Check / Fill Transmission Oil
Oil Type:
1. Check the oil level when the unit is cold. Locate the | A | |
transmission oil reservoirs (A, Figure 12) located on the | ||
handle bar assembly. The oil should be up to the “FULL |
| |
COLD” mark (B). If the oil is below this level, proceed |
| |
to step 2. |

2. Before removing the reservoir caps, make sure the area |
| |
around the reservoir cap and fill neck of the reservoir is |
| |
free of dust, dirt, or other debris. Remove the reservoir | B | |
cap. | ||
