Differential gear oil

The differential gear case must be checked for oil
leakage before each ride. If any leakage is found,
have a Yamaha dealer check and repair the ATV.
In addition, the differential gear oil level must be
checked and the oil changed as follows at the in-
tervals specified in the periodic maintenance and
lubrication chart.
To check the differential gear oil level

TIP
The differential gear oil level must be checked
when the engine is cold.
2. Remove the differential gear oil filler bolt, and
then check the oil level in the differential gear
case. The oil level should be at the brim of the
filler hole.
