2011 YAMAHA YFM700R adding oil

8-13
8Be sure the engine oil is at the correct lev-
el, otherwise engine damage may result.
[ECB00851]
TIPWhen adding oil, be careful not to overfill the en-
gine oil tank; the oil level rises faster starting from
the half-level-portion on the dipstick.6. Insert the dipstick into the engine oil tank filler
hole, and then tighten the engine oil tank filler
cap. NOTICE: Make sure that the engine oil
tank filler cap is securely tightened; other-
wise, oil may seep out when the engine is
running.

To change the engine oil (with or without oil fil-
ter element replacement)
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. Place an oil pan under the engine to collect
the used oil.

and its O-ring, and then remove the crank-
case engine oil drain bolt and its gasket.
