To properly tighten the oil filter, use the
special tool. Never tighten the oil filter by
hand only.

Front Differential Gear Oil Inspection (LT-A400F,
LT-F400F)
B827H10206009
Inspect front differential gear oil
Every 2 000 km (1 200 miles, 6 months)
Inspect the front differential gear oil level in the following
procedures:
1) Place the vehicle on level ground.
2) Remove the front under cover. Refer to “Exterior

(Page 9D-3)”.
3) Remove the oil filler plug (1) and oil level plug (2). If
the oil level is below the level hole, add new oil
through the filler hole until the oil flows out from the
level hole. Use hypoid gear oil SAE #90, API grade
GL-5.
NOTE
Use hypoid gear oil SAE #80, API grade GL-5,
if the vehicle is ridden where the ambient
temperature is below 0
°
C (32
°
F).
4) Tighten the oil level plug (2) and oil filler plug (1) to
the specified torque.
CAUTION
!
Replace the gasket washers with new ones.
Tightening torque
Front drive (differential) gear oil level plug (a): 8
N·m (0.8 kgf-m, 6.0 lb-ft)
Tightening torque
Front drive (differential) gear oil filler plug (b):
35 N·m (3.5 kgf-m, 25.5 lb-ft)
