TIP
If a torque wrench is not available when installing
the spark plug, a good estimate of the correct
torque is 1/4–1/2 turn past finger tight. However,
the spark plug should be tightened to the speci-
fied torque as soon as possible.

Engine oil and oil filter cartridge
The engine oil level should be checked before
each ride. In addition, the oil must be changed and
the oil filter cartridge replaced at the intervals
specified in the periodic maintenance chart.
To check the engine oil level
1. Park the ATV on a level surface.
2. Check the engine oil level on a cold engine.
TIP
If the engine was started before checking the oil
level, warm up the engine, and then wait at least
10 minutes until the oil settles for an accurate
reading.
3. Remove the access cover by turning it coun-
terclockwise.
4. Remove the engine oil dipstick, and then
wipe it off with a clean rag.
