PRE-OPERATION CHECKS
EBU19226Inspect your vehicle each time you use it to make sure the vehicle is in safe operating condition. Always
follow the inspection and maintenance procedures and schedules described in the Owner’s Manual.
WARNING
EWB00482Failure to inspect or maintain the vehicle properly increases the possibility of an accident or equip-
ment damage. Do not operate the vehicle if you find any problem. If a problem cannot be corrected
by the procedures provided in this manual, have the vehicle inspected by a Yamaha dealer. Before using this vehicle, check the following points:
ITEMROUTINE PAGE
Fuel • Check fuel level in fuel tank,
and add recommended fuel if neces-
sary.
• Check fuel line for leakage. Correct if necessary. 4-17, 5-3
Engine oil • Check oil level in engine, and add recommended oil to specified
level if necessary.
• Check ATV for oil leakage. Correct if necessary. 5-3, 8-19
Final gear oil • Check ATV for oil leakage. Correct if necessary. 5-3, 8-24
Differential gear oil • Check ATV for oil leakage. Correct if necessary. 5-3, 8-27
Coolant • Check coolant level in reservoir, and add recommended coolant to
specified level if necessary.
• Check cooling system for leakage. Correct if necessary. 5-3, 8-29

8. Check the differential gear case for oil leak-
age. If oil is leaking, check for the cause.
EBU23472CoolantThe coolant level should be checked regularly. In
addition, the coolant must be changed at the in-
tervals specified in the periodic maintenance and
lubrication chart.
TIPIf genuine Yamaha coolant is not available, use an
ethylene glycol antifreeze containing corrosion in-
hibitors for aluminum engines and mix with dis-
tilled water at a 1:1 ratio. NOTICEECB02190Mix antifreeze with distilled water only. Howev-
er, if distilled water is not available, soft water
may be used for refilling. Do not use hard water
or salt water since they are harmful to the en-
gine. EBU2712ATo check the coolant level1. Park the ATV on a level surface.TIPThe coolant level must be checked on a cold en-
gine since the level varies with engine tempera-
ture. 2. Check the coolant level in the coolant reser- voir.
Tightening torque:
Differential gear oil filler bolt:23 N·m (2.3 kgf·m, 17 lb·ft)
Recommended coolant: YAMALUBE coolant
Coolant quantity: Coolant reservoir (up to full level):0.25 L (0.26 US qt, 0.22 Imp.qt)
Radiator (including all routes): 1.32 L (1.40 US qt, 1.16 Imp.qt)

TIPThe coolant should be between the minimum and
maximum level marks. 3. If the coolant is at or below the minimum levelmark, remove panel C to access the coolant
reservoir. (See page 8-10.)
4. Remove the coolant reservoir cap. WARNING! Remove only the coolant res-
ervoir cap. Never attempt to remove the
radiator cap when the engine is hot.
[EWB02672]
5. Add coolant to the maximum level mark, in-stall the reservoir cap, and then install the
panel. NOTICE: If coolant is not available,
use distilled water or soft tap water in-
stead. Do not use hard water or salt water
since they are harmful to the engine. If wa-
ter has been used instead of coolant, re-
place it with coolant as soon as possible,
otherwise the cooling system will not be
protected against frost and corrosion. If
water has been added to the coolant, have
a Yamaha dealer check the antifreeze con-

86. Remove the coolant reservoir cap.
7. Disconnect the coolant reservoir hose on the
coolant reservoir side, and then drain the
coolant from the coolant reservoir. 8. After draining the coolant, thoroughly flush
the cooling system with clean tap water.
9. Install the coolant drain bolt and its new gas- ket, and then tighten the bolt to the specified
torque.
10. Connect the coolant reservoir hose.
11. Pour the recommended coolant into the res- ervoir to the maximum level mark, and then
install the reservoir cap.

Engine overheating
WARNING
EWB02291Wait for the engine and radiator to cool before removing the radiator cap. You could be burned by
hot fluid and steam blown out under pressure. Always put a thick rag over the cap when opening.
Allow any remaining pressure to escape before completely removing the cap. TIP
Tap water can be used in an emergency. Change to the recommended coolant as soon as possible.
The engine will tend to overheat if the radiator is caked with mud, or if the ATV is overloaded. Wait until the
engine has cooled.
Check the coolant level in the
reservoir and radiator.
The coolant level
is OK.The coolant level is low.
Check the cooling system
for leakage.
Have a Yamaha dealer check
and repair the cooling system.Add coolant. (See TIP.)
Start the engine. If the engine overheats again, have a
Yamaha dealer check and repair the cooling system.
