Careful periodic maintenance will help keep your vehicle in the safest, most reliable condition. Inspection, adjustment and lubrication of important components are explained in the periodic maintenance chart. Inspect, clean, lubricate, adjust and replace parts as necessary. When inspection reveals the need for replacement parts, use genuine parts available from your dealer. 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. Maintenance intervals in the following chart are based upon average riding conditions and an average vehicle speed of approximately ten (10) miles per hour. Vehicles subjected to severe use must be inspected and serviced more frequently.
Severe Use Definition
Frequent immersion in mud, water or sand
Racing or race-style high RPM use
Prolonged low speed 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 crankcase. 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.

Throttle System
WARNING
Failure to check or maintain proper operation of the throttle system can result in an accident and lead to serious injury or death if the throttle pedal sticks during operation. Never start or operate this vehicle if it has a sticking or improperly operating throttle pedal. Immediately contact your dealer for service if throttle problems arise. Always check the pedal for free movement and return before starting the engine and occasionally during operation.
Throttle Freeplay
If the throttle pedal has excessive play or misadjustment, it will cause a delay in throttle response, especially at low engine speed. The throttle may also not open fully. If the throttle pedal has no freeplay, the throttle may be hard to control, and the idle speed may be erratic. Check the throttle pedal freeplay at the intervals outlined in the Periodic Maintenance Chart beginning on page 49. Adjust the freeplay if necessary.

Brakes
Always check brake pedal travel and the brake fluid reservoir level before each use of the vehicle. When applied, the brake pedal should feel firm. Any sponginess would indicate a possible fluid leak or low brake fluid level, which must be corrected before riding. See page74 for brake fluid information. If you discover any irregularities in brake system operation, including excessive pedal travel, contact your dealer for proper diagnosis and repairs.
Operating the vehicle with a spongy brake pedal can result in loss of braking, which could cause an
accident resulting in severe injury or death. Never operate the vehicle with a spongy-feeling brake
pedal.
Brake Inspection
1. Check the brake system for fluid leaks.
2. Check the brake pedal for
excessive travel or a spongy feel.
3. Check the friction pads for
wear, damage and looseness.
4. Inspect the brake pad wear
surface for excessive wear.
5. Change pads when worn to 3/64" (1 mm).

MAINTENANCE
Brakes
Brake Fluid
Inspect the level of the brake fluid before each operation. If the fluid level is low add DOT 3 or DOT
4 brake fluid.
After opening a bottle of brake fluid, always discard any unused portion. Never store or use a partial bottle. Brake fluid is hygroscopic, meaning it rapidly absorbs moisture from the air. The
moisture causes the boiling temperature of the brake fluid to drop, which can lead to early brake
fade and the possibility of accident or severe injury. Change the brake fluid every two years and any time the fluid becomes contaminated, the fluid level is below the minimum, or if the type and brand of the fluid in the reservoir are unknown. Access the brake fluid reservoir through the left front wheel well.
1. Position the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Place the transmission in neutral. Set the parking brake.
3. View the brake fluid level in the display mirror, the
level should be between the minimum and the maximum. Level below the minimum, you must add the brake fluid.
4. Apply the brake forcefully for a few seconds and Maximum=H Minimum=1/4H Check for fluid leakage around the fittings.

MAINTENANCE
Steering Wheel Inspection
1. Position the vehicle on level ground.
2. Lightly turn the steering wheel left and right.
3. There should be 0.8"-1.0" (20-25 mm) of freeplay.
4. If there is excessive freeplay or strange noises, or the steering feels rough or catchy, have the steering system inspected by an authorized dealer.
Shock Spring Adjustment
The front and rear shock absorber springs are adjustable to increase or decrease spring tension. Rotate the adjuster either clockwise or counterclockwise to make adjustments. Always apply the same adjustment setting to all four wheels.
WARNING! Uneven adjustment may cause poor handling of the vehicle, which could result in an accident. Always adjust both the left and right spring preloads equally or have your dealer perform the adjustments.

Cleaning and Storage 1100cc:
Washing the Vehicle
Keeping your vehicle clean will not only improve its appearance but it can also extend the life of various components. Before washing the vehicle, must pay attention prevents the water to enter inside CTV system from the CVT side cover.
NOTICE:
Water in the CVT system could cause the drive
belt to become wet and slip in the clutches. Always avoid
800cc:
spraying water directly toward the CVT inlet and outlet ducts when washing the vehicle from the rear. High water pressure may damage components. We recommend washing the vehicle by hand or with a garden hose, using mild soap. Certain products, including insect repellents and chemicals, will damage plastic surfaces. Do not allow these types of products to contact the vehicle.
The best and safest way to clean your vehicle is with a garden hose and a pail of mild soap and water.
1. Use a professional-type washing cloth, cleaning the
upper body first and the lower parts last.
2. Rinse with clean water frequently.
3. Dry surfaces with a chamois to prevent water spots.

Cleaning and Storage
Storage
Long term storage (60 days or more) of your machine will require some preventive procedures to guard against deterioration. After thoroughly cleaning the machine, prepare for storage as follows:
1. Drain the fuel system.
2. Remove the spark plug, pour about one tablespoon of SAE 10W30 or 20W40 motor oil in the spark
plug hole and reinstall the spark plug. Ground the spark plug wire and turn the engine over several times to coat the cylinder wall with oil.
3. Block up the frame to raise all wheels off the ground.
4. Tie a plastic bag over the exhaust pipe outlet to prevent moisture from entering.
5. If storing in a humid or salt-air atmosphere, coat all exposed metal surfaces with a light film of oil.
Do not apply oil to any rubber parts or the seat cover.
6. Remove the battery and charge it. Store it in a dry place and recharge it once a month. Do not store
the battery in an excessively warm or cold place (less than 0 °C (30 °F) or more than 30 °C (90 °F)).
