3. Check and Replacement of Engine Oil
Using a high quality engine oil and replacing it frequently are
vital to the long term performance and durability of the en-
gine. The engine oil level should be checked prior to vehicle
use each day and should be maintained at the upper dipstick
mark between preventative maintenance inspections.
Warning:
The engine should be turned off, ignition switch in
the off position, and away from heat sources and fire during
refueling.
Use caution not to overfill the fuel tank when refilling. DO
NOT fill the fuel level in the fuel tank above the filler neck.
Start the engine and allow it to idle for a few minutes to warm up
the engine oil, then turn off the engine and allow it to sit for one
minute:
① Place the scooter on the center stand, remove the dipstick and
wipe it using a clean rag.
② Reinsert the dipstick (DO NOT screw it in)
③ Remove the dipstick and check the oil level on the dipstick,
refill the engine if the level is below the upper level mark.
④ During the break-in period, the engine oil should be changed
at 200mi, 400mi, 600mi and 1000mi after this period, you should
change it every 2000mi.
⑤ The oil volume is 1.4 L, and 1.3L when replacing.
⑥ The oil volume shall not fall below the lower limit on the dip
-
stick.
⑦ Driving on dusty roads, cold environments and places with
poor traffic conditions, may cause the degradation of the engine
oil. Please replace more frequently if used in these conditions.
⑧ Please use a high quality oil with high purity and perfor
-
mance which complies with SF grade or super grade. The type is
SAE10W/40.
Attention:
The oil level should be checked frequently during use,
please refill in a timely fashion if the oil level is low. The oil level
will be inaccurate if checked while the scooter is on an incline or
other uneven surface. Only check the engine oil when the engine
has been shut off and take care not to get burned by the hot en
-
gine surfaces.
