Engine Oil & Filter

Refer to Safety Precautions on page 119.

Your ATV’s oil filter has very specific performance requirements. Use

a new Honda Genuine oil filter specified for your model or a filter of

equal quality.

NOTICE

Using the wrong oil filter may result in leaks or engine damage.

This procedure requires mechanical skill and professional tools such

as a torque wrench as well as a means for disposing of the drained

fluid (page 214). If you do not have the skills or the tools, see your

dealer.

Change the oil with the engine warm to assure complete and rapid

draining.

Drain the Engine Oil:

With the ATV on the level ground, remove the seat (page 130)

and the tank cover assembly (page 132), and then remove the

engine oil fill cap from the front right crankcase cover.

Place an oil drain pan under the crankcase and remove the

engine oil drain bolt (1) and sealing washer (2).
