Starting a warm engine
To start a warm engine, refer to the “Starting a cold
engine” section. The starter (choke) should not be
used. The throttle should be opened slightly.
EBU00182
Warming up
To get maximum engine life, always warm up the
engine before starting off. Never accelerate hard
with a cold engine! To see whether or not the en-
gine is warm, check if it responds to the throttle
normally with the starter (choke) turned off.

Oil level inspection
1. Remove panel F. (See page 8-31 for panel
removal and installation procedures.)
2. Place the ATV on a level place and warm up
the engine for several minutes.
3. Stop the engine.
4. Remove the dipstick and wipe it off with a
clean rag. Insert the dipstick in the filler hole
without screwing it in.NOTE:_ Wait a few minutes until the oil level settles before
checking. _5. The oil level should be between the maxi-
mum and minimum marks. If the level is low,
fill the engine with sufficient oil to reach the
specified level.

The final gear case must be checked for oil leak-
age before each ride. If any leakage is found, have
a Yamaha dealer check and repair the ATV.
Final gear oil replacement
1. Place the machine on a level place.
2. Place a container under the final gear case to
collect the used oil.
3. Remove the oil filler bolt and the drain bolt to
drain the oil.

Cooling system
1. Check the coolant level in the coolant reser-
voir when the engine is cold as the coolant
level will vary with engine temperature. The
coolant level should be between the maxi-
mum and minimum marks.
2. If the level is low, remove panel D. (See pag-
es 8-17 ~ 8-19 for panel removal and installa-
tion procedures.)

12. Install the radiator cap.
13. Start the engine and let it idle for several min-
utes. Stop the engine, and then check the
coolant level in the radiator. If it is low, add
more coolant until it reaches the top of the ra-
diator.
14. Fill the coolant reservoir with coolant up to
the maximum level.
15. Install the coolant reservoir cap and check for
coolant leakage.NOTE:_ If any leakage is found, ask a Yamaha dealer to in-

8. Pull the element over its frame.
9. Install the element assembly.
10. Install the air filter case cover and be sure to
connect the hose.NOTE:_ The air filter element should be cleaned every 20 ~
40 hours. It should be cleaned and lubricated more
often if the machine is operated in extremely dusty
areas. Each time the filter element maintenance is
performed, check the air inlet to the filter case for
obstructions. Check the air cleaner rubber joint to
the carburetor and manifold fittings for an airtight
seal. Tighten all fittings securely to avoid the pos-
sibility of unfiltered air entering the engine. _CAUTION:_ Never operate the engine with the air filter ele-
ment removed. This will allow unfiltered air to
enter, causing rapid engine wear and possible
engine damage. Additionally, operation with-
out the filter element will affect carburetor jet-
ting with subsequent poor performance and
possible engine overheating. _
