Lubrication – Differential / Chain Case
1. Stand the rear engine rider on its rear bumper and check
the fill/level plug (A, Figure34) on the differential (B) for
cracks and wear. Replace the fill/level plug if signs of
wear are visible.
2. To check lubricant, remove the fill/level plug and
visually inspect for lubricant on the internal parts of the
differential. If no lubricant is visible on the internal parts of
the differential, add transmission grease as needed.
Important:Overfilling the differential with lubricant will cause
lubricant to leak onto drive components.
