ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
To prolong vehicle life, some maintenance items must be serviced more frequently on vehicles used under severe
driving conditions such as extreme temperatures, extreme dust/debris conditions, or frequent use with maximum
load.
To access the powertrain for routine maintenance, lift or remove the seat and remove the rear access panel. For
major repair, refer to the appropriate Technician’s Repair and Service Manual.
Some service procedures may require the vehicle to be lifted. Refer to LIFTING THE VEHICLE for proper lifting pro-
cedure and safety information.
Tire Inspection
Tire condition should be inspected per the Periodic Service Schedule. Inflation pressures should be checked when
the tires are cool. Be sure to install the valve dust cap after checking or inflating.
Rear Axle
The only maintenance required for the first five years is the periodic inspection of the rear axle for lubricant leakage.
Unless leakage is evident, the lubricant need only be replaced after five years. Refer to the Service and Repair Man-
ual for the fluid replacement procedure.
