Once you have reached

hours in the Intimidator

FFJDV

you will need to go in for your first service.

The first service is essential for double checking anything

that could be a potential problem in the future. You own an

off-road vehicle, the UTV vibrates while riding and can

cause bolts to come loose, issues to come up, etc. We

suggest your dealer perform the service work
