Both the oil dipstick and fill cap must be in place before operating the engine. Failure to install the dipstick and fill cap will result in
oil being discharged into the engine compartment
As a final check, check the oil level again with the vehicle on level ground. Like all liquids, oil increases in volume
when warm. The full ‘H’ mark on the dipstick is calibrated for an engine at operating temperature. When the engine is
cold, the oil will be below the full mark. The engine can be operated safely as long as the oil is within the safe oper-
ating range as indicated on the dipstick.
Do not operate vehicle if oil level is below the safe area indicated on
the dipstick.
AIR FILTER INSPECTION / REPLACEMENT
The air filter assembly on the vehicle is a dry unit. Do not use oil on the filter element or any part of the unit.
The air cleaner is located under the last forward facing
seat. Raise the seat bottom and remove if necessary.
Unsnap the two clips that secure the cover (2) to the canis-
ter (1), remove the cover to access the air filter element
(2). Remove the air filter element (3) and clean the inside
of the canister (1), the cover (2) and the dust collector (4).
Inspect the air filter element (3) and replace it in accor-
dance with the Periodic Service Schedule. Install the air fil-
ter element (3) and replace the cover (2), making sure it is
properly seated then position the clips and snap them
closed.

The starter/generator belt tension should be checked after the first 15 - 20 hours and set to 75 - 80 lbs. (34 - 36 kg).
At no time during installation of belt, should the belt tension exceed 160 lbs (73 kg).
At the time of installation, the belt must not be rolled over the installed edges of the starter/generator or drive
clutch pulleys. Excessive stretch in belt may cause cord failure.
A loose belt can cause audible vibration and squeal.
