WARNING! Wet brakes may have
reduced stopping ability, which could cause
loss of control.
[EWB02622]
After riding your ATV in water, be sure to drain the
trapped water by removing the check hose at the
bottom of the air filter case. Also, remove the drain
plugs from the storage compartments and the V-
belt case to drain any water that may have accu-
mulated. NOTICE: Undrained water can cause
damage or improper operation.
[ECB00842]
Wash the ATV in fresh water if it has been operat-
ed in salt water or muddy conditions.

 For ATVs equipped with an odometer or an hour meter, follow the km (mi) or hours maintenance inter-
vals. However, keep in mind that if the ATV isn’t used for a long period of time, the month maintenance
intervals should still be followed.

12. Refill with the specified amount of the recom-
mended engine oil, and then insert the dip-
stick completely into the oil filler hole.
TIPBe sure to wipe off spilled oil on any parts after the
engine and exhaust system have cooled down. NOTICEECB00301In order to prevent clutch slippage (since the
engine oil also lubricates the clutch), do not
mix any chemical additives. Do not use oils
with a diesel specification of “CD” or oils of
a higher quality than specified. In addition,
do not use oils labeled “ENERGY CONSERV-
ING II” or higher. 
Make sure that no foreign material enters the
crankcase.
13. Start the engine, and then let it idle for several
minutes while checking it for oil leakage. If oil
is leaking, immediately turn the engine off and
check for the cause.
14. Turn the engine off, wait at least ten minutes, and then check the oil level and correct it if
necessary.
15. Install the access cover by turning it clock- wise.EBU27307Final gear oilThe final gear case must be checked for oil leak-
age before each ride. If any leakage is found, have
a Yamaha dealer check and repair the ATV. In ad-
dition, the final gear oil level must be checked and
the oil changed as follows at the intervals speci-
fied in the periodic maintenance and lubrication
chart.
To check the final gear oil level1. Place the ATV on a level surface.
Recommended oil:
See page 10-1.
Oil quantity: Without oil filter cartridge replacement:2.00 L (2.11 US qt, 1.76 Imp.qt)
With oil filter cartridge replacement: 2.10 L (2.22 US qt, 1.85 Imp.qt)

EBU34230Cleaning the air filter elementThe air filter element should be cleaned at the in-
tervals specified in the periodic maintenance and
lubrication chart. Clean or, if necessary, replace
the air filter element more frequently if you are rid-
ing in unusually wet or dusty areas.TIPThere is a check hose at the bottom of the air filter
case. If dust or water collects in this hose, empty
the hose and clean the air filter element and air fil-
ter case. 1. Place the ATV on a level surface.2. Remove the seat. (See page 4-18.)
3. Remove the air filter case cover by unhooking
the air filter case cover holders.
4. Pull the air filter element out of the air filter case.1. Air filter case check hose

5. Pull off the air filter element lock plate, and
then remove the sponge material from the air
filter element frame. 6. Wash the sponge material gently but thor-
oughly in solvent. WARNING! Always use
parts cleaning solvent to clean the sponge
material. Never use low-flash-point sol-
vents or gasoline to clean the sponge ma-
terial because the engine could catch fire
or explode.
[EWB01942]
7. Squeeze the excess solvent out of the sponge material and let it dry. NOTICE: Do
not twist the sponge material when
squeezing it.

88. Check the sponge material and replace it if
damaged.
9. Apply Yamaha foam air filter oil or other qual- ity foam air filter oil to the sponge material.
TIPThe sponge material should be wet but not drip-
ping. 10. Pull the sponge material over the air filter ele- ment frame, and then install the lock plate.
11. Insert the air filter element into the air filter case, and then install the air filter case cover
by hooking the holders onto the air filter case.
NOTICE: Make sure that the air filter ele-
ment is properly seated in the air filter case. Never operate the engine with the air
filter element removed. Doing so would al-
low unfiltered air to enter the engine, caus-
ing rapid engine wear and possible engine
damage. Additionally, the fuel injection
system would be affected resulting in poor
engine performance and possible over-
heating.
[ECB00763]
12. Install the seat.TIPThe air filter element should be cleaned every 20–
40 hours. It should be cleaned and lubricated
more often if the ATV is operated in extremely
dusty areas. Each time the air filter element main-
tenance is performed, check the air inlet of the air
filter case for obstructions. Check the air filter
case rubber joint to the throttle body and the rub-
ber joint manifold fittings for an air-tight seal.
Tighten all fittings securely to avoid the possibility
of unfiltered air entering the engine. EBU28904Cleaning the spark arresterBe sure the exhaust pipe and muffler are cool be-
fore cleaning the spark arrester.
1. Remove the tailpipe bolts.
