Drive Shaft Boot/Protector

Inspection
Visually inspect drive shaft protectors
and boots conditions. Check protec-
tors for damage or rubbing against
shafts. Check boots for cracks, tears,
leaking grease etc. Repair or replace
damaged parts as necessary.

Wheel

Occasionally, wheel nuts should be re-
moved to apply anti-seize lubricant on
studs to ease future removal. This is
particularly important when vehicle is
used in salt-water environment or in
mud. Remove one nut at a time, lu-
bricate then retorque.

Wheel Bearing Condition

Push and pull the wheels from the up-
per edge to feel the play. See an au-
thorized Can-Am dealer if there is any
play.
