a spark plug, a good estimate of the correct torque
is 1/4–1/2 turn past finger tight. However, the spark
plug should be tightened to the specified torque as
soon as possible.
4. Install the spark plug cap.

Transmission oil
The transmission oil level should be checked be-
fore each ride. In addition, the transmission oil
must be changed at the intervals specified in the
periodic maintenance and lubrication chart.
To check the transmission oil level
1. Place the ATV on a level surface.
2. Start the engine, warm it up for several min-
utes, and then turn it off.
3. Wait a few minutes until the oil settles, remove
the oil filler cap, wipe the dipstick off with a
clean rag, insert it back into the oil filler hole
(without screwing it in), and then remove it
again to check the oil level.NOTE:

The transmission oil should be between the mini-
mum and maximum level marks.
4. If the oil is at or below the minimum level mark,
add sufficient oil of the recommended type to
raise it to the correct level.
5. Insert the dipstick into the oil filler hole, and
then tighten the oil filler cap.

2. Start the engine, warm it up for several min-
utes, and then turn it off.
3. Place an oil pan under the transmission to col-
lect the used oil.
4. Remove the oil filler cap and the drain bolt to
drain the oil from the transmission.
5. Install the drain bolt, and then tighten it to the
specified torque.6. Add the specified amount of the recommend-
ed transmission oil, and then install and tight-
en the oil filler cap.
CAUTION:
ECB00430

In order to prevent clutch slippage (since the
transmission 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 ad-
dition, do not use oils labeled “ENERGY
CONSERVING II” or higher.

Make sure that no foreign material enters the
crankcase.
7. Start the engine, and then let it idle for several
minutes while checking the transmission for
oil leakage. If oil is leaking, immediately turn
the engine off and check for the cause.
8. Turn the engine off, and then check the oil lev-
el and correct it if necessary.

Cleaning
Frequent, thorough cleaning of your ATV will not
only enhance its appearance but will improve its
general performance and extend the useful life of
many components.
1. Before cleaning the ATV:
a. Block off the end of the exhaust pipe to
prevent water entry. A plastic bag and
strong rubber band may be used.
b. Make sure the spark plugs and all filler
caps are properly installed.
2. If the engine case is excessively greasy, apply
degreaser with a paint brush. Do not apply de-
greaser to the chain, sprockets or wheel ax-
les.
3. Rinse the dirt and degreaser off with a garden
hose. Use only enough pressure to do the job.
CAUTION:

ECB00710
Excessive water pressure may cause water
seepage and deterioration of wheel bearings,
brakes, transmission seals and electrical de-
vices. Many expensive repair bills have result-ed from improper high-pressure detergent
applications such as those available in coin-
operated car washers.
4. Once most of the dirt has been hosed off,
wash all surfaces with warm water and mild,
detergent-type soap. An old toothbrush or bot-
tle brush is handy for hard-to-reach places.
5. Rinse the ATV off immediately with clean wa-
ter and dry all surfaces with a chamois, clean
towel or soft absorbing cloth.
6. Dry the chain and lubricate it to prevent it from
rusting.
7. Clean the seat with a vinyl upholstery cleaner
to keep the cover pliable and glossy.
8. Automotive type wax may be applied to all
painted and chrome plated surfaces. Avoid
combination cleaner-waxes. Many contain
abrasives which may mar the paint or protec-
tive finish. When finished cleaning, start the
engine and let it idle for several minutes.WARNING
