Lubrication

Checking the engine’s oil level.

Check the oil level in the engine when the Rider stands horizontal with the engine switched off.

Open the engine cover.

Loosen the dipstick, pull it up and wipe it off.

Now insert the dipstick again, without tightening it.

Pull the dipstick out again and read the oil level.

The oil level should be between the markings on the dipstick. If the level is approaching the ADD mark, top up the oil to the FULL mark on the dipstick.

The oil is topped up through the hole the dipstick sits in. Fill the oil slowly.

Tighten the dipstick correctly before starting the engine. Start and run the engine at idling speed for approx. 30 seconds. Turn off the engine. Wait 30 seconds and check the oil level. If necessary fill so that the oil comes up to the FULL mark on the dipstick.

The following oil classes are recommended:

•API Service Class: SF, SG, SH and SJ

Choose an oil with viscosity according to the temperature ranges in the figure:

Do not mix different types of oil.

Caution when using oils such as 5W-20, 10W-30 and 10W-40 the engine’s oil consumption increases. If these oils must be used, check the oil level frequently.

Replacing the engine oil

The engine oil should be changed the first time after 5 hours running time. It should then be changed after every 100 hours of running time.

When operating with a heavy load or at high ambient temperatures, replace every 50 hours.

!drained directly after stopping the engine. Allow the engine to cool somewhat first.

1Place a container underneath the engine’s left oil drain plug.

2Remove the dipstick. Remove the drain plug from the engine’s left side.

3Let the oil run out into the container.

4Fit the drain plug and tighten it.

5If necessary fill so that the oil comes up to the FULL mark on the dipstick. The oil is topped up through the hole the dipstick sits in. See Checking the engine’s oil level for filling instructions. The engine holds 1.5 litres (1.6 USqt) when the oil filter is not replaced and 1.7 litres (1.8 USqt) of oil when the oil filter is replaced.

6Run the engine warm, then check that there is no leakage from the oil plug.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Used engine oil is a health hazard and must not be disposed of on the ground or in nature; it should always be disposed of at a workshop or appropriate disposal location.

Avoid skin contact; wash with soap and water in case of spills.

Changing the oil filter

The oil filter must be replaced after every 200 hours running time. Turn the old oil filter anti-clockwise to remove. If necessary, use a filter remover.

Lightly lubricate the rubber seal on the new oil filter using new oil. Fit the oil filter by turning clockwise. Turn by hand until the rubber seal is seated. Now tighten a further half turn.
