TIPBe sure to wipe off spilled oil on any parts af-
ter 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 la-
beled “ENERGY CONSERVING II” or
higher. 
Make sure that no foreign material en-
ters the crankcase.
12. 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.
13. Turn the engine off, wait at least 10 minu-
tes, and then check the oil level and cor-
rect it if necessary.
14. Install the panel.
15. Lower the cargo bed.EBU32370Final gear oilChecking the final gear oil level 1. Park the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Remove the final gear oil filler bolt and its
gasket, and then check the oil level in the
final gear case. The oil level should be at
the brim of the filler hole.
Recommended engine oil:See page 10-1.
Oil quantity: Without oil filter cartridge replacement:2.20 L (2.33 US qt, 1.94 Imp.qt)
With oil filter cartridge replacement: 2.30 L (2.43 US qt, 2.02 Imp.qt)

4. Install the differential gear oil drain boltand its new gasket, and then tighten the
bolt to the specified torque.
5. Refill the differential gear case with the recommended oil. NOTICE: Be sure no
foreign material enters the differential
gear case.
[ECB00412]
6. Check the oil filler bolt gasket for dam- age, and replace it if necessary.
7. Install the differential gear oil filler bolt and its gasket, and then tighten the bolt
to the specified torque. 8. Check for oil leakage. If oil leakage is
found, check for the cause.
EBU32391CoolantThe coolant level should be checked before
each ride. In addition, the coolant must be
changed at the intervals specified in the peri-
odic maintenance and lubrication chart.
Checking the coolant level1. Park the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Check the coolant level in the coolant reservoir when the engine is cold as the
coolant level varies with engine tempera-
ture.TIPThe coolant should be between the minimum
and maximum level marks.
Tightening torque:Differential gear oil drain bolt:9.8 Nm (0.98 m·kgf, 7.1 ft·lbf)
Recommended oil: SAE 80 API GL-4 Hypoid gear oil
Oil quantity: 0.18 L (0.19 US qt, 0.16 Imp.qt)
Tightening torque: Differential gear oil filler bolt:23 Nm (2.3 m·kgf, 17 ft·lbf)

5. Rinse the vehicle off immediately withclean water and dry all surfaces with a
clean chamois towel or soft, absorbent
cloth.
6. Clean the seats with a vinyl upholstery
cleaner to keep the covers pliable and
glossy.
7. Automotive-type wax may be applied to
all painted and chrome-plated surfaces.
Avoid combination cleaner-waxes. Many
contain abrasives which may scratch the
paint or protective finish. When finished,
start the engine and let it idle for several
minutes.EBU32740StorageLong term storage (60 days or more) of your
vehicle will require some preventive proce-
dures to guard against deterioration. Make
any necessary repairs before storing the vehi-
cle. After thoroughly cleaning the vehicle, prepare
for storage as follows:
1. Fill the fuel tank with fresh fuel and add the specified amount of Yamaha Fuel
Stabilizer and Conditioner or equivalent
product. Operate the vehicle for at least 5
minutes to distribute treated fuel through
the fuel system.
2. Remove the spark plug, pour about one tablespoon of SAE 10W-40 or 20W-50
motor oil in the spark plug hole and install
the spark plug. Ground the spark plug
wire and turn the engine over several
times to coat the cylinder wall with oil.
3. Lubricate all control cables.
4. Block up the frame to raise all wheels off the ground.
Specified amount:1 oz of stabilizer to each gallon of fuel (or
7.5 ml of stabilizer to each liter of fuel)
