• Place the vehicle on a suitable stand.
• Make sure the vehicle is upright.
2. Start the engine, warm it up for several
minutes, and then turn it off.

The engine oil level should be between
the minimum level mark “a” and maxi-
mum level mark “b”.

recommended engine oil to the proper
level.

• Engine oil also lubricates the clutch and
the wrong oil types or additives could
cause clutch slippage. Therefore, do not
add any chemical additives or use engine
oils with a grade of CD or higher and do
not use oils labeled “ENERGY CONSERV-
ING II”.
• Do not allow foreign materials to enter the
crankcase.
4. Start the engine, warm it up for several
minutes, and then turn it off.
5. Check the engine oil level again.
Before checking the engine oil level, wait a few
minutes until the oil has settled.
