CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL
WARNING:
Check the oil level before each use. The
importance of maintaining the proper oil level cannot be
overemphasized.
1. Stop the engine and allow it to cool.
2. Set the unit on a flat, level surface. Tip the unit back so that
the handlebar touches the ground and the engine is in a
horizontal position (Fig. 14).
NOTE: Failure to keep the engine level may result in oil overfill.
3. Clean the area around the oil fill plug (Fig. 15) to prevent debris
from entering the oil fill hole (Fig. 15).
4. Unscrew the oil fill plug.
5. Look into the oil fill hole; use a flashlight if necessary. The oil
level should just touch the bottom thread of the oil fill hole
(Fig. 16).
• If the oil level is too low, add a small amount of oil to the oil fill
hole until the oil is at the correct level.
WARNING:
DO NOT overfill the crankcase.
OVERFILLING THE CRANKCASE MAY CAUSE SERIOUS
PERSONAL INJURY.
• If the oil level is too high, tip the unit and drain the excess oil
into an appropriate container (Fig. 17).
6. Wipe up any oil that may have spilled.
7. Make sure the O-ring is in place on the oil fill plug (Fig. 15).
8. Reinstall the oil fill plug.
CHANGING THE OIL
Change the oil while the engine is still warm. The oil will flow freely
and carry away more impurities.
1. Clean the area around the oil fill plug (Fig. 15) to prevent debris
from entering the oil fill hole.
2. Unscrew the oil fill plug.
3. Tip the unit vertically to pour the oil out of the oil fill hole and into
a container (Fig. 17). Allow ample time for complete drainage.
NOTE: Dispose of the old oil according to federal, state and local
regulations.
4. Wipe up any oil that may have spilled.
5. Pour 3.04 fl.oz. (90 ml) of SAE 30 oil into the oil fill hole.
NOTE: DO NOT overfill. Refer to Checking the Oil Level.
6. Wipe up any oil that may have spilled.
7. Make sure the O-ring is in place on the oil fill plug (Fig. 15).
8. Reinstall the oil fill plug.
