Check Fluid Levels
Inspect the following fluid levels and change if necessary:
•
Front gear case
•
Rear gear case
• Brake fluid (change every two years or as required if fluid looks dark or contaminated)
•
Coolant (change every two years or as required if coolant looks contaminated)
• Fuel Level (add fuel stabilizer according to the product label directions)
Stabilize the Fuel
Fill the fuel tank with fresh fuel that has been treated with fuel stabilizer according to the product label
directions. Do not allow untreated fuel to remain in the tank longer than 30 days, as the fuel begins to
degrade and can cause damage to the fuel system components.
Battery Storage
• Remove the battery from the vehicle and ensure that it is fully charged before placing it in storage.
Protect the battery from freezing temperatures, which can damage the battery.
Lubricate
Inspect all cables and lubricate with cable lubricant according to the product label directions. Grease the
vehicle lubricating points with all season grease.
