Cannondale drown out!

[JeffQuadShop]

Ok, thanks to Marty (our guinepig) we now have a drill for you in case you decide to take your Dale swimming! DO NOT TRY TO START IT!!!

1. Unplug fuel injectors.

2. Lock the parking brake and stand the quad on its nose. (see pic)

3. Put the quad in 5th gear.

4. You and a friend each grab ahold of a rear tire and spin the motor over backwards. (its hard, but 2 people can do it!)

5. You will see the water being pumped out from the airbox.

6. Do this untill no more water comes out.

7. Sit the quad back on its wheels and turn the motor over with the injectors unpluged. (this keeps the motor from flooding)

8. Crank the motor for 3 seconds then let off then retry. Continue this untill the motors runs for a few seconds then dies.

9. Plug in the injectors and start. Ride back to the truck or house and dry out the air filter and change the oil.

The quad ran great the rest of the day!

Hope this helps. Thanks Marty for going swimming in the 30 degree weather.
