Check (Leaks)

4. Close the engine cover (if applicable).

Check (Level)
WARNING
Never check the oil level or add oil with the engine running. Be careful of hot lubricating oil.
Danger of scalding.
Notice:
Do not exceed the maximum level of engine oil in the sump. If the maximum is exceeded, the
excess must be drained to the correct level. An excess of engine oil could cause the engine speed to
increase rapidly without control.
1. Make the product safe.
Refer to: Maintenance Positions (Page 87).
2. Wait for the oil to drain back into the engine sump before you take a reading. If not, a false low reading
may be recorded which can cause the engine to be overfilled.
3. Get access to the engine compartment (if applicable).
Refer to: Access Apertures (Page 90).
4. Remove and clean the dipstick.
Refer to: Service Points (Page 88).
5. Replace the dipstick.
6. Remove the dipstick.
7. Check the oil level. The oil should be between the two marks on the dipstick.
8. If necessary, add more oil:
8.1. Remove the filler cap.
Refer to: Service Points (Page 88).
8.2. Add the recommended oil slowly through the filler point
