Engine Oil & Filter
Oil Tank Level Check
Check the oil tank level.
Do not snap the throttle while idling because the oil level reading will
be inaccurate.
Start the engine and let it idle for 5 minutes. If the air temperature is
below 10°C (50°F), let the engine idle for an additional 5 minutes (a
total of 10 minutes).
Stop the engine and wait 2 – 3 minutes.
Remove the oil fill cap/dipstick from the oil tank and wipe it clean.
Check the oil level by inserting the oil fill cap/dipstick into the oil fill
hole without screwing it in.
The engine contains a sufficient amount of oil if the oil level is
between the upper level mark (3) and the lower level mark (4) on the
oil fill cap/dipstick.
If the oil level is near or below the lower level mark, add the
recommended engine oil up to the upper level mark.
NOTICE
Running the engine with an improper oil level can cause serious
engine damage.
