engine.
3. Clean the oil filler cap (2) and around it in order not to
let in foreign matters. Remove the oil filler cap.
4. Remove the drain plug (3) slowly so that oil will not
splash on you. Discharge oil.

foreign matters, etc., contact our service office.

the filter wrench.
7. Clean dust and foreign matters from the filter
mounting surface.

further by approximately 3/4 turn with the filter wrench
after the gasket contacts with the seal surface.

becomes between the upper limit and lower limit of
the level gauge (1).

and check the level of engine oil 10 to 20 minutes
later. Refill the engine with engine oil up to the
