MAINTENANCE
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
To increase the life of a vehicle that is used in rough conditions, some maintenance must be done
more often than recommended in the Periodic Service Schedule. For example: high or low tem-
peratures, high dust and dirt conditions, high use with maximum load.
To access the powertrain for normal maintenance, lift or remove the seat and remove the rear access panel.
For major repairs, refer to the applicable Technician’s Repair and Service Manual.
Some service procedures make it necessary to lift the vehicle. Refer to LIFTING THE VEHICLE for correct lift
procedure and safety information.
Brake Master Cylinder
Fluid level in the Brake Master Cylinder should be checked per the Periodic Service Schedule. Brake fluid
level must be maintained between the MIN and MAX indicators on the master cylinder body. Make sure that
the area is clean and free of dirt before removing cap from the master cylinder to add fluid.
