MAINTENANCE

Periodic Maintenance Chart

Maintenance intervals in the following chart are based upon average

riding conditions and average vehicle speed of approximately 16 km/h.

Vehicles subjected to severe use must be inspected and serviced more

frequently.
Record maintenance and service in the Maintenance Log beginning on

page 119.

NOTE:

Service and adjustments are important for proper vehicle operation. If

you're not familiar with safe service and adjustment procedures, have

a qualified dealer perform these operations.

Severe Use Definition
• Frequent immersion in mud, water or sand
• Racing or race-style high RPM use
• Prolonged low speed, heavy load operation
• Extended idle
• Short trip cold weather operation
Pay special attention to the oil level. A rise in oil level during cold

weather can indicate contaminants collecting in the oil sump or crank-

case. Change oil immediately if the oil level begins to rise. Monitor the

oil level, and if it continues to rise, discontinue use and determine the

cause or see your dealer.
