MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
Recoil Housing
To prevent possible engine damage,
always drain the recoil housing (1) after
operating the ATV in very wet conditions.
This should also be done before storing
the ATV.
NOTE:
Water will enter the recoil
housing if the starter handle is
disengaged from the rope guide
when under water.
The drain screw is located at the bottom of the recoil housing. Use a
wrench to remove the screw. Be sure to reinstall the screw after
draining the housing.
NOTE:
Do not open the
crankcase
drain unless the engine has
ingested water. Some engine oil will be lost if the crankcase
drain is opened.
