OIL FILTER
Use Oil Filters that are specifically designed for your Honda ATV!
NOTICE
The following is general instructions on how to properly change you motor oil. Please refer to you owners manual for specific instructions.
Changing Engine Oil & Oil Filter
Refer to Safety Precautions.
Your ATV's oil filter has very specific performance requirements. Use a new genuine Honda oil filter specified for your model or a filter of equal quality.
NOTICE
Using the wrong oil filter may result in leaks or premature engine damage.
This procedure requires mechanical skill and professional tools such as a torque wrench and oil filter wrench, as well as a means for disposing of the drained fluid (see "You & the Environment" below). If you do not have the skills or the tools, see your Honda dealer.
Drain the Engine Oil:
1. With the ATV on the level ground, start the engine and let it idle for a few minutes.
2. Stop the engine, place an oil drain pan under the oil tank and crankcase. Remove the oil filler cap, the drain plug on the oil tank and drain plug on the crankcase.
Install a New Engine Oil Filter:
3. Remove the oil filter bolt and oil filter cover. Let the remaining oil drain out.
4. Remove the oil filter from the cover.
5. Remove the spring and washer. Do not discard the washer with the old oil filter.
6. Discard the oil filter.
7. Check that the O-rings are in good condition and then insert a new oil filter to the oil filter cover.
Use only the Honda genuine oil filter or a filter of equivalent quality specified for your model. Using the wrong Honda filter or a non-Honda filter which is not of equivalent quality may cause engine damage.
8. Install the oil filter cover and tighten the oil filter bolt. Make sure the oil filter bolt is tightened securely to the specified torque.
Oil filter bolt torque:
7 lbf-ft(18 N-m, 1.8 kgf-m)
NOTICE
Improper installation of the oil filter can cause serious engine damage.
9. Pour the drained oil into a suitable container and dispose of it in an approved manner.
NOTICE
Improper disposal of drained fluids is harmful to the environment.
Add Engine Oil:
10. Check that the drain plug sealing washer is in good condition. If necessary, replace the sealing washer.
11. Install the drain bolts and tighten to the specified torque:
Oil tank drain bolt:
18 lbf-ft (25 N-m, 2.5 kgf-m)
Crankcase drain bolt:
18 lbf-ft (25 N-m, 2.5 kgf-m)
12. Fill the oil tank with the recommended grade oil; approximately:
see owners manual)
13. Reinstall the oil filler cap.
14. Start the engine and let it idle for 5 minutes.
15. Stop the engine and after a few minutes, remove the oil filler cap and dipstick.
16. Add the recommended oil up to the upper level mark. (Do not overfill.)
17. Reinstall the oil filler cap and dipstick.
18. Check that there are no oil leaks.
If a torque wrench was not used for installation, see your authorized Honda dealer as soon as possible to verify proper assembly.
Oil Recommendation
API classification SG or higher except oils labeled as energy conserving on the circular API service label
viscosity (weight) SAE 10W-40
JASO T 903 standard MA
suggested oil* Pro Honda GN4 or HP4 (without molybdenum additives) 4-stroke oil (USA & Canada), or Honda 4-stroke oil (Canada only), or an equivalent motorcycle oil.
*Suggested oils are equal in performance to SJ oils that are not labeled as energy conserving on the circular API service label.
Your ATV does not need oil additives. Use the recommended oil.
Do not use oils with graphite or molybdenum additives. They may adversely affect clutch operation.
Do not use API SH or higher oils displaying a circular API "energy conserving" service label on the container. They may affect lubrication and clutch performance.
Do not use non-detergent, vegetable or castor based racing oils.
Other viscosities shown in the accompanying chart may be used when the average temperature in your riding area is within the indicated range.
JASO T 903 standard
The JASO T 903 standard is an index to choose engine oils for 4-stroke motorcycle engines.
There are two classes: MA and MB.
Oil conforming to the standard has the classification shown on the right on the oil container.
You & the Environment
Owning and riding an ATV can be enjoyable, but you must do your part to protect nature. When you show respect for the land, wildlife, and other people, you also help preserve the sport of off-road riding.
Following are tips on how you can be an environmentally-responsible ATV owner.
Tread Lightly. Stay on existing roads and trails, avoid surfaces that are easily damaged, and ride only in areas approved for off-road vehicles.
Keep the Noise Down. Loud vehicles can be offensive. Ride as quietly as possible, don't remove your spark arrester, and don't modify the muffler or any other part of your air intake and exhaust systems. Such modifications not only increase noise, they also reduce engine performance and may be illegal.
Choose Sensible Cleaners. Use a biodegradable detergent when you wash your ATV. Avoid aerosol spray cleaners that contain chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) which damage the atmosphere's protective ozone layer. Don't throw cleaning solvents away, see the following guidelines for proper disposal.
Recycle Wastes. It's illegal and thoughtless to put used engine oil in the trash, down a drain, or on the ground. Used oil, gasoline, coolant, and cleaning solvents contain poisons that can hurt refuse workers and contaminate our drinking water, lakes, rivers, and oceans. Before changing your oil, make sure you have the proper containers. Put oil and other toxic wastes in separate sealed containers and take them to a recycling center. Call your local or state office of public works or environmental services to find a recycling center in your area, and to get instructions on how to dispose of non-recyclable wastes.
