must be changed and the oil filter car-
tridge replaced at the intervals speci-
fied in the periodic maintenance and

result in a false reading.

off.
3. Wait a few minutes until the oil set- tles.
4. Remove the engine oil dipstick and wipe it clean, insert it back
into the hole (without screwing it
in), and then remove it again to
check the oil level.
TIP

minimum and maximum level marks.
5. If the engine oil is at or below theminimum level mark, remove the
engine oil filler cap, and then add
sufficient oil of the recommended
type to raise it to the correct level.
6. Insert and tighten the engine oil dipstick, and then install and tight-
en the oil filler cap.
To chan ge the en gine oil (with or
without oil filter cartridge replace-
ment) 1. Remove cowling B. (See page 6-7.)
2. Start the engine, warm it up for several minutes, and then turn it
off.
3. Place an oil pan under the engine to collect the used oil.
4. Remove the engine oil filler cap, the engine oil drain bolt and its
