  • Funnel
  • New oil filter
  • Engine oil (check your manual for the correct type & amount)

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 all the old oil drains out.

2. Locate the Drain Plug

The drain plug is located at the bottom of the engine. Place the drain pan underneath to catch the old oil.

3. Drain the Old Oil

Use a socket wrench to remove the drain plug. Allow the oil to completely drain into the pan. Once drained, replace the drain plug and tighten it securely.

4. Replace the Oil Filter

Use the oil filter wrench to remove the old oil filter. Before installing the new filter, apply a small amount of new oil to the rubber seal of the filter. Install the new filter by hand, ensuring it is snug but not overtightened.

5. Add New Oil

Remove the oil fill cap and insert a funnel. Pour the new oil into the engine, checking the level with the dipstick to ensure you add the correct amount. Replace the oil fill cap once done.

6. Check for Leaks

Start the engine and let it run for a few minutes. Check around the oil filter and drain plug for any leaks. If there are no leaks, your oil change is complete.
