I was wondering when you check the oil level in your atv... when its cold cold or after 5 minutes of ideling or after its fully warmed up

i noticed the oil is low when cold and when its just warming up its still low and when its hot its right on the full marking

 

the manual says to start the motor & let it run for 30 seconds, then check it by turning the dipstick all the
way in, I always do it this way so I get a consistent way of checking it, this is for my 500HO scrammy,
I would think it is the same way for yours.

 

alright then ill have to do that from now on sounds like a good way to do it! Thanks
