hole, tighten the water pump air bleed bolt to
the specified torque.
16. Remove panel E. (See page 9-10.)
17. Loosen the clamp screw, and then remove the V-belt cooling duct. 18. Loosen the cylinder head air bleed bolt, with-
out removing it, to allow all of the air to es-
cape from the air bleed bolt hole.
19. When coolant begins to flow out of the bolt hole, tighten the cylinder head air bleed bolt
to the specified torque.
20. Start the engine and let it idle for ten minutes.

22. Pour additional coolant into the radiator until
it is full.
23. Stop the engine and allow it to cool. If the coolant level has dropped after the engine
has cooled, add sufficient coolant until it
reaches the top of the radiator, and then in-
stall the radiator cap.
24. Start the engine, and then check for coolant leakage.
TIPIf any leakage is found, have a Yamaha dealer
check the cooling system. 25. Install the V-belt cooling duct, and then tight-en the clamp screw.
26. Install the footboard by installing the bolts and nuts, and then tighten them to the speci-
fied torques.

96. Wash the sponge material gently but thor-
oughly in solvent. WARNING! Always use
parts cleaning solvent. Never use low-
flash-point solvents or gasoline because
the engine could catch fire or explode.
[EWB01943]
7. Squeeze the excess solvent out of the sponge material and let it dry. NOTICE: Do
not twist the sponge material when
squeezing it.
[ECB00442]
8. Check the sponge material and replace it if damaged.
9. Apply Yamaha foam air filter oil or other qual- ity foam air filter oil to the sponge material.TIPThe sponge material should be wet but not drip-
ping. 10. Pull the sponge material over the air filter ele- ment frame, and then install the lock plate.
11. Insert the air filter element into the air filter case, and then install the air filter case cover
by hooking the holders onto the air filter case.
NOTICE: Make sure that the air filter ele-
ment is properly seated in the air filter

case. Never operate the engine with the air
filter element removed. Doing so would al-
low unfiltered air to enter the engine, caus-
ing rapid engine wear and possible engine
damage. Additionally, the fuel injection
system would be affected resulting in poor
engine performance and possible over-
heating.
[ECB00763]
12. Install the seat.TIPEach time the air filter element maintenance is
performed, check the air inlet of the air filter case
for obstructions. Check the air filter case rubber
joint to the throttle body and the rubber joint man-
ifold fittings for an air-tight seal. Tighten all fittings
securely to avoid the possibility of unfiltered air
entering the engine. EBU28905Cleaning the spark arresterBe sure the exhaust pipe and muffler are cool be-
fore cleaning the spark arrester.
WARNING
EWB02342Always let the exhaust system cool prior to
touching exhaust components.
Do not start the engine with the spark arrester
removed. Sparks or exhaust particulate can
cause eye injury, burns, or start a fire. 1. Remove the tailpipe bolts.
2. Remove the tailpipe by pulling it out of the
muffler, and then remove the gasket.1. Gasket

brush to remove any carbon deposits from
the spark arrester portion of the tailpipe and
inside of the tailpipe housing.
4. Check the gasket for damage. Replace if nec- essary.
5. Install the gasket onto the tailpipe, then insert the tailpipe into the muffler and align the bolt
holes.
6. Install the bolts and tighten to the specified torque.
EBU23932V-belt case drain plugAfter riding in water deep enough to allow it to en-
ter the V-belt case, remove the V-belt case drain
plug to drain the water from the case.TIPIf water drains from the V-belt case after removing
the plug, have a Yamaha dealer check the ATV as
the water may affect other engine parts. Tightening torque:Tailpipe bolt:10 N·m (1.0 kgf·m, 7.4 lb·ft)

improper air-fuel mixture and/or engine noise. To
prevent this from occurring, the valve clearance
must be adjusted by a Yamaha dealer at the inter-
vals specified in the periodic maintenance and lu-
brication chart.EBU29602BrakesReplacement of brake components requires pro-
fessional knowledge. Brake service should be
performed by a Yamaha dealer.
