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.

positive displacement oil pump with a cartridge type full flow oil filter and a counter rotating balance shaft.

CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL

Do not overfill engine. Too much oil may cause engine to smoke or cause spark plug fouling.
Do not overfill engine. Too much oil may cause smoking or allow oil to enter the air filter enclosure.

The oil should be checked with the engine warm. The vehicle should be on a level surface with the parking (PARK) 
brake engaged. Allow adequate time for oil to drain into the crankcase before checking.
