8 Maintenance and inspection
In order to verify the level of lubricating oil, the engine
must be stopped and cooled down.
The dipstick is located at the right side (seen from the
front) of the engine, next to the injection pump.
The markings on the dipstick indicate the upper and the
lower limit of the oil level. The correct oil level is
spot-on or close to the upper mark. If the engine has not
enough oil, fresh oil of the same specifications must be
added. The difference between the upper and the lower
mark is about 2 liters of oil.
Any lubricating oil in excess will be burnt in the
cylinders, causing black smoke from the exhaust and
strong internal pollution of the engine.

Topping up the lubrication oil
The filler cap is located on top of the rocker cover at the
front of the engine. After topping up wait for 5 minutes
to verify the oil level.
Do not spill oil over the engine; better
use a funnel when adding oil.
Make sure that no oil is added above the
upper mark of the dipstick.
