TIP●
Air filter This model’s air filter is equipped with a disposable oil-coated paper element, which must not be cleaned with com- pressed air to avoid damaging it.
The air filter element needs to be replaced more frequently when riding in unusually wet or dusty areas.
●
Hydraulic brake and clutch service Regularly check and, if necessary, correct the brake fluid and clutch fluid levels.
Every two years replace the internal components of the brake master cylinders and calipers as well as clutch master and release cylinders, and change the brake and clutch fluids.
Replace the brake and clutch hoses every four years and if cracked or damaged.

NOTICE

●
In order to prevent clutch slip-
page (since the engine oil also
lubricates the clutch), do not
mix any chemical additives. Do
not use oils with a diesel speci-
fication of “CD” or oils of a high-
er quality than specified. In
addition, do not use oils labeled
“ENERGY CONSERVING II” or
higher.
●
Make sure that no foreign mate-
rial enters the oil tank.
15. Install the engine oil filler cap.
16. Start the engine, and then let it idlefor several minutes while checking
it for oil leakage. If oil is leaking, im-
mediately turn the engine off and
check for the cause.
17. Turn the engine off, and then check the oil level and correct it if
necessary.
18. Install the rider seat.
EAU20051
Transfer case oil The transfer case must be checked for
oil leakage before each ride. If any
leakage is found, have a Yamaha deal-
er check and repair the vehicle. In addi-
tion, the transfer case oil level should
be checked and the oil must be
changed by a Yamaha dealer at the in-
tervals specified in the periodic mainte-
nance and lubrication chart.
EAU36764
Air filter element The air filter element must be replaced
at the intervals specified in the periodic
