Deteriorated engine oil will shorten the life of the sliding and rotating parts to a great extent. Be sure to check the period and quantity of
replacement.

engine main unit and engine oil are sufficiently cooled down. Otherwise, there may remain a risk of scald. In addition just after of the
engine stopping because oil does not finish to return in the oil case, becomes cause of the oil inserting too much
• If the oil filled above the limit, it may be contaminated or may catch fire with white smoke.
