Portable fuel containers
If you carry a portable fuel container in the
bed of your Yamaha Wolverine, be sure to se-
cure it with the cap tightened before driving
the vehicle.
Always place a portable fuel container on the
ground before filling it. Before removing the
container cap, touch the container with the
fuel dispenser nozzle. Keep fuel dispenser
nozzle in contact with container inlet when fill-
ing. WARNING! Never refill a fuel container
in the bed of any vehicle. Fire may result
from a build-up of static electricity. The discharge of this build-up while refueling
can cause a spark and ignite the gasoline.

Checking 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. 3. If the oil is below the brim of the filler hole,
add sufficient oil of the recommended
type to raise it to the correct level.
NOTICE: Be sure no foreign material
enters the final gear case.

el. It should be up to the brim of the filler
hole.
3. If the level is low, add sufficient oil of the recommended type to raise it to the
specified level. NOTICE: Be sure no for-
eign material enters the differential
gear case.
