Tools and Materials Needed

  • Socket wrench set
  • Drain pan
  • Funnel
  • New oil filter
  • 4-stroke engine oil (check your owner's manual for specifications)
  • Rags or paper towels

Step-by-Step Guide

1. Prepare Your ATV

Ensure your CFORCE 400 is on a level surface and the engine is cool. This prevents burns and ensures all the old oil drains out completely.

2. Locate the Drain Plug

Find the oil drain plug underneath the engine. Place the drain pan beneath it 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 and tighten the drain plug 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 gasket on the top 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 use a funnel to pour the new oil into the engine. Refer to your owner's manual for the correct oil capacity. After filling, replace the oil fill cap.

6. Check Oil Level

Start the engine and let it run for a few minutes. Turn it off and wait a moment, then check the oil level using the dipstick. Add more oil if necessary to reach the recommended level.
