Recommended Oil
Use only the XP-S 5W 40 synthetic oil (P/N 293

for wet clutch type gearbox.
CAUTION: The XP-S 5W 40 synthetic oil is spe-
cially formulated and tested for the severe re-
quirements of this engine. Do not use other
synthetic oil, synthetic blend oil or oil additives
in Can-Am ATV wet clutch equipped vehicles.
There is no known equivalent on the market for
the moment. If a high quality equivalent were
available, it could be used.

Use the oil tank dipstick to check the oil level in
the engine. The engine oil tank is located in front
of engine.
CAUTION: Check level frequently and refill
if necessary. Do not overfill. Operating the
engine with an improper level may severely
damage engine and transmission. Wipe off
any spillage.
