CAUTION: Replace chain, sprocket
axle and pinion together to prevent
rapid chain and sprocket wear. In-
stall a new retaining ring each time
the pinion is removed.
NOTE: The drive pinion must be in-
stalled with the lip toward the outside
of vehicle.

Wheel

Occasionally, wheel nuts should be
removed 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,
lubricate then retorque to 70 N•m
(52 lbf•ft).
Wheel Bearing/Bushings
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.

Tires/Wheels

Tire Pressure
Tire pressure greatly affects vehi-
cle handling and stability. Under-
pressure may cause tire to deflate
and rotate on wheel. Overpres-
sure may burst the tire. Always
follow recommended pressure.
Since tires are low-pressure types,
a manual pump should be used.
Check pressure when tires are "cold"
before using the vehicle. Tire pres-
sure changes with temperature and
altitude. Recheck pressure if one of
these conditions has changed.
For your convenience, a pressure
gauge is supplied in tool kit.
UP to
175 kg
(386 lb)
Although the tires are specifically de-
signed for off-road use, a flat may still
occur. Therefore, it is recommended
to carry a tire pump and a repair kit.
Tire/Wheel Condition
Check tire for damage and wear. Re-
place if necessary.
Do not rotate tires. The front and rear
tires have a different size. The tires
are directional and their rotation must
be kept in a specific direction for prop-
er operation.
Wheel Removal
Loosen nuts then lift vehicle. Place a
support under vehicle. Remove nuts
then remove wheel.
