PERIODIC MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENT
EAUT1352
Engine oil and oil strainerThe engine oil level should be
checked before each ride. In addition,
the oil must be changed and the oil
strainer cleaned at the intervals speci-
fi ed in the periodic maintenance and
lubrication chart. The engine oil must
also be changed at the initial 1000 km
(600 mi) and when the oil change indi-
cator fl ashes. The oil change tripmeter
must be reset after the initial 1000 km
(600 mi). (See page 3-3 for reset pro-
cedures.)
To check the engine oil level
1. Place the vehicle on the center-
stand. A slight tilt to the side can
result in a false reading.
2. Start the engine, warm it up for
several minutes, and then turn it
off.
3. Wait a few minutes until the oil
settles, remove the oil fi ller cap,
wipe the dipstick clean, insert it
back into the oil fi ller hole (without
screwing it in), and then remove it
again to check the oil level.
TIPThe engine oil should be between the
minimum and maximum level marks.ZAUM00**

mum level mark, add suffi cient oil
of the recommended type to raise
it to the correct level.
5. Insert the dipstick into the oil fi ller
hole, and then tighten the oil fi ller
cap.
To change the engine oil and clean
the oil strainer
1. Start the engine, warm it up for
several minutes, and then turn it off.
2. Place an oil pan under the engine
to collect the used oil.
3. Remove the engine oil fi ller cap
and drain bolts to drain the oil
from the crankcase.
NOTICE:
When removing the engine oil
drain bolt, the O-ring, spring,
and oil strainer will fall out.
Take care not to lose these
parts.

O-ring and engine oil drain bolts,
and then tighten the drain bolts to
the specifi ed torque.Tightening torque:
Engine oil drain bolt A:
20 Nm (2.0 m·kgf, 14.5 ft·lbf)
Engine oil drain bolt B:
20 Nm (2.0 m·kgf, 14.5 ft·lbf)TIPMake sure that the O-ring is properly
seated.

NOTICE● Do not use oils with a diesel
speci cation of “CD” or oils of
a higher quality than speci ed.
In addition, do not use oils la-
beled “ENERGY CONSERVING
II” or higher.
● Be sure no foreign material en-
ters the crankcase.
8. Start the engine, and then let
it idle for several minutes while
checking it for oil leakage. If oil is
leaking, immediately turn the en-
gine off and check for the cause.
9. Turn the engine off, and then
check the oil level and correct it if
necessary.
10. Reset the oil change tripmeter.
(See page 3-3 for reset proce-
dures.)
TIPIf the engine oil is changed before
the oil change indicator fl ashes (i.e.
before the periodic oil change interval
has been reached), the oil change
tripmeter must be reset after the
oil change for the next periodic oil
change to be indicated at the correct
time.
