by
the
following
conditions:
• Incorrect mounting of the engine
• Deterioration of the engine mounts
• Loose engine mounts
Any engine mount that shows deterioration should be
replaced. Refer to the OEM information for the

NOTICE
Perform this maintenance with the engine stopped.
Note:
Ensure that the engine is either level or that
the engine is in the normal operating position in order
to obtain a true level indication.
Note:
After the engine has been switched OFF, wait
for 10 minutes in order to allow the engine oil to drain
to the oil pan. Then, check the oil level.
1.
Maintain the oil level between the
“
ADD
”
mark (Y)
and the
“
FULL
”
mark (X) on the engine oil dipstick.
Or maintain the engine oil level between the H and
L mark. Do not over fill the crankcase.
NOTICE
Operating your engine when the oil level is above the
“
FULL
”
mark could cause your crankshaft to dip into
the oil. The air bubbles created from the crankshaft
dipping into the oil reduces the oil's lubricating char-
acteristics and could result in the loss of power.
2.
Remove the oil filler cap and add oil, if necessary.
Clean the oil filler cap. Install the oil filler cap.
