Failure to use the correct oil could harm the engine. Be sure to use the oil specified in this section.
•
Running the engine without an adequate amount of engine oil could cause engine overheating and severe
engine damage.
•
Always check the amount of engine oil before starting the engine, and follow the maintenance schedule.
•
Allow the Engine Oil to Circulate Before Riding.
•
Allow enough idling time after warm or cold engine starting. This allows the lubricating oil to reach all critical
engine components.
ENGINE OIL
Your 125cc ATV has a four-stroke engine. The engine
has been filled with SAE 15W/40 (mineral based) oil
prior to shipment and is recommended for the best
performance and lubrication of the engine. SAE15W/40
is suitable for use between temperatures of +40°C and
-10°C, however because viscosity varies with regions
and temperatures, if you wish to use another viscosity,
select a suitable oil as described in the chart above.
Initial oil change should be performed after 10 hours of
operation. Thereafter change oil every 30-50 hours.
ENGINE OIL CAPACITY
The engine oil capacity is 0.9 liters (1 US Quart)

wheels to the left. Turn the engine off and allow it to

3. Wipe the dipstick dry with a clean cloth.
4. Reinstall the dipstick completely.
5. Remove the dipstick and check the oil level.
