Transfer case oil

The transfer case must be checked for

oil leakage before each ride. If any

leakage is found, have a Yamaha deal-

er check and repair the vehicle. In addi-

tion, the transfer case oil level should

be checked and the oil must be

changed at the intervals specified in the

periodic maintenance and lubrication

chart.

To check the transfer case oil level

1. Place the vehicle on a level sur-

face and hold it in an upright posi-

tion. A slight tilt to the side can

result in a false reading.

2. Remove the transfer case oil level

check bolt and its gasket, and then

check the oil level in the transfer

case.

TIP

The oil should be at the brim of the

check hole.

3. If the oil is below the brim of the

check hole, remove the transfer

case oil filler cap, add sufficient oil

of the recommended type to raise

it to the correct level, and then in-

stall the oil filler cap.

4. Check the gasket for damage, and

replace it if necessary.

5. Install the oil level check bolt and

its gasket, and then tighten the bolt

to the specified torque.
