adjustment sleeve with five adjustment
positions to allow the spring to be
adjusted for different riding and loading
conditions. If the spring action is too soft
or too stiff, adjust it according to the
chart.

NOTE: Before attempting to
adjust suspension, clean dirt and
debris from the sleeve and remove
load from the suspension; then use
the spanner wrench to adjust the
sleeve to the desired position.
General Lubrication
Cables
None of the cables require lubrication;
however, it is advisable to lubricate the
ends of the cables periodically with a
good cable lubricant.
Engine Oil and Screen
NOTE: Refer to the recommended
oil viscosity chart (on page 51) in
this manual for the proper engine oil.
Change the engine oil and clean the oil
screen at the scheduled intervals. The
engine should always be warm when the
oil is changed so the oil will drain easily
and completely.
1. Park the ATV on level ground.
2. Loosen the oil fill plug. Be careful
not to allow contaminates to enter
the opening.

3. Remove the screen/filter cap from
the bottom of the crankcase. Drain
the oil into a drain pan.
4. Using a brush and parts-cleaning
solvent, clean the screen/filter; then
clean the cap and inspect the O-ring.
