Honda TRX520FM6 4X4 EPS Foreman Rubicon 2023 Manual

To break in your ATV, avoid full-throttle starts and high-speed operation for the first 15 hours of use. Vary the engine speed to allow the components to seat properly. Regularly check the oil level and the coolant during this period.
Use Honda GN4 10W-30 or 10W-40 4-stroke oil, which is formulated specifically for Honda ATVs. Ensure the oil you select meets or exceeds the API service classification SG or higher.
First, check the battery to ensure it is fully charged and the terminals are clean and secure. Inspect the spark plug for wear and replace if necessary. Ensure that the fuel is fresh and the fuel valve is in the 'ON' position.
Perform an oil change every 100 hours or annually. Check the air filter every 25 hours and replace it if it's dirty. Inspect the brake system, drive chain, and tires monthly. Adjust the valve clearance every 600 miles or annually.
To improve fuel efficiency, ensure that the tires are properly inflated, regularly clean or replace the air filter, and perform routine maintenance such as oil changes and spark plug checks. Avoid carrying unnecessary weight.
If the EPS warning light activates, stop using the ATV immediately and check for any obstructions or damage to the steering system. If the issue persists, consult a Honda technician to inspect the EPS system.
To clean the air filter, remove the seat and the air filter cover. Take out the filter and clean it with a mild detergent and water. Allow it to dry completely before reinstalling. Apply a light coat of air filter oil before reassembly.
The Honda TRX520FM6 ATV has a towing capacity of 1,322 pounds (600 kg). Ensure that the load is evenly distributed and securely attached, and never exceed the ATV's towing capacity to maintain safety and performance.
The suspension can be adjusted by changing the preload on the shock absorbers. Use the preload adjuster to increase or decrease stiffness based on your riding preference and terrain. Refer to the owner's manual for specific adjustment procedures.
If the ATV overheats, stop the vehicle and turn off the engine. Check the coolant level and refill if necessary. Ensure that the radiator is not clogged with debris and the fan is operational. Allow the engine to cool before resuming use.
