a. Warm up the engine for several minutes,
and stop it, then wait at least several min-
utes for the oil to drain back into the crank-
case.
Never remove the dipstick just after high
speed operation because the heated oil
could spurt out. Wait until the oil cools
down before removing the dipstick.
b. Screw the dipstick
completely out, and
wipe the dipstick clean, then just rest the
dipstick in the hole.
c. Pull up the dipstick, and check the oil level
whether or not it is between maximum
and minimum level
.
d. If the level is lower, add the oil up to the
proper level.
Recommended oil classification:
API service SG type or higher, JASO standard
MA.
• Do not add any chemical additives.
Engine oil also lubricates the clutch and
additives could cause clutch slippage.
• Do not allow foreign material to enter the
crankcase.
