Engine oil
Engine oil is used in 4T engines to lubricate the distribution elements, the bench bearings and the
thermal group. An insufficient quantity of oil can cause serious damage to the engine. In all 4T
engines, a loss of efficiency in oil performance and a certain level of consumption should be considered
normal. Consumption is specially affected by use conditions (e.g.: oil consumption increases when
driving at "full throttle". The replacement frequencies provided for by the maintenance programme are
defined, depending on the total contents of oil in the engine and average consumption measured fol-
lowing standardised methods. In order to avoid problems, it is advisable to control oil level every
time the vehicle is used.
Replacement
Replace oil and clean the mesh filter every 6,000
km. The engine must be drained by running off the
oil from drainage cap «B» with hot engine. To fa-
cilitate oil drainage, loosen the cap «C» and take
out the mesh filter. After cleaning and refitting the
mesh filter, tighten cap «C», refill with about 650
cc oil through cap «A». Then start up the scooter,
leave it running for a few minutes and switch it off:
5 minutes later check oil level and, if necessary,
add oil without exceeding the MAX level. Only use
new oil of the recommend type for oil top-ups and
change.
