Step-by-Step Guide

1. Prepare Your ATV

Ensure your ATV is on a level surface and the engine is cool. This prevents burns and ensures accurate oil drainage.

Remove the oil fill cap and insert a funnel. Pour in the new oil, checking the level with the dipstick to ensure it is within the recommended range. Replace the oil fill cap.

6. Reattach the Skid Plate

Secure the skid plate back in place using the bolts removed earlier.
