11. Install the engine oil drain bolt and its new gasket, and then tighten the bolt to the spec-
ified torque. 12. Refill with the specified amount of the recom-
mended engine oil.
TIPBe sure to wipe off spilled oil on any parts after 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.

EBU23439Changing the differential gear oilThe differential gear case must be checked for oil
leakage before each ride. If any leakage is found,
have a Yamaha dealer check and repair the ATV.
In addition, the differential gear oil must be
changed as follows at the intervals specified in the
periodic maintenance and lubrication chart.1. Park the ATV on a level surface.
2. Place an oil pan under the differential gear case to collect the used oil.
3. Remove the differential gear oil filler bolt, the differential gear oil drain bolt and their gasket
to drain the oil from the differential gear case. 4. Install the drain bolt and its new gasket, and
then tighten the bolt to the specified torque.
5. Refill with the specified amount of the recom- mended differential gear oil. NOTICE: Be

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. 12. Pour the recommended coolant into the radi-
ator until it is full, and then install the radiator
cap.
13. Start the engine, let it idle for several minutes, and then turn it off.
TIPWhile the engine is idling, check the cooling sys-
tem for leaks. 14. When the engine is cool, remove the radiatorcap to check the coolant level in the radiator.
If it is low, add sufficient coolant until it reach-
es the top of the radiator, and then install the
radiator cap.
15. Install the panels and the front carrier.EBU37113Cleaning the air filterThe main air filter element and sub air filter ele-
ment should be cleaned every 20–40 hours of en-
gine operation. When servicing the air filter
elements, check the air filter case inlet for obstruc-
tions. Check the air filter case rubber joint to the
throttle body and the rubber joint manifold fittings
for an air-tight seal. Tighten all fittings securely to
avoid the possibility of unfiltered air entering the
engine.
