TIPThe engine oil should be between the tip of the
dipstick and the maximum level mark. 5. If the engine oil is not between the tip of thedipstick and the maximum level mark, add
sufficient oil of the recommended type to
raise it to the correct level. NOTICE: Be sure
the engine oil is at the correct level, other-
wise engine damage may result.
[ECB00852]
6. Insert the dipstick into the oil filler hole, and then tighten the engine oil filler cap. To change the engine oil (with or without oil fil-
ter cartridge replacement)
1. Place the ATV on a level surface.
2. Start the engine, warm it up for several minu- tes, and then turn it off.
3. Place an oil pan under the engine to collect the used oil.
4. Remove the engine oil filler cap, and then re- move the engine oil drain bolt and its gasket
to drain the oil from the crankcase.1. Engine oil dipstick

3. If the oil is below the brim of the filler hole, add
sufficient oil of the recommended type to
raise it to the correct level.
4. Check the gasket for damage, and replace it if necessary.
5. Install the oil filler bolt and its gasket, and then tighten the bolt to the specified torque. To change the final gear oil
1. Place the ATV on a level surface.
2. Remove the final gear case guard by remov- ing the bolts.
3. Place an oil pan under the final gear case to collect the used oil.
4. Remove the final gear oil filler bolt, the final gear oil drain bolt, and their gasket to drain
the oil from the final gear case.

Use only the specified brake fluid; otherwise,
the rubber seals may deteriorate, causing
leakage.
Refill with the same type of brake fluid. Add-
ing a brake fluid other than DOT 4 may result
in a harmful chemical reaction.
Be careful that water does not enter the
brake fluid reservoir when refilling. Water will
significantly lower the boiling point of the flu-
id and may result in vapor lock.
NOTICEECB01161Brake fluid may damage painted surfaces or
plastic parts. Always clean up spilled fluid im-
mediately. As the brake pads wear, it is normal for the brake
fluid level to gradually go down. A low brake fluid
level may indicate worn brake pads and/or brake
system leakage; therefore, be sure to check the
brake pads for wear and the brake system for
leakage. If the brake fluid level goes down sud-
denly, have a Yamaha dealer check the cause be-
fore further riding.
EBU24283Changing the brake fluidHave a Yamaha dealer change the brake fluid at
the intervals specified in the periodic maintenance
and lubrication chart. In addition, have the oil seals
of the brake master cylinder and calipers as well
as the brake hoses replaced at the intervals listed
below or whenever they are damaged or leaking.
Oil seals: Replace every two years.
Brake hoses: Replace every four years.EBU24395Checking the front brake lever free
playThe brake lever free play must be checked at the
intervals specified in the periodic maintenance
and lubrication chart. The brake lever should have
no free play as shown. If there is free play, have a
Yamaha dealer check the brake system.
