Pre-Start Inspection and Operation
NOTE:
Extremely dusty or dirty working conditions may require more frequent checking,
filling and/or changing of engine oil.
• After filling the oil, wait a few minutes and check the oil level again.
Make sure to securely reinstall the dipstick into the dipstick tube before starting the engine.
Check engine fuel and fill as needed - be sure engine is OFF
3. The Boxer has two saddle fuel tanks (Item 1, Figure 3–3 ). Each of the tanks has a fuel gauge
located in the filler cap (Item 2, Figure 3–3 ). Remove cap and visually inspect fuel level to
make sure that the indicator is showing the proper fuel level. Make sure that each tank has
been filled on a daily basis.
Figure 3–3 Fuel Level Check
• Carefully pour the fuel into the tank, not exceeding the max fill on the fuel gauges.
• Allow engine to cool before filling fuel tanks.
• Do not overfill because fuel could spill onto hot engine parts and ignite or explode.
