SAFETY INFORMATION
The QUAD is not a toy: driving it may be dangerous.
The QUAD is driven differently form from other vehicles such as
cars and motorbikes. Even during routine manoeuvres like turns,
driving on hills or over obstacles, collisions or tumbles can be quickly
produced, if precautions are not taken.
WARNING
Not following these instructions may lead to grave injuries or even
death.
- Do not drive the QUAD before reading the sections: "Safety
information", "Use of the QUAD", and "Main parts of the vehicle".
Even if you are an experienced QUAD driver, not all makes and
models are equal and it is necessary to know the machine in depth
before starting on your first outing.
- You are not allowed to carry a passenger, and the vehicle is not
equipped for that purpose.
- Sit correctly with both hands on the handlebars, your feet on the
footrests and your back straight up.
- Always control your speed according to your skills, the weather
conditions and the ground characteristics. Pay attention to changes
in the ground surface and control your speed when you are not
familiar with them.
- Always perform the routine checks described in this manual before
using the vehicle, to make sure it is in perfect operating conditions.
- Riding a QUAD is not like driving any other vehicle, and you will
notice it specially when cornering. Practise on flat ground with free
of obstacles and with no other vehicles around first. Read the
recommendations in the section "Use of the QUAD" of this manual.
- The same applies to steep climbs or descends. Start testing your
skills with minimum slopes and raise the difficulty level little by little.
Advice on this point is also included in the section mentioned above.
- In case you stall the engine, follow the procedure described in the
manual. If the engine stalls and the vehicle starts going backwards,
follow the special braking procedure described in the manual. Climb
off the vehicle to the higher side of the slope.
- Remember that your safety comes before the machine's, and it is
important to keep this priority in mind.
-When going across a slope, move your weight to the higher side,
read the manual's advice on that. Avoid very slippery slopes or with
loose surface.
- Never try to overcome big obstacles, like rocks or trunks. This
vehicle has not been designed for that; it could be damaged and/or
you might be injured.
- Do not try to make the vehicle slide sideways if you don't dominate
the technique in depth, because it may be dangerous. Like in the
cases described above, do some testing on flat, wide and obstaclefree ground beforehand and follow the advice described in this
manual. You must never lose control of the vehicle.
- This vehicle has been designed to go through a maximum depth
of 35 cm of water. Do not use the vehicle in fast moving water, read
the instructions for this type of terrain carefully. Take into account
that brake efficiency is diminished when wet. When coming out of
the water, brake several times so that they dry more quickly through
friction.
WILD HP -75-
- Always use the tyre size and type described in this manual.
WARNING
- Always stop the engine before refuelling.
- While refuelling, do not smoke, fuel is highly flammable and may
explode under certain conditions. Keep the engine off at all times.
Make sure the area has good ventilation and free of sparks of
flammable sources; this includes lamps. The fuel might catch fire
and cause serious burns. Avoid spilling fuel over the engine, exhaust
or muffler.
- When transporting the quad using a trailer, make sure it is upright
ant that the fuel tap is in the OFF position (closed). Fuel leaks might
take place in the carburettor or in the fuel tank otherwise.
- Fuel is poisonous. In case of accidental ingestion, abundant vapour
inhalation or contact with your eyes, go to the doctor at once. If fuel
gets in contact with your skin, wash it with water and soap. Should
you clothes get wet with fuel, change them.
- Always ride your quad in well-ventilated areas. Do not start the
engine or keep it running in closed facilities. The exhaust vapours
are poisonous and may lead to loss of consciousness or even death
in a short time.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The vehicle leaves the factory with some unassembled elements,
to make transportation easier. The dealer will make sure each
element is correctly fitted and you will receive the quad ready to
use. This paragraph is purely for your information.
You will find enclosed a carburettor-adjustment kit. The adjustments
must be performed by an expert and only when it is necessary. The
carburettor is already tuned, so changes to its settings are initially
not required.
A spanner for chain tensioning is also enclosed to adjust the chain
tension and centre the swing arm axle. Do not lose it; you will make
good use of it.

Make sure you release the parking brake before operating the
throttle.
You are recommended to attach the cable to a strong point, as it is
important that the cable is not accidentally released in any case.
(For example, the cable may be attached to your trousers, jacket,
to your wrist... but always to a part where it will not come off easily).

is used in combination with the clutch when changing gears.
(E)
STARTER
The starter (F) is a mechanism that opens the throttle to a certain
degree, without having to move the throttle grip, so as to favour the
engine when cold. The engine will reach the optimal operating
temperature in a short time and with no need to force it.

protection, attached directly to the frame, will absorb the crash and
prevent the steering and the rest of the vehicle from suffering
significant damage.

backward tumble, so be prudent in climbs and examine the
ground carefully.
FOOTRESTS
WARNING
The footrests and protectors are an essential protection system for
the quad's safe riding. The quad has very wide wheels and it would
easily drag your leg under the wheels, causing serious injuries.
The QUAD features two footrests (E), one on each side. Both
footrests have a grid. The package will protect our feet and legs in
WILD HP -86-
FOOT PROTECTIONS
(F)
The foot protections
(F) are located between
the footrests and the
wheels, and they are
an additional
protection system to
the footrests. By filling
the gap, we have
eliminated the
possibility to damage
our lower limbs with
the wheels.
CHECKINGS TO BE MADE BEFORE RIDING THE VEHICLE
WARNING
Always inspect the quad before every use, to make sure it is in safe
riding conditions.
Always follow the inspection proceedings and programmes described
in this manual. Failure to inspect the machine increases the risk of
accident or breakdown.

FRONT AND REAR BRAKES
WARNING
Always check the brakes before riding. Do not drive the QUAD if
you find a problem in the brakes or if braking capacity may be
reduced, because it might lead to an accident. Should you discover
any problem that cannot be solved using the proceedings described
in this manual, go to a specialised workshop to have the QUAD
inspected.
Disc wear-out is automatically compensated and does not have any
effect on the brake lever or pedal. The only adjustments required
are the brake lever free play, the pedal position and its free play.
Brake lever and pedal
Check the free play in the front brake lever (1). Should it be noticeable,
check the state of the brake pads and look in the "Adjustments and
Maintenance" section of this manual
Make sure the free play of the brake pedal is not excessive (2).
Check the brake pedal position. If you do not find it correct, have it
adjusted at a specialised workshop.
Check the operation of the lever and pedal. They must move smoothly
and when applying the brakes the sensation must be of firm grip in
both of them. Otherwise, have a specialised workshop inspect you
vehicle.
Brake liquid level
Check the brake liquid level. Add liquid if necessary. (See
"Maintenance" section of the manual)
Recommended liquid D.O.T. 3 o D.O.T. 4
NOTE
The vehicle is fitted with D.O.T.4. as standard.
Brake liquid leaks
Check for brake fluid leaks in the pipe joints or fluid reservoirs. Brake
firmly for a minute. In case of a leaking, have a specialised workshop
inspect your vehicle.
