Gasoline-Oil-Lubricant

Recommended Gasoline
The recommended gasoline to use in this
ATV is EU unleaded 91 octane. In some
areas, oxygenates (either ethanol or
MTBE) are added to the gasoline. Oxy-
genated gasolines containing up to 10%
ethanol, 5% methane, or MTBE are
acceptable gasolines.
When using ethanol blended gasoline, it is
not necessary to add a gasoline antifreeze
since ethanol will prevent the accumulation
of moisture in the fuel system.
CAUTION
Do not use white gas. Only Arctic Cat
approved gasoline additives should be
used.
Recommended Engine/
Transmission Oil

NOTE: Arctic Cat recommends the

CAUTION
Any oil used in place of the recom-
mended oil could cause serious
engine damage. Do not use oils which
contain graphite or molybdenum addi-
tives. These oils can adversely affect
clutch operation. Also, not recom-
mended are racing, vegetable, non-
detergent, and castor-based oils.

Filling Gas Tank
! WARNING
Always fill the gas tank in a well-ven-
tilated area. Never add gasoline to
the ATV gas tank near any open
flames or with the engine running or
hot. DO NOT SMOKE while filling the
gas tank.
Since gasoline expands as its temperature
increases, the gas tank must be filled to its
rated capacity only. Expansion room must
be maintained in the tank particularly if the
tank is filled with cold gasoline and then
moved to a warm area.
