Engine oil level
In 4T engines, the engine oil is used to lubricate the distribution elements, the bench
bearings and the thermal group.
An insufficient quantity of oil can seriously dam-
age the engine.
In all 4T engines the decay of oil characteristics as well as some
consumption is normal. Consumption can particularly reflect the conditions of use (i.e.
when driving at 'full acceleration' all the time, oil consumption increases).
In order to avoid problems, it is advisable to control oil level every time the
vehicle is used.

Engine oil level check (03_01, 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.
