Hi i just bought an lta 50 for my wee girl, it started 1st time when i bought it i seen the guy messing about with a throttle button. so got home and took it out and it took me about 10-15 pulls to start it and in between i was moving the throttle up and down, when it started it was fine and ran great. How should i start the quad and were should the throttle be, i dont have a clue about quads and any help would be much appreciated.

 

Any1 ? i think its called the throttle is on the opposite site to the pull start

 

56 views and not 1 person is able to tell me the way to start a quad really ?

 

Welcome to the forums.
Sir, under the circumstances I recommend you taking it to a local dealership/ atv shop so someone can personally show you what and where the controls are.
While there you can pick up a wee helmet for the wee gal.

 

is this a serious reply ? i know were all the controls are just want to know about were the choke should be when starting the quad, and i dont need a helmet what are you on about ?

 

you messed up cause you might have mad the guy mad that could have really helped you. He knows all about those little quads

 

I think any1 with a quad should know the answer to my question

 

I got a helmet with the quad thats why i said i dont need a helmet, who would let there child go on a quad without a helmet thats just nuts

 

can't believe after reading this thread that not one question was responded to.. take it to a dealer cause he asking how he should choke the machine..

anyhow - starting cold quads personally I choke mine half (mines a little 90cc) cranks cranks cranks verrrroomm.. however this might not be the case for you depending on your adjustments, so playing with a few things heres what I would look at

1) I would start the cold quad starting at half and see where that gets you then full if need be,,
2) once you have it started and running adjust your idle screw - you shouldn't have to touch the throttle while attempting to crank it over

if it's been sitting you may want to get in a good carb cleaning in

I'm by far no pro just learned enough over the last few months after purchasing this little 90cc for the son

hope that gives you something to test out

 

thanks for the reply with the quad i got the choke goes up or down and i dont know if up means its on or off, but i took it out again today the choke was at the up position and it started 1st time and ran all day on the up position.
