LUBRICANT
The recommended lubricant is Arctic Cat Gear Lube
or an equivalent gear lube which is SAE approved
80W-90 hypoid. This lubricant meets all of the lubrica-
tion requirements of the Arctic Cat ATV front differen-
tials and rear drives.
FILLING GAS TANK
ATV0049B
Since gasoline expands as its temperature rises, the gas
tank must be filled to its rated capacity only. Expan-
sion room must be maintained in the tank particularly
if the tank is filled with cold gasoline and then moved
to a warm area.
Tighten the gas tank cap securely after filling the tank.
Genuine Parts
When replacement of parts is necessary, use only gen-
uine Arctic Cat ATV parts. They are precision-made to
ensure high quality and correct fit. Refer to the appro-
priate Illustrated Parts Manual for the correct part
number, quantity, and description.
Preparation For Storage
Arctic Cat recommends the following procedure to
prepare the ATV for storage.
! CAUTION
Any oil used in place of the recommended oil could
cause serious engine damage. Do not use oils which
contain graphite or molybdenum additives. These
oils can adversely affect clutch operation. Also, not
recommended are racing, vegetable, non-detergent,
and castor-based oils.
! CAUTION
Any lubricant used in place of the recommended
lubricant could cause serious front differential/rear
drive damage.
! WARNING
Always fill the gas tank in a well-ventilated area.
Never add fuel to the ATV gas tank near any open
flames or with the engine running. DO NOT SMOKE
while filling the gas tank.
! WARNING
Do not overflow gasoline when filling the gas tank. A
fire hazard could materialize. Always allow the
engine to cool before filling the gas tank.
! WARNING
Do not over-fill the gas tank.
! CAUTION
Prior to storing the ATV, it must be properly serviced
to prevent rusting and component deterioration.
