This Supplementary Service Manual has been prepared to introduce new service and data for the
YFM4FAT/YFM400FAT. For complete service information procedures it is necessary to use this
Supplementary Service Manual together with the following manual.
This manual was produced by the Yamaha Motor Company primarily for use by Yamaha dealers
and their qualified mechanics. It is not possible to include all the knowledge of a mechanic in one
manual, so it is assumed that anyone who uses this book to perform maintenance and repairs on
Yamaha machine has a basic understanding of the mechanical ideas and the procedures of
machine repair. Repairs attempted by anyone without this knowledge are likely to render the
machine unsafe and unfit for use.
Yamaha Motor Company, Ltd. is continually striving to improve all its models. Modifications and
significant changes in specifications or procedures will be forwarded to all authorized Yamaha
dealers and will appear in future editions of this manual where applicable.
OTE:
Designs and specifications are subject to change without notice.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Particularly important information is distinguished in this manual by the following notations.
The Safety Alert Symbol means ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR
SAFETY IS INVOLVED!
WARNING
CAUTION:
NOTE:
Failure to follow WARNING instructions could result in severe injury or death
to the machine operator, a bystander or a person inspecting or repairing the
machine.
A CAUTION indicates special precautions that must be taken to avoid
damage to the machine.
A NOTE provides key information to make procedures easier or clearer.

HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL
MANUAL ORGANIZATION
This manual consists of chapters for the main categories of subjects. (See “Illustrated symbols”)
1st title 1: This is the title of the chapter with its symbol in the upper right corner of each page.
2nd title 2: This title indicates the section of the chapter and only appears on the first page of each
section. It is located in the upper left corner of the page.
3rd title 3: This title indicates a sub-section that is followed by step-by-step procedures
accompanied by corresponding illustrations.
EXPLODED DIAGRAMS
To help identify parts and clarify procedure steps, there are exploded diagrams at the start of each
removal and disassembly section.
1. An easy-to-see exploded diagram 4 is provided for removal and disassembly jobs.
2. Numbers 5 are given in the order of the jobs in the exploded diagram. A number that is enclosed
by a circle indicates a disassembly step.
3. An explanation of jobs and notes is presented in an easy-to-read way by the use of symbol marks
6
. The meanings of the symbol marks are given on the next page.
4. A job instruction chart 7 accompanies the exploded diagram, providing the order of jobs, names
of parts, notes in jobs, etc.
5. For jobs requiring more information, the step-by-step format supplements 8 are given in addition
to the exploded diagram and the job instruction chart.

PERIODIC CHECKS AND ADJUSTMENTS
INTRODUCTION
This chapter includes all information necessary to perform recommended checks and adjustments.
These preventive maintenance procedures, if followed, will ensure more reliable vehicle operation
and a longer service life. The need for costly overhaul work will be greatly reduced. This information
applies to vehicles already in service as well as to new vehicles that are being prepared for sale. All
service technicians should be familiar with this entire chapter.
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE/LUBRICATION
NOTE:
• For ATVs not equipped with an odometer or an hour meter, follow the month maintenance intervals.
• For ATVs equipped with an odometer or an hour meter, follow the km (mi) or hours maintenance
intervals. However, keep in mind that if the ATV isn’t used for a long period of time, the month
maintenance intervals should be followed.

* Since these items require special tools, data and technical skills, have a Yamaha dealer perform the ser-
vice.
NOTE:
• Recommended brake fluid: DOT 4
• Brake fluid replacement:
1. When disassembling the master cylinder or caliper, replace the brake fluid. Normally check the
brake fluid level and add fluid as required.
2. On the inner parts of the master cylinder and caliper, replace the oil seals every two years.
3. Replace the brake hoses every four years, or if cracked or damaged.
