Super easy, there is an oil drain plug on the bottom, no oil filter on Apollos, just get a new crush washer for the oil drain plug. Best to measure the old one and order a 50pack from amazon they are like $10 for 50. 

Chain is easy too, just jack up the quad make sure in N and spin the tires while spraying some chain lube on the chain. Best to spray downward into the chain as its returning to the rear sprocket. Do two full rotations and that will be plently. Not sure if your machine has a paper stick air filter, but if so consider going to a two stage foam filter....like a UNI also avail on Amazon.

      I'm in the middle of repairing damage from the chain coming off of this from the previous owner. (I learned this is somewhat common on these for various reasons.)
      What are you guys using to either help keep the chain correct and on the sprocket or guarding your engine in the case that it comes off / breaks?
      Is there an upgraded guard that can bolt around the sprocket in replacement of the currently broken OEM alluminum?

      Just some friendly advice on new tires. Check with your ATV dealer. 
      There are so many aftermarket sites, Revco, Royal Distributing, Partzilla, and on and on. Even with their “ big sales”, my local Canam dealer’s REGULAR price beat the tire prices of the 3rd party sellers! People often assume the Dealership will cost them more, but I found this not to be true!

      I just bought a 1984 Suzuki LT185 ATV and am looking for the OWNER’S manual. ( not a service manual) 
      I contacted Suzuki Canada but they have no paper or digital copies in their archives. 
      Does anyone possibly have a digital copy they’d be willing to share?
