LUBRICATION

Checking the engine’s oil level

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

The dip stick must be fully screwed down.

Pull out the dip stick. Check the oil level.

The oil level should be between the markings on the dip stick. If the level approaches the ADD mark, top up with oil to the FULL mark.

The oil is filled in the same hole as for the dip stick.

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 oil level. If necessary fill so that the oil comes up to the “FULL” mark on the dip stick.

The following engine oils are recommended:

•API Service Classification: SF, SG, SH or SJ

Choose the viscosity according to the temperatures in the picture:

Do not mix different types of oil.

Remember that using multi grade oils (5W-20, 10W-30, and 10W-40) will increase oil consumption. Check oil level more frequently when using them.
