Default how to turn the idle up on a P700

I got a new 05 p700 and the stupid thing idles real low. To start it i have to give it gas. Even when it is at full choke. once it gets started i still have to give it gas or it will die. I rode it around the yard for about 20 minutes the other night and as so as i came to a stop and let off the gas it died. This thing only has a 1 hour on it. Does anybody have any ideas

It should be in your manual. If not then it's down on the right side under the shifter, you will see a ridged round black **** sticking out towards you, that's your idle screw/****.

You will need to give it a squirt of gas to get her going, it's not an EFI, it's just the nature of the beast. It always flashes right up if you do, better than most.

That is one of the few things I dont like about the prairie. Its kind of aggrevating when Im holding something in my hand and have to put it down to start the quad since I have to gas it and hit the starter at the same time. Ride with a p400, grizzly, and a polaris 500 and they all start on the first click with no throttle needed. With that being said, I wouldnt trade my prairie for any other brand out there.
