 the transmission is  under that big hole , I believe.. clutch is on other side where  air cooling hoses attach to the outer fan housing ..   maybe a google search for engine schematic  would help 

Alright sounds like a good start.

You need to download a service manual for your model UTV,  since you have access to the internet.  There is a page on this forum where you can get one downloaded and IT IS  FREEEE! , as Joe Natmath says on TV. You may need to use a computer or maybe even a smart cell phone, I used my desktop computer.

Hi, I have a 2021 buck 450 that would pop out of gear when you put it in gear and hit the gas. couldn't get any help from massimo or the place I bought it from. Cant find a service manual for it, pulled off the seat and there two cables going to the trans  from your gear shift left one is for low,   right one is  for high and reverse . I used a 3/4 inch wrench to loosen  and tighten . adjustable wrench to keep the cable from spinning, lengthened the left cable about 1/4" and it stays in low and doesn't pop out or grind anymore, never had any problems with high and reverse. If anyone knows where you can get a service manual it would be great, hope this helps

It has done this since day one that we purchased it from Tractor Supply. I contacted the service man that Tractor Supply recommended and he told us that there wasn't anything he do to help us with. Has anyone had this same problem and can offer suggestion on to correct this issue ? It would be greatly appreciated.

 

I have a 2021 Massimo T-Boss 550. I had the same problems. When I did my first oil change, I replaced the filter and filled with a good quality synthetic oil specifically for wet clutch and put in just a tiny bit extra over the full mark and I noticed a huge improvement. ALSO- VERY IMPORTANT... always let the engine warm up and build up pressure before putting into gear. On cold start up I always start up and soon as I get in the barn, get off, open the barn door and take a little time to hop back on. I find with this machine I have to handle it with kid gloves or I fear it with break apart. Among other many problems, the Trailer Hitch Receiver snapped after a few uses. When I took a good look at it I was disgusted on how thin the metal is holding it in place; any thinner it would be called tin foil.  My buddy is a welder and when he looked at it (to repair it) he couldn't stop laughing. He had to weld an additional  1/4" steel plate underneath to secure it.

Yeah well whatever!  Lots of blanks around here

believe me when I say we are jealous of your  experience with these things.. none of us have such good fortune with them.. And  the fact that they break alot is not the biggest thorn in my side, its the absolute neglect  and dont givashit attitude from the manufacturer and their pathetic sales minions at Tractor Supply and the rest .. They simply refused to honor their own warranty in any way, even on mines first day of use.   but I digress

   I didn't know Tractor Supply had sold them for several years. I bought mine from a dealer in west Florida in 2016 for the very reason of which you speak, Thing is nothing ever broke on my MSU 800 so I never had to see about the warranty covering anything. I had a young guy work for me in my company (nothing to do with ATV's) that worked previously for Tractor Supply. He said they stopped selling them because they couldn't get parts for them. I showed him where I basically could build one ground up with new pets on line.  

   Only things I've needed are brake shoes and wheel bearings after 2-3 yrs. Considering it lived pretty much in the swamp and water I understood why. I've worked the daylights out of the thing.

Hey Joe, don't "digress", I didn't even know we were arguing!!!

As far as gears grinding on that Buck 450, can't sat I'm familiar with that machine or how it shifts, my MSU 800 they caution you not to try shifting from low to high while underway, it's too easy to kiss reverse. if it ever went completely into reverse....by by tranny!!

Yeah I'll definitely have to fnd a good mechanic for sure. Don't know anyone around me that works on them

Did you every find out what happened to this? If not, or if you did let me ask you this, there is a Primary Drive Clutch Assembly in that part, and if it locks up you have to replace it, (cost around $85 to $150) for parts only, That will also include the belt too. But I think what is killing it, is the clutch is locked up and when you put it in gear it's like taking a standard vehicle putting it in 3 gear and dump the clutch while holding the break. Only way I can describe it.  I could be wrong, but I'm sure you wasn't trying to shift while moving. Most anyone who has a Buck knows you put it in gear and go. You don't shift while moving. HOWEVER I know one person who did but I told him not to ever do it again. Hope it helps, and if not please let me know what happened. Thanks.

      2002 ranger 500 4x4 stopped running and wouldn't restart. Service manual wiring diagram helped identify the hub safety switch as the culprit. Using jumper wires to bypass  switch allowed the engine to start and run normally. Inspection of switch showed melted epoxy and a strong smell of burnt electrical. Unable to find replacement part either used or new. Is there a work around other than jumper wiring?

      2021 Hisun Axis 500 UTV (From Lowes)
      Will NOT START
      MY apologies if this is to much info just wanted to give yal the most information possible for help.
      I'm a so called diyer. An Electrician by trade 21yrs. I got my S×S from my last job. The contractor purchased this S×S for this specific job brand new, from Lowes. They used it for hauling materials, tools, & a little bit of anything you can think of on an Industrial type job site. 
      I remember getting on the SxS one time & pushed the gas petal all the way to the floor & SxS had very little power. 
      So anyway ,when the job finished up back mid July this year (7/2024) , I asked the contractor what they was going to do with it. I was told to take it. Otherwise it would go to the contractors yard (storage yard) & most likely rust away. 
      Took it home washed it , it had a heavy coat of dust on it & in it dust was every where. My helper & I had to push it on the trailer to get it home.  After washing it throughly I let it sit & dry out for a good day and half, maybe 2 days. Before trying to start it. NO START. Will turn over & try to start but thats it. 
      So here's what I've purchased & installed. New Air Filter, new spark plug, new air idle control valve (AICV), new throttle position sensor, new throttle body, new oxygen sensor, new digital dash speedometer/fuel gauge/clock. 
      Also drained the old oil & gas & replaced with new oil & 93oct. gas. I should probably mention that I've changed the AICV twice. The 1st time I changed the AICV I was able to get the SxS started & let idle for at least 10-15min. Drove out of the garage, with very little power,  turned it around & barely got it back in the garage.That was the one & only time I've been able to start the SxS. I've also cleaned the Throttle Body and & intake with TB cleaner.  So after that the AICV was  making weird noise so I pulled it out & tried cleaning it, pretty sure I messed it up. So I purchased a Throttle Body that came with new AICV & TPS. Still NO START.  I've checked the fuel pump & the fuel injector.  I took the injector off still hooked up to wiring & turned the key over, the injector sprayed a lot of gas out kinda the size of a volleyball. I've also checked the clearance gap on the intake & exhaust valve. But today 11/2/2024 I'm going recheck spark plug gap & the valve gaps. And alot of other checking. Would the driver side seat belt have anything to do with it not starting?? I know the driver side seat belt has to be in gauged for full throttle "going fast". Thing is the drv. side seat belt will latch but feels like might be messed up inside of it. Tired opening it up but to no avail.  I've never had a S×S or 4wheeler so I was really excited when I got the S×S,not so much anymore.  I work on & fix my own vehicles usually no problems.  But this SxS is kicking my ass.
      So if possible & someone could help me with some ideas or tell me what Im doing wrong or did wrong, I would greatly appreciate it.  Thank you for reading thus far.

      the regen braking on my e1 has stopped working unless (for eg) I am going down a hill in low and it's slowing things down to stick to the 10kph limit. when I drive and take my foot off the accelerator it's not initiating the regen to slow things down and instead just coasts at whatever speed it is at, or speeds up as the regen is not limiting it. the brake lights work, so it's probably not a fault with the sensor on the brake pedal
       
      hoping someone else might be able to provide some suggestions on things to check, as the mob that I bought it off seem to have gone silent on me

      Just wondering if anyone has had problems with bed warping coming from the heat from the muffler.. If I ride more than 5 minutes my bed starts warping from the heat.. Does anyone have any recommendations on what wrap or shield I can get to prevent this before my bed starts cracking or the warping becomes permanent.. I only have about 50hrs on the UTV.. Basspro said they haven’t had this problem from anyone else.. Hard to believe..
