Engine oil
In 4T engines, the engine oil is used 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, the deterioration of the oil characteristics, or a certain consumption should be con-
sidered normal, especially if during the run-in period. Consumption levels in particular can be influenced
by the conditions of use (e.g.: oil consumption increases when driving at "full throttle".
Replacement
At 1,000 km and after every 10,000 km, the oil and
the filter must be changed. The engine must be
drained by running off the oil from drainage cap
"B" of the flywheel side gauze pre-filter; further-
more to facilitate oil drainage, loosen the cap/
dipstick "A". Once all the oil has drained through
the drainage hole, unscrew the oil cartridge filter
"C" and remove it.
