5. Engine Oil
Check the oil level in the engine when the Rider stands
horizontal with the engine switched off.
Open the engine cover.
Remove the dipstick and wipe it clean. Now insert the
dipstick again, without tightening it.
Take the dipstick out again and read the oil level.
The oil level should be between the markings on the
dipstick. If the level is approaching the ”ADD” mark, top
up the oil to the ”FULL mark on the dipstick.
Never fill above the FULL mark.
The oil is topped up through the hole the dipstick sits
in.
Fill the oil slowly. Tighten the dipstick correctly before
starting the engine. Start and run the engine at idling
speed for approx. 30 seconds. Turn off the engine. Wait
30 seconds and check the oil level. If necessary fill so
that the oil comes up to the ”FULL mark on the
dipstick.
