While reading this Operator's Guide, remember that:
Indicates a potential hazard that, if not avoided, could result in serious
injury or death.
This section specifies the recommend-
ed liquids and procedures to check
their levels. Refer to MAINTENANCE
for procedures to replace the liquids.
Fuel
Recommended Fuel
Use regular unleaded gasoline or gas-
ohol containing less than 10% of eth-
anol or methanol, available from most
service stations. The gasoline used
must have an octane number of 87
((R + M)/2) or higher.
NOTE: In most service station, pump
oc t a ne nu mb er c or r e s po nd s t o
(R + M)/2 octane number. Usually a
sticker can be found on the pump.
CAUTION: Never experiment with
other fuels. The use of unrecom-
mended fuel can result in vehicle
performance deterioration and dam-
age to critical parts in the fuel sys-
tem and engine components.
CAUTION: Never mix oil with fuel.
This ATV has a 4-stroke engine. Oil
must be added to engine base only.
WARNING
Fuel Level
Always stop engine before refuel-
ing. Open cap slowly. If a differen-
tial pressure condition is noticed
(whistling sound heard when
loosening fuel tank cap) have ve-
hicle inspected and/or repaired
before further operation. Fuel is
flammable and explosive under
certain conditions. Never use an
open flame to check fuel level.
Never smoke or allow flame or
spark in vicinity. Always work in a
well-ventilated area. Never top
up the fuel tank before placing the
vehicle in a warm area. As temper-
ature increases, fuel expands and
may overflow. Always wipe off
any fuel or oil spillage from the
vehicle.
Engine/Transmission Oil
Recommended Oil
Use 4-stroke engine oil that meets or
exceeds the requirements for API ser-
vice classification SG, SH or SJ. Al-
ways check the API service label on
the oil container to be sure it includes
the letters SG, SH or SJ. Only use high-
quality high-detergent oil.
NOTE: The same oil lubricates both
engine and transmission. For improved
overall performance and wear protec-
tion use Bombardier synthetic oil
5W40 (P/N 293 600 039).
