How do you check the oil on a 2001 arctic cat 400 4x4 and how much does it hold?

On the right side of the engine is the oil level sight window.


It's round, clear, about 1" in diameter.





Procedure to check the oil level -


Start and run the engine for a few minutes - to allow the oil to circulate


throughout the engine.


Stop the engine and let it rest for a few minutes - to allow the oil to settle


to the bottom of the crankcase.


The oil level should cover 1/2 - 3/4 of the oil level sight window.


Add or drain oil as necessary.
