SOURCE OF EMISSIONS The combustion process produces carbon monoxide, oxide of nitrogen and hydrocarbons. Control of hydro carbons and oxides of nitrogen is very important because, under certain conditions, they react to form photochemical smog when subjected 10 sunlight. Carbon monoxide does not react in the same way, but it is toxic . Honda Motor Co., ltd. uti l izes various systems to reduce carbon monoxide, oxides of nitrogen, and hydrocarbon. EXHAUST EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM The exhaust emission control system is composed of 8 lean carburetor setting . and no adjustments should be made except for high altitude setting and idle speed adjustment w ith the throttle stop screw. The exhaust emission control system is separate from the crankcase emi ssion control system . CRANKCASE EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM The engine is equipped with a closed crankcase system to prevent discharging crankcase emissions into the atmosphere. Blow-by gas is returned to the combustion chamber through the air cleaner and carburetor. CARBURETOR AIR CLEANER HOUSING q Fresh air . . Blow-by gas 1-49 GENERAL INFORMATION SERVICING THE HONDA U.S.A. Only Maintenance, replacem ent or repair of the emission control devices and systems may be performed by any ATV repair establishment or individual using parts that are "certified " to EPA standards. PROHIBITED ACTIONS The following prohibitions apply to everyone with respect to the engine's emission control system. You may not remove or disable any device or element of design that may affect an engine's emission levels. This restriction applies before and after the engine in placed in service. NOISE EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM (Except U type) TAMPERING WITH THE NOISE CONTROL SYSTEM IS PROHIBITED: State laws prohibit, or Canadian provincial laws may prohibit the following acts or the causing thereof: (1 ) The removal or rendering inoperative by any person, other than for purposes of maintenance, repair or replacement, of any device or element of design incorporated into any new vehicle for the purpose of noise control prior to its sale or delivery to the ultimate purchaser or while it is in use; or (2) the use of the vehicle aher such device or element of design has been removed or rendered inoperative by any person. AMONG THOSE ACTS PRESUMED TO CONSTITUTE TAMPERING ARE TH E FOLLOWING ACTS: 1. Removal of, or puncturing the muffler, baffles, header pipes or any other component which conducts exhaust gases. 2. Removal of, or puncturing of any part of the intake system. 3. Lack of proper maintenance. 4. Replacing any moving parts of the vehicle, or parts of the exhaust or intake system, with parts other then those specified by the manufacturer. NOISE EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM (U type only) TAMPERING WITH THE NOISE CONTROL SYSTEM IS PROHIBITED: law may prohibit: (1) The removal or rendering inoperative by any person, other than for purposes of maintenance, repair or replacement, of any device or element of design incorporated into any new vehicle for the purpose of noise control prior to its sale or delivery to the ultimate purchaser or while it is in use; or (2) the use of the vehicle aher such device or element of design has been removed or rendered inoperative by any person. FUEL PERMEATION EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM (After '07) This AlV complies with the Fuel Permeation Emission Control regulations of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the California Air Resources Board (CAR B), and Environment Canada. The fuel tank, fuel hoses, and fuel vapor charge hoses used on this AlV incorporate fuel permeation control technologies. Tampering with the fuel tank, fuel hoses, or fuel vapor charge hoses to reduce or defeat the effectiveness of the fuel permeation technologies is prohibited by fed eral regulations. REBUILT ENGINE When you rebuild the engine including a major overhaul in which you replace the engine's pistons or power assemblies or make other changes that significantly increase the service life of the engine, the vehicle will continue to comply with all emissions regulations if you: - Make su re you are technically qualified to rebuild the engine and have the proper tools Use only Genuine Honda parts or equivalents Make sure to maintain all specifications as described in this Service Manual 1-50 2.

PILOT SCREW ADJUSTMENT IDLE DROP PROCEDURE • The pi lot screw is factory pre-set and no adjust- ment is necessary unless the pilot screw is replaced . • Use a tachometer with graduations of 50 rpm (min" ) or smaller that will accurately indicate a 50 rpm (min" ) cha nge.

Stop and go riding for 10 minutes is sufficient. 3. Stop the engine and connect a tachometer according to the tachometer manufacturer's instructions. 4. Start the engine and adjust the idle speed with the thronle stop screw. IDLE SPEED: 1,400:t 100 rpm (min-' ) 5. Turn the pilot screw in or out slowly to obtain the highest engine speed. 6. Lightly open the throttle 2-3 times, then ad just the idle speed wi th the thronle stop screw. 7. Turn the pilot screw in gradually until the engine speed drops by 100 rpm (min 'I. B. Turn the pilot screw out to the final opening . FINAL OPENING: 3 /4 tum out from the position obtained step #7 9. Readjust the idle speed with the thronle stop screw. 5-19 FUEL SYSTEM HIGH ALTITUDE ADJUSTMENT (except U type) At high altitude, the standard carburetor air-fuel mixture will be too rich. Performance will decrease, and fuel consumption will increase. A very rich mixture will also foul the spark plug and cause hard starting. Operation at an altitude that differs from that at which this engine was certi fied, for extended periods of time, may increase emissions. High altitude performance can be improved by specific modifications to the carburetor. If your customer always operates the A TV at altitudes above 6,500 feet (2.000 meters). you should perform this carburetor modification . Even with carbu retor modification, engine horsepower will decrease about 3.5% for each 1,ODD-foot (300-meter) i ncrease in altitude. The effect of altitude on horsepower will be grea ter than this if no carburetor modification is made. This engine, when operated at high altitude with the carburetor modifications for high altitude use, will meet each emission standard throughout its useful life. The high altitude carburetor adjustment is performed as follows: Remove the carburetor (page 5-6) and the floa t chamber. Replace the standard main jet with the high altitude type. HIGH ALTITUDE MAIN JET: 11 158 Check that the O-ring on the float chamber is in good condition and replace it with a new one if necessary. Install the floal chamber and the carburetor. Screw in the pilot screw the specified number of turns from the factory preset position using the special tool. TOOL: Pilot screw w ren ch 07KMA·MN90101 or 07KMA·MN9Al00 (U .S.A .onlv) HIGH ALTITUDE PILOT SCREW OPENING: 114 tum in from initial opening Start the engine and warm it up. Adjust the idle speed at high altitude w ith the throttle stop screw to ensure proper high altitude operation. IDLE SPEED: 1,400:t 100 rpm (min" , NOTICE when the carburetor has been modified for high altitude operation, the air-fuel mixture will be too lean for low altitude use. Operation at altitudes below 5,000 feet (1,500 m} with a modified carburetor may cause the engine overheat, resulting in serious engine damage and increased exhaust emissions. 5-20 FUEL SYSTEM For use at low attitudes, you should return the carburetor to original factory specifications. Replace the main jet with the standard main jet, and screw out the pilot screw the specified number of turns from the high altitude setting. STANDARD MAIN JET: 11162 TOOL: Pilot screw wrench 07KMA-MN90101 or 07KMA-MN9Al00 (U.S.A.only) LOW ALTITUDE PILOT SCREW OPENING: 114 tum out from the high a ltitud e setting Warm up the engine and adjust the idle speed at low altitude with the throttle stop screw.

If your kit does not have instructions, use the procedures provided hear. Check the tire for puncturing objects. Chalk mark the punctured area and remove the puncturing objects. Inspect and measure the injury. Tire repairs for injuries larger than 15 mm (518 in) should be a section repair. Section repairs should be done by a professional tire repair shop. If the injury is smaller than 15 mm (5/8 in), proceed with the repai r as described here. Install a rubber plug into the injury as follows: Apply a cement to a plug inserting needle and work the needle into the injury to clean and lubricate it. Do this three times. Do not let the cement dry . Insert and center a rubber plug through the eye of the inserting needle. Apply cement to the rubber plug. Push the inserting needle with the plug into the injury until the plug is slightly above the tire. 8e careful nOf to push !h8plugalltlle way into the tIre to prevent It from falling inSIde 14-16 LEVERAGE BAR Twist the needle and remove it from the tire; the plug will stay i n the tire. ~_ _- - - LEVERAGE BAR FRONT WHEEL/SUSPENSION/STEERING Trim the plug 6 mm (1/4 in ) above the tire surface. Repeat the above procedure if the puncture is large. Do not use more than two plugs per injury. Allow the repair to dry. Drying time will vary with air temperature. Refer to the tire repair kit manufacturer's recommendations. Inflate the tire and test the seal by dabbing a small amount of cement around the plug. Escaping air will cause a bubble in the cement. If there is leakage, remove the t ire (page 14-15) and apply a cold patch to the inside of the tire as described. If a plug has been inserted, trim it even with the inner tire surface. Temporarily place a rubber patch that is at least twice the size of the puncture over the injury. Make a mark around the patch, slightly larger than the patch itself. Rough the area marked inside the tire with a tire buffer or a wire brush. Clean the rubber dust from the buffed area. Apply cement over the area marked and allow it to dry until tacky. ;::===================~ Do not touch the cement with dirty or greasy hands. Remove the lining from the patch and center over the injury. Press the patch against the injury using a special roller. 14-17 FRONT WHEEL/SUSPENSION/STEERING ASSEMBLY Install the tire onto the rim where the rim shoulder width is the narrowest, to simplify installation.

For tire information, refer to 14-15. For brake system service, refer to 16-3. For rear driving mechanism service, refer to 18-3. A jack or other support is required to support the vehicle. Use genuine Honda replacement bolts and nuts for all suspension pivots and mounting points. When using the lock nut wrench, use a deflecting beam type torque wrench 20 i nches long. The lock nut wrench increases the torque wrench's leverage, so the torque wrench reading will be less than the torque actually applied to the lock nut. The specification given is the actual torque applied to the lock nut, not the reading on the torque wrench. Do not overtighten the lock nut. The specification later in the text gives both actual and indicated.

Use an OSHA-approved vacuum cleaner. NOTICE Spilled brake fluid will severely damage the plastic pans and painted surfaces. It is also harmful to some rubber pans. Be careful whenever you remove the reservoir cap: make sure the reservoir ;s horizontal first. • A contaminated brake lining, drum, disc or pad reduces stopping power. Discard contaminated linings or pads, and dean a contaminated drum or disc with a high quality brake digreasing agent. • Check the brake system by applying the brake leve r after the air bleeding. • Never allow contaminates (dirt, water, etc.) to get into an open reservoir. • Once the hydraulic system has been opened, or if the brake feels spongy, the system must be bled. • Always use fresh DOT 4 brake fluid from a sealed container when servicing the system. Do not mix different types of fluid as they may not be compatible. • Always check brake operation before ridi ng the vehicle.

Also, if the connector is disconnected when current is flowing, the excessive voltage may damage the ECM. Always turn off the ignition switch before servicing. • A faulty ignition system is often related to poor connections. Check Ihose connections before proceeding. • Make sure the battery is adequately charged. Using the starter motor with a weak battery results in a slower engine cranking speed as well as no spark at the spark plug. • This vehicle's spark plug is equipped with iridium type electrode.

The automatic transmission unit of the Hondamatic is mounted inside the crankcase. Removal/ installation of the aut omatic transmission is accomplished by separating the crankcase (page 13-8). Refer to page 13-6 if drive performance failure is caused by the mechanical system. • Do not disassemble the automatic transmission unit. Replace the automatic transmission unit as an assembly when it is faulty. • Read "Before Starting Troubleshooting" carefully, and inspect and troubleshoot the Hondamatic system according to the Troubleshooting. Observe each step of the procedures one by one. Note the problem code and related system before starting diagnosis and troubleshooting . • When the Engine Control Module (ECM) detects a problem with the Hondamatic system, it stops the automatic transmission function and the gear position indicator blinks ~--". • After perlorming troubleshooting (including initial setting; 24-6). erase the problem code(s) and test-drive the vehicle to be sure that the problem(s) has/have been removed . • The ECM may be damaged if dropped. Also, if a connector is disconnected when current is flowing, the excessive voltage may damage the ECM. Always turn OFF the ignition switch before servicing . • The following color codes used are indicated throughout this section .

To service the EPS unit refer to steering shaft service procedu re (page 13-34). • Before disconnecting any connector of the EPS system, always turn the ignition switch OFF and disconnect the negative cable from the battery. • The following color codes are indicated throughout this section. 81: Black Sr: Brown Bu: Blue G: Green Gr: Gray Lb: Light blue Lg: Light green 0: Orange P: Pink Pu: Purple A: Red Y: Yellow V: Violet W: White TOOLS SCS connector 070PZ-ZY30100 Pin probe (Male) 07ZAJ-ROJA 110 25-7 ELECTRIC POWER STEERING (EPS) GENERAL TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION EPS INDICATOR Under normal conditions, the EPS indicator comes on when the ignition switch is turned to ON position, then goes off after the engine is started. This indicates that the LED and its circuit are operating correctly. If there is any trouble in the system after the engine is started, the EPS indicator will stay on. (When OTe 22 (NO WRITING THE TORGUE SENSOR NEUTRAL POSITION) is detected by the control unit the EPS indicator will blink. ) When the EPS indicator light comes on, the control unit memorizes the OTe. The control unit wil ' stop the EPS system after the engine starts again, but it keeps the EPS indicator on. When OTe 23 (TORQUE SENSOR PROBLEM) is stored in the control unit, the EPS indicator will stay on until the OTC is erased. When a problem is detected and the EPS indicator comes on, there are cases when the indicator stays on until the ignition switch is turned OFF, and cases when the indicator goes off automatically when the system returns to normal. DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) The OTCs are memorized in the EEPROM (nonvolatile memory) therefore the memorized OTCs cannot be erased by discon necting the battery. Perform the specified procedures to clear OTCs (page 25-11). SELF DIAGNOSIS (DTC) Self-diagnosis can be classified into three categories: - Initial diagnosis: performed right after the engine starts and until the EPS indicator goes off. Regular diagnosis: performed right after the initial diagnosis until the ignition switch is turned OFF. Revest: The EPS indicator turns on when the OTC is set. The EPS indicator will turn off after the vehicle has recovered from the fail-safe condition, but the OTC will be stored in the EPS ECU. There was a temporary problem, but the system is now fully operational. The EPS ECU performs the following functions when a problem is detected by self-diagnosis: 1. Turns on the EPS indicator. 2. Memorizes the OTC. 3. Stops power assist and manual steering operation begins or reduce the steering assist power. EPS INDICATOR BLINK PATTERN • If the HOS pocket tester is not available, DTC can be read from the EPS ECU memory by the EPS indicator blink pattern. • The number of EPS indicator blinks is the equivalent to the main code of the OTC (the sub code cannot be displayed by the EPS indicator). • When the EPS ECU stores more than one DTC, the EPS indicator will indicate them by blinking in the order from the lower number to highest number. 1 3 sec 13 sec 0.3 sec 0.3 sec 0.5 0.5 so< /:sec! 13sec 0.3 sec [ @OFF ---- ..-_.. _.. _. f1 .L.. . 2 DTC code = 12 Problem code Example: one long blink and two short blinks DTC code = 12 25-8 ..... . .. . . .

L.. .. 26 sec Pattern DTe code", 21 Repeat ed ELECTRIC POWER STEERING (EPS) RESTRICTION ON POWER ASSIST OPERATION Repeated extreme steering force, such as turning the handlebar continuously back-and-forth with the vehicle stopped, causes an increase of power consumption in the EPS mOlor. The increase of electric current causes the motor to heat up. Because this heat adversely affects the system, the control unit monitors th e electric current of the motor. When the control unit detects heat build-up in the motor, it reduces the electric current to the motor gradually to protect the system (motor and EPS EeU), this restricts the power assist operation. The EPS indicator does not come on during this function. When steering torque is not applied to the handlebar, or when the ignition is turned off. and the system cools, the control unit will restore the power assist gradually until it's fully restored. TORQUE SENSOR NEUTRAL POSITION (INITIALIZE THE TORQUE SENSOR) The EPS ECU stores the torque sensor neutral position in the EEPROM. The torque sensor must be initialized whenever the EPS unit, the motor, the EPS ECU , etc is serviced (page 25·'3) . Perform the Torque Sensor Initialization when you service the following contents (page 25- 13).

HOW TO TROUBLESHOOT EPS DTC 1. Question the customer about the conditions when the problem occurred, and try to reproduce the same conditions for troubleshooting. Find out when the EPS indicator came on, such as during EPS control, after EPS control, when the vehicle was at a certain speed, etc. 2. When the EPS indicator does nol come on during the test-drive, but troubleshooting is done based on the DTC, check for loose connectors, poor terminal contact, etc., i n the affected circuit before you start troubleshooting. 3. After troubleshooting, erase the OTC and test-drive the vehicle. Be sure the EPS indicator does not come on. 25-9 ELECTRIC POWER STEERING (EPS) DTCREADOUT NOTE; Perform this procedure using fully charged battery.
