AIR CLEANER SERVICE
1. The air cleaner is located just above the rear wheel in the
left of vehicle.
NOTE: It is recommended that the air filter be
inspected as part of pre-ride inspection. When riding
in extremely dusty conditions, air filter replacement
will be required more often.
2. Remove all screw and remove the air box cover. Inspect the
seal. It should adhere tightly to the cover and seal all the way
around.
3. Remove air filter assembly. Blow by compressed air to filter
outer surface.
4. Inspect the air filter element and replace if necessary.
ENGINE OIL LEVEL
The horizontal cylinder engine is a wet-sump engine, meaning
the oil is contained in the bottom of the crankcase. To check
the oil level follows the procedure listed below.
1. Position vehicle on a level surface.
2. Be sure the machine has sat for a while before removing the
dipstick.
IMPORTANT: Do not run the machine and then check
the dipstick.
3. Remove dipstick and wipe dry with a clean cloth.
4. Reinstall the dipstick completely and screw it to the end.
NOTE: Make certain the dipstick is inserted all the
way into the filler tube to keep the angle and depth of
dipstick consistent.
7. Remove the dipstick and check the oil level. Maintain the oil
level between the” Upper and Lower” range. Add oil as
indicated by the level on the dipstick. Do not overfill (see
NOTE below).
