ENGINE OIL LEVEL INSPECTION
1. Start the engine, warm it up for several
minutes and wait for five minutes.
2. Place the machine on a level place and
hold it up on upright position by placing
the suitable stand under the engine.
3. Remove:
Dipstick

4. Check:
Oil level
Oil level should be between maximum
a
and minimum
b
marks.
Oil level is low
→
Add oil to proper
level.
NOTE:
When inspecting the oil level, do not screw the
dipstick into the oil tank. Insert the gauge
lightly.
(For USA and CDN)
CAUTION:
Do not add any chemical additives.
Engine oil also lubricates the clutch and
additives could cause clutch slippage.
Do not allow foreign material to enter the
crankcase.

level once again.
NOTE:
Wait a few minutes until the oil settles before
inspecting the oil level.
