Massimo Buck 400 Oil Change

[@chlewis123]

Thanks for your helpful video. I have a 2023 Bighorn 400 Explorer from Tractor supply. It has the Nebula engine which looks exactly like the one in your Massimo and hence, your explanations were right on target.

TY, I have a Trailmaster Taurus 450 and their is no maintenance info online. However, the process for oil change is identical to the Massimo Buck. I was scratching my head not seeing an oil filter or an oil cap "anywhere". Thanks Again.

Great quick & to the point video.

[@robertmichie6853]

On the Massimo, is there a place to change or check transmission fluid, new to this and the service guide didnt address this thanks, love your tips

[@suzedeyarmond8968]

Any idea where to find a dipstick for a Massimo 400

[@hilberto2217]

Thanks for the video

[@jorgemaciel6395]

how often needs to be change?

[@sitboxandtattoos6674]

Do you know where to buy parts for this rig I can't find them anywhere

[@DownOnTheRangeFL]

eBay and Amazon. Look for HiSun. Pretty much the same thing

[@Hasnie]

Great information. Do you have a video on coolant change on these UTV’s?

[@DownOnTheRangeFL]

At this time I do not. But I can try to do one when we are back at the property

I have big horn explorer 400 and I tried to find the but I could not find oil filter

It would have been extremely frustrating to attempt this on my own Buck and I'm very appreciative of the hints and clues. I'm just curious though... did Massimo pay you to leave out the actual performance of the steps involved? I can imagine the difficulties involved trying to get video of those steps... it's MUCH simpler to just say "use a 7/8 wrench to remove the dipstick holder" than to show HOW THE FARK you get the wrench ON the dipstick holder without dismantling surrounding paraphenalia. I hope you would agree that this vehicle WAS NOT MADE FOR DIY maintenance.

[@DownOnTheRangeFL]

Hah. They did not. I’m sorry for not including that. If I remember I slipped the box wrench end over the tube. That or I used a crow foot. EDIT: I just rewatched. I turned it a little at a time as shown until I could turn it by hand.

[@DownOnTheRangeFL]

Wait until you get into the electrical system. Makes me scratch my head.

[@sensiblyhonest695]

@@DownOnTheRangeFL Thanks. I'm too old and my arms weren't long enough. But trial and error got me to where I could do basically the same. Having accomplished it once, it'll go easier next time. I'm even less electrically inclined than mechanically... but thanks for the warning.

[@sensiblyhonest695]

@@DownOnTheRangeFL Do you know if there is any sort of transmission release lever similar to those found on riding mowers? My Buck 400 transmission will not engage at all. I changed the oil (carelessly I didn't use wet clutch oil), drove it for about half a mile, drained the oil again and added "wet clutch" oil and the transmission will not engage at all... it's not slipping... just not engaging. I'm hoping there is a lever that I accidentally moved in my efforts.

@@sensiblyhonest695 I looked through the service manual and I do not see anything listed the shifter goes to a pulley near the passenger side rear.
