EBU35322TransmissionMake sure there is no oil leaking from the
transmission case.EBU31760CoolantCheck the coolant level in the coolant reser-
voir when the engine is cold (the coolant level
will vary with engine temperature).
The coolant level is satisfactory if it is be-
tween the minimum and maximum level
marks on the coolant reservoir. If the coolant
level is at or below the minimum level mark,
add additional coolant to bring the level up to
maximum level mark. If coolant is not avail-
able, add distilled water. Change the coolant
every two years. (See page 8-33.)NOTICEECB02120Hard water or salt water is harmful to the
engine. You may use soft water if you can-
not get distilled water.
EBU36020Final gearMake sure there is no oil leaking from the final
gear case.EBU36030Differential gearMake sure there is no oil leaking from the dif-
ferential gear case.EBU31790Accelerator pedalCheck to see that the accelerator pedal oper-
ates correctly. It must operate smoothly and
spring back to the idle position fully when re-
leased. Have a Yamaha dealer repair as nec-
essary for proper operation.Coolant reservoir capacity (up to the maxi-
mum level mark): 0.31 L (0.33 US qt, 0.28 Imp.qt)

10–20 hours:
Avoid prolonged operation above 6300 r/min.
After break-in:
The vehicle may now be operated normally.EBU36560Starting the engine1. Turn the key to “ ” (on).NOTICEECB03340The coolant temperature warning light,
YCC-S system warning light, and engine
trouble warning light should come on, then
go off.
The EPS warning light should come on,
then go off when the engine is started.
To avoid possible damage, do not operate
the vehicle if a warning light does not work
as described above. 2. Press the brake pedal.
3. Shift the transmission into neutral.
When the transmission is in the neutral
position, the transmission gear display
shows “N” and the neutral indicator
light should come on.
 The engine can be started in any gear if
the brake pedal is applied. However, it
is recommended to shift into neutral
before starting the engine.
4. With your foot off the accelerator pedal, start the engine by turning the key to “ ”
(start).
If the engine fails to start, release the key, and
then try starting it again. Wait a few seconds
before the next attempt. Each attempt should
be as short as possible, to preserve battery
energy. NOTICE: Do not crank the engine
more than 5 seconds on each attempt, or
starter damage could occur. Wait at least
5 seconds between each operation of the
electric starter to let it cool.
[ECB02140]
Do not turn the key to the “ ” (start) position
with the engine running; otherwise, damage
to the electric starter may result.

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]
TIP GL-4 is a quality and additive rating; GL-5
rated hypoid gear oils may also be used.
 If desired, an SAE 80W-90 hypoid gear oil
may be used instead.
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.EBU35110CoolantCheck the coolant level prior to each time you
operate the vehicle, and have a Yamaha deal-
er change the coolant every two years.
Checking the coolant level
1. Park the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Remove the hood. (See page 8-10.)
Tightening torque: Differential gear oil drain bolt:9.8 N·m (0.98 kgf·m, 7.1 lb·ft)
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 N·m (2.3 kgf·m, 17 lb·ft)

3. Check the coolant level when the engineis cold (the coolant level will vary with en-
gine temperature).TIPThe coolant level in the coolant reservoir
should be between the minimum and maxi-
mum level marks. 4. If the coolant level is at or below the mini-
mum level mark, remove the coolant res-
ervoir cap and add coolant to the maximum level mark.
NOTICE: If cool-
ant is not available, use distilled water
or soft tap water instead. Do not use
hard water or salt water since they are
harmful to the engine. If water has
been used instead of coolant, replace
it with coolant as soon as possible,
otherwise the cooling system will not
be protected against frost and corro-
sion. If water has been added to the
coolant, have a Yamaha dealer check
the antifreeze content of the coolant
as soon as possible, otherwise the ef-
fectiveness of the coolant will be re-
duced.

TIPThe radiator fan automatically switches on
or off according to the temperature of the
coolant in the radiator.
 If the engine overheats, see page 8-67 for
instructions. EBU32400Axle bootsCheck the axle boots for holes or tears.
If any damage is found, have them replaced
by a Yamaha dealer.
EBU35121Checking the spark plugsThe spark plug is an important engine com-
ponent which should be periodically
checked, preferably by a Yamaha dealer.
Since heat and deposits will cause any spark
plug to slowly erode, the spark plugs should
be removed and checked in accordance with
the periodic maintenance chart for the emis-
sion control system. In addition, the condition
of the spark plugs can reveal the condition of
the engine.

Engine overheating
Wait for the engine to cool before removing the radiator cap. WARNING! If the engine is not
cool when removing the radiator cap, hot fluid and steam could blow out under pressure
and burn you.
[EWB03460]
Place a thick rag over the cap and remove the cap slowly to allow any re-
maining pressure to escape.
TIPIf it is difficult to get the recommended coolant, tap water can be used temporarily, provided that
it is changed to the recommended coolant as soon as possible. Wait until the
engine has cooled.
Check the coolant level in the
coolant reservoir and/or radiator.
Level is OK.Level is low, check the
cooling system for leakage.
No
leakage.Leakage.
Ask a Yamaha dealer to inspect
and repair the cooling system.Add coolant. (See TIP.)
Restart the engine. If the engine overheats again, ask a
Yamaha dealer to inspect and/or repair the cooling system.
