Remove spark plug with spark plug wrench.
Set the spark plug gap on the new plug to 0.023”
Install the new by plug screwing it in finger tight and then use the plug wrench to screw the plug in another ½ turn.
Inspect the spark plug wire for cuts, nicks or other damage. Replace as needed.
Air Filter
Air Filter Maintenance
To maintain the highest performance from your engine and to reduce excessive wear that could cause engine failure, the engine requires a continuous flow of clean air. Air is taken into the engine through an air filter to clean the air prior to mixing it with fuel and oil in the carburetor.
During normal operation the filter accumulates dirt from the air and will need to be cleaned to maintain the proper air flow. The filter should be cleaned every 30 days, more often if you ride in a dusty or dirty environment and the element should be replaced every year.
The air filter box is located on the left side of the engine. To access the air filter you must remove

the left side engine shield. The cover is about
3x4” box and is attached to the crankcase with two bolts
To clean the filter
Remove the air filter box cover. Remove the filter element from the air box. Clean the screen located in the mounting box behind the element.
Rear Brake System Inspection
Visually inspect the brake cable for any signs of wear, kinking, corrosion or other damage.
Test the brake by applying pressure to the brake lever and trying to push the unit forward. If the wheel rotates while the brake is applied, check your brake cable, brake adjustment and brake pads. If the brake lever feels hard to squeeze the brake cable may need to be lubricated or may be damaged.
Lubricate the cable with a cable lubricant available from your dealership.
When the brake is fully applied there should be a
Wash the element in a non-flammable solvent such as Air-Filter cleaner from your local auto parts dealer.
1. Dry the element completely before continuing.
2. Soak the element in clean engine oil until completely saturated.
3. Squeeze out the excess oil until the element does not drip any oil.
4. Allow the element to dry then reinstall the element and cover.
Braking Systems
Your ATV unit is equipped with a rear mechanical drum brake. The rear brake is applied by squeezing the brake lever on the left-handle bar.
Proper maintenance of the brake system is a necessary part of safe operation of your unit. The brake systems should be inspected and tested before each riding session. minimum clearance of ½” of clearance between the lever and the handle bar grip. If this clearance is less that ½” your brakes should be adjusted
After riding your unit, be sure to clean any build up of mud, sand and dirt from the brake cable and adjuster to prevent rust and corrosion that could cause cable failure.
Drive Chain
The drive chain will stretch with use and will require periodic adjustments. To check the chain tension, remove the chain guard and measure the slack.
The amount of slack in the chain should not exceed
10-20mm or ¼” - ½”.
Copyright ©2008-2009 ETON America, all rights reserved.
Page 11
Inspect the drive and axle sprockets for worn, damaged or broken teeth. Replace as needed.
Inspect the chain links for damaged, worn or loose rivets. Repair or replace as needed.
Throttle Lever
Chain Slack Adjustment
Loosen the axle position lock bolt slightly and turn the chain adjuster nut to take up the excess slack in the chain. Once the chain has been adjusted to the proper tension retighten the axle position locking bolt.
The chain should be kept well lubricated to prevent excess wear and premature failure. We recommend that you lubricate the chain every 15 hours of operation, or more frequently if needed, with a high quality chain lubricant.
The throttle lever is located beside the righthandlebar grip and is operated by using the righthand thumb. The lever is spring loaded and will return to the idle position when you remove your thumb from the lever. To accelerate the unit, simply press the lever forward to open the throttle slide in the carburetor. To slow the unit, reduce the pressure on the lever or remove your thumb and the throttle will return to the idle position automatically.
Adjusting the throttle
The cable should be adjusted to allow for ⅛” free travel before the throttle engages the carburetor throttle slide. To adjust the cable’s free travel, loosen the locking nut of the cable adjuster, and turn the adjuster wheel until there is ⅛” free travel in the lever. Tighten the locking nut to secure the adjusting ring.
The speed of the unit can be adjusted by adjusting the throttle stop screw to limit throttle travel.
Loosen the throttle stop screw locking nut and turn the throttle stop screw clockwise to reduce the

Page 12
throttle travel thus reducing the maximum speed of the unit. Turning the stop screw counter clockwise will increase the throttle travel thus increasing the maximum speed of the unit. Tighten the stop screw locking nut when the desired throttle travel has been established.
NOTE: Your unit includes an electronic speed control that is set to limit the maximum speed of the unit to the standards set by the CPSC for the age of the rider for which the unit was designed for.
Changing Transmission Oil
1. Place an oil catch pan under the unit directly below the transmission box.
2. Remove the transmission box drain plug located on the bottom of the transmission box on the underside of the unit.
3. Remove the transmission box fill hole plug locate on top of the transmission box near the oil tank bracket on the left hand side of the unit.
4. Allow the oil to drain completely (15-30 min).
5. Reinstall the drain plug and tighten.
Torque to 7-10lbf-ft
6. Fill the transmission box with 70cc of
SAE 80-90 gear oil.
7. Reinstall the fill hole plug finger tight.
8. Dispose of used oil at a proper recycling station as required by law.
ATV Break-In procedures
Your ATV requires a break-In period just as with all other internal combustion engines. This period allows the engine parts to seat and wear properly without undue strain which can cause premature failure.
1. For the first two weeks of operation do not run your ATV at full throttle for extended periods of time.
2. You should only fill the fuel tank with a premix of fuel and synthetic 2cycle oil at a 50:1 ratio (Approximately 2.5oz of oil per each gallon of fuel). Use unleaded fuel only with an octane rating of at least
89.
3. Do not operate the unit at more than 85% of maximum speed.
4. Do not over rev the engine.
5. Use light braking pressure to allow the brake shoes to seat to the drum.
Pre-Operation Inspection procedure
The following procedure must be performed before each operating session.
Checking your ATV takes only a few minutes and may save you from serious injuries and costly repairs.
1. Check engine fuel level.
2. Check brake & brake cable operations.
3. Check tire condition and pressure.
4. Check drive chain condition and slack.
5. Check throttle operation and free play adjustment.
6. Check engine stop switch for proper operation.
7. Check steering system. Look for free and smooth operation. Check all fastening hardware.
8. Check all nuts, bolts and other fasteners for loose conditions.
9. Inspect unit for any broken or damaged parts.
10. Check all indictor lights and switches for proper operation.
Copyright ©2008-2009 ETON America, all rights reserved.
Page 13
11. Test remote Stop switch for proper operation.
12. Test safety tether switch for proper operation.
13. Insure you are wearing proper clothing and protective gear. Helmet, Gloves
Pads etc.
Starting Procedure
The following procedure must be followed each time you start your unit.
Park the unit on a level surface and lock the parking brake.
1. Turn the fuel valve to the “ON” position.
2. Turn the engine stop switch to the
“ON” position.
3. Set the carburetor choke to closed,
“ON”, position by pushing the choke lever up fully.
4. Apply slight pressure to the throttle lever.
5. Pull the starter handle sharply on the left-handle bar.
Your unit should start within 1 or 2 pulls of the starter handle. If the unit fails to start check the following.
1. Engine stop switch is “ON”.
2. Parking Brake Locked “ON”.
3. Tether switch is fully inserted.
4. If you used the remote switch to stop the unit you must press the run button to reset the receiver stop switch.
Driving your ATV
Your ATV should only be driven in an area that is designated for this use. Insure that the area is free of obstacles and other dangers that could cause a loss of control. Check with your local authorities for any regulations regarding the use of your ATV.
Always keep your feet on the footrests and your hands on the handle bar grips while operating your ATV. Doing so will give you the best control of the unit.
Start your ATV by following the starting procedure above and allow the engine a few minutes to warm up before releasing the parking brake.
Start the unit by slowly increasing the throttle until the unit begins moving.
Turning your ATV
Learning to turn your ATV requires you to learn to shift your weight and control the throttle to allow the rear wheels to turn properly. When making a turn, the wheels on the outside of the turn must travel a wider radius and thus a greater distance than the inside wheels of the turn. Since the rear axle does not permit a different rate of rotation, it is not enough to merely steer your ATV into the turn.
To turn properly, steer in the direction of the turn and lean your body to the inside of the turn while supporting your weight on the outer footrest. Use the throttle to maintain power throughout the turn.
If you do not use this turning technique the unit will have a tendency to continue in a straight line.
If this occurs, release the throttle lever to allow the unit to stop.
Avoid braking or accelerating until you have regained directional control.
