Information on 2024 Hison 550x Stryker with a No start Issue
Alien10 replied to KWinTX's topic in UTV General Discussion
You also might consider talking to the selling dealer to push for a full replacement of your unit with a new one since it is an on going issue from new and the first dealer attempt to fix didn't fix it. If they resist, ask for the owner of the dealership and ask him/her how they are going to make you a happy customer. That might make your next dealer visit the last one for a while. Good luck on it. -

Since my UTV is a slow moving property maintenance work horse and I'm constantly in and out of it, I just buckle the belt up behind me & tuck it in behind seat bottom. I wouldn't travel quickly or on any roads or on any "tippy" places without the belt on though, too much risk of getting tossed out and maybe crushed that way.

Information on 2024 Hison 550x Stryker with a No start Issue
Alien10 replied to KWinTX's topic in UTV General Discussion
The whirring noise is the fuel pump building up pressure. It should stop about 3 to 5 seconds after turning the key to "on" position, (but not to start). With all other electricals all functioning, it doesn't sound like a battery issue. No clicking, no reaction to "start" sounds like there is not 12v coming off the key switch to the starter solenoid. From what you described, I'd be betting that the transmission neutral safety switch being defective or out of adjustment. Thus not allowing 12v through the key switch to the starter solenoid. With it in neutral (so you can roll it forward and backward and everyone out of the way) jump 12v to the starter solenoid, it should kick the starter over. Don't let it start the engine, pull a plug wire for safety. IF that works OK, then suspect the neutral or other safety switch. If you connect a test light to the starter solenoid's 12v tab that comes from the key switch, you can start wiggling and pulling things on the shifter mechanism to see if you get a quick flash of the test lamp. Otherwise, get in there with a voltage/continuity tester to see where your 12v is failing to reach the starter solenoid. My 2021 Hisun (Coleman branded) 550 has no brake safety but yours might, its a later model . I do know that if the shifter is even slightly out of the "N" position or if the "N" light on the dash isn't on, you will get nothing when turning the key to start, but everything else electrical will work. Sounding familiar? Good luck, let us know how you are coming along. -
Harvey, Just curious, you mentioned the clutch parts separated. No way to rebuild it better?

Hey UTV Board stie Admins: The board needs to award Ben1098 the UTV Board "Medal of Honor". !! 👍👍👍

Just a thought here...how is compression? Too tight exhaust can burn a seat and leave you with poor compression.

Update: Got the KFI blade, push tube and the Hisun 550 mounting bracket all mounted up. One thing I'm struggling with is the fairly low frame bracket position on the Hisun prevents the blade's front edge wear plate from reaching the driveway surface with the skid shoes properly mounted per the instructions and diagrams. The rubber cushions they show as being first on the skid shoe's post keep the blade edge a 1/2" off the surface. I like to have it just "kiss" the surface as I use it on a long, paved circular driveway. For out on the dirt road, I can lift it an inch or two off the surface to avoid plowing up gravel. I may make my own thinner rubber cushions for the skid plates to let the plow down that half inch to meet the surface. I've set the attack angle forward to help raise the skid plate relationship to the front blade edge but it looks like I'll have to go to the farthest available forward tilt to even out the skid plate to front edge relationship. Lastly, with a forward tilt on the blade, the trip spring eye bolts are 2 to 3 inches too short to engage the mounting holes in the top of the blade. I had to buy 5/16" x 6" eye bolts to replace the 3-1/5" eye bolts in the KFI kit. Next project for over the summer might be a 12 volt linear actuator for angling the blade from inside the cab. Doesn't look like a DIY manual angler is possible. Overall, the KFI kit seems like a sturdy, basically serviceable unit. Of course spring is springing here and not much snow on the prediction horizon now. Will be ready for November/December when they come.

KFI blade purchase: Bought the KFI 60" blade, push tube, and the Hisun/Coleman Outfitter mounting brackets from Lion Parts Power Sports in Champaign NY. They did a good job on the sale and shipment. Very helpful via email and chat, and all went as expected. Delivery was by Fed-X, on time, and in good shape. Came from Sparks Nevada to Michigan. In case anyone is considering a KFI blade for their Coleman Outfitter 550, here are the Hisun Coleman Outfitter 550 KFI 60" snow plow part numbers as provided by the seller, Lion Parts Power Sports.

The KFI 60" blade, push tube and mounting brackets arrive in good shape last night. They were the correct parts for the Hisun (Coleman Outfitter) 550 I have. Installed the mounting bracket to the frame this morning and thought I's share the experience. All parts were really heavy duty and powder coated. Instructions were fairly clear and the photos and drawings were decent, although it wouldn't be difficult to figure the assembly out without the drawings & pics. First, my front bumper is the type that mounts to the front of the frame cross member and bolts to the front and up through the bottom into threaded holes in the frame. My KFI/Hisun bumper model, mounting bracket is supposed to fit over the top of that Hisun bumper mount bracket and use the same threaded frame holes. (other Hisuns may use through frame bolts and nuts). The biggest issue is that the front bumper is also the winch mount and so is quite heavy once unbolted. It wants to fall down and hang by the upper bumper support brackets. OK, so a floor jack used with a light touch came in handy to raise it back into position. However, Hisun's bumper mounting bracket holes are just barely large enough to let the bolts start in the threaded holes, if it is perfectly positioned! Now add to that another 3/8" thick KFI bracket and lining up all the holes to start fine threaded bolt is a exercise in frustration!! Now add to that, the fact that the KFI bracket's square hole is just off about 1/16th of an inch meaning that even in the best position, it wasn't going to allow the bolts to start in their holes. Down comes the entire project. My solution was to use a rat tailed file to enlarge the KFI bracket's square hole by 1/16th" where it needed the extra clearance. I also had to enlarge the Hisun's bumper bracket holes about the same amount using a drill and dressing it with a file. (Careful, the bit will grab and try to twist your wrist off of your arm). Note 1: Before refitting the brackets, remove the plastic skid plate/mud deflector right behind the frame's front cross member. AND replace it before mounting KFI bracket using only the two rear bolts. The front is captured underneath the KFI bracket and can't go anywhere. Note2: The washers for the 4 mounting bolts need to be the big ones in the hardware pack to accommodate the square holes used in this mounting situation. There are 3 possible mounts in the Hisun 550 models, so study the instructions carefully and your Hisun's bumper mounting set up to select the right one. KFI supplies all the parts needed for any of the 3 styles of bumper mounts. Note3: Trying to line up and start the bolts in the bottom holes first was a mistake! Using the floor jack under the winch fairlead, and with a very light touch, and some muscling of the bumper assembly right to left, brought the bumper back up to roughly the correct position. So that the front bolt holes and the bumper mount's holes lined up. Test this alignment with one of the bolts to be sure you can start it in its threads before proceeding. Then by hand, raised the KFI plate up so it too was aligned with at least one of the front bolt holes. Carefully wiggling the parts so as not to lose their orientation, to get one of the front bolts started and screw it in but leave plenty of wiggle room. Do the same for the other front bolt leaving both loose but well started in their threads so there is plenty of wiggle to get the bottom two bolts started. I found once the front two bolts were started, the jack could be removed to allow for better access and position to wiggle the bumper assembly to get the bottom bolts aligned and started. Once all 4 are threaded in, tighten up everything very securely. Don't forget the washers and lock washers, all supplied in the kit. Next up, is brought the machine from the barn to the house garage where the push tube and blade are awaiting assembly and installation. Will update when done, meantime a warm up break and some lunch. Hope this is helpful to someone down the road.

Coleman (or Hisun) Parts and Service experiences.
Alien10 replied to Alien10's topic in Coleman UTV SxS Forum
Joe, I'm in Michigan and using their "find a dealer" the only facilities I could find are either in Canada or in Ohio. Made me curious on whether anyone has found any near their locations. Have a good week. -
Maybe members can post where they have obtained parts and service for their Hisun produced UTVs and ATVs, including the Coleman lines. Maybe post the model you have, what you bought, and how the products were quality wise. Also if you had any shop service done, where (city & state) and how it worked out for you.

My Hisun 550 (Coleman Outfitter stickers) does much better running in low gear. I can get up to about 30mph without going deaf from engine noise and even that is 10mph more than I'd use around my property. Like Randy said, and I agree, you'll have better full engagement in low and likely less wear as well. I seldom use High anymore.

Welcome to the site!! And a huge thank you for your service!! That is a beautiful machine! From the pics it hardly looks used! Congrats and enjoy it!!

Well yesterday I went and ordered a KFI 60" blade and mount for my Hisun 550 with the Coleman Outfitter stickers. Now that winter is just winding down, maybe I can get one more push out of it if it arrives in the next week. Thought I'd try to save my JD Garden Tractor for fall leaf clean ups which it is great at.
