MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
Oil Check
The 400/500 oil dipstick and fill tube (1) are located on the left side of
the ATV. The 600/700 dipstick/oil fill (2) is located on the engine and
is accessible on the left side of the ATV.
NOTE: A rising oil level between checks in cool weather driving can
indicate contaminants such as gas or moisture collecting in
the crankcase. If the oil level is over the full/safe mark,
change the oil immediately.
1. Position t he ATV on a level surface.
NOTE: Do not start the 600/700 engine
before the oil check.
2. Sportsman 400/500 only: Start the
engine and let it idle for 20-30
seconds. Stop the engine.
3. Remove the dipstick and wipe it dry
with a clean cloth.
NOTE: If the dipstick is equipped with a
lever lock (3), lift the lock to
remove the dipstick.
4. Reinstall the dipstick completely, but do not
lock it (if equipped). The dipstick must be
completely seated to keep the angle
and depth of the stick
consistent.
5. Remove the dipstick
and check the oil level.
Maintain the oil level
in the normal or safe
range (4), depending on
the style of dipstick in
your model. Do not overfill.
NOTE: Due to the dipstick entry
angle into the
crankcase (600/700
models), the oil level will
read higher on the bottom
side of the dipstick. Always
read the level on the upper
surface (5) of the dipstick.
6. After reinstalling the dipstick, be
sure to seat the lever lock (if equipped).
