MAINTENANCE

Oil Level

The oil dipstick and fill tube (1) are located on the left side of the ATV.

NOTE: A rising oil level between checks in cool weather driving can

indicate contaminants such as gas or moisture collecting in

the crankcase. If the oil level is over the full/safe mark,

change the oil immediately.

1. Position the vehicle on a level

surface.

2. Start the engine and let it

idle for 20-30 seconds. Stop

the engine.

3. Remove the dipstick and

wipe it dry with a clean cloth.

4. Reinstall the dipstick

completely.

5. Remove the dipstick and

check the oil level.

Maintain the oil level

in the normal or safe

range (2). Do not

overfill.

6. Reinstall the dipstick

securely.
