LUBRICATION

8. Engine oil

Check the engine oil level when the Rider is on level ground.

Release the rubber strap under the seat and raise the engine hood.

Take out the dipstick, wipe it clean and push it in again.

Do not screw in the dipstick.

Take out the dipstick again and read the oil level.

The oil level should be between the marks on the dipstick. If the level is close to the “ADD” mark, top up with oil to the “FULL” mark on the dipstick. Never fill above the “FULL” mark.

Oil is added through the hole that the dipstick sits in.

Use SAE 30 or SAE 10W-30 grade engine oil, or 10W/40, class SC–SH (above 0° C/+32°F). SAE 40 oil can be used above +20°C/+68°F.

Use SAE 5W-20 engine oil, class SC–SH (below 0° C/+32°F).

The engine holds 1.5 litres of oil, excluding the filter (1.7 litres including filter).
