Engine oil and oil filter element
The engine oil level should be checked before

the oil filter element cleaned at the intervals speci-
fied in the periodic maintenance and lubrication
chart.
To check the engine oil level
1. Place the ATV on a level surface.
2. Warm up the engine for several minutes, and
then turn it off.
3. Wait a few minutes until the oil level settles
before checking.

wipe the dipstick off with a clean rag. Insert
the dipstick in the filler hole (without screwing
it in), and then remove it again to check the oil
level.NOTE:_ The oil level should be between the minimum and
maximum level marks. _
