Engine oil level (03_01)
In four-stroke engines, the engine oil is used to lubricate the timing elements, the
bench bearings and the head-engine block-piston assembly.
An insufficient quantity
of oil can cause serious damage to the engine
. In all four-stroke engines, a loss of
efficiency in oil performance and certain consumption should be considered normal.
Consumption can particularly reflect the conditions of use (e.g.: while riding, the use
of the vehicle with the throttle grip mainly open implies higher oil consumption).
In order to avoid problems, it is advisable to control oil level every time the
vehicle is used.

Engine oil level check (03_02)
Every time the vehicle is used, visually inspect the level of the engine oil when the
engine is cold (after
completely unscrewing
the oil cap/dipstick). The oil level should
be somewhere between the MAX and MIN index marks on the level rod; «
A
»; while
the oil is being checked, the vehicle must be resting on its centre stand on an even,
horizontal surface.
If the check is carried out after the vehicle has been used, and therefore with a hot
engine, the level will be lower; in order to carry out a correct check, wait at least 10
minutes after the engine has been stopped so as to get the correct level.
