2.7 Oil change
Engine oil quality is the main factor, affecting engine
service life. Change the engine oil as specified in the
maintenance schedule (refer to 2.1 section).
when running in very dusty conditions, oil changes should
be performed more frequently than specified in the
maintenance schedule.
Please dispose the used engine oil in conditions that
doesn’t contaminate the environment, we suggest you
take it in a sealed container to your local recycling center
or service station for reclamation. Please do not throw it
in the trash or pour it on the ground or down a drain.
Prolonged used oil exposure on the skin can lead to skin
cancer. Although this is unlikely, unless you handle used
oil at daily, is still advisable to wash your hands with soap
and water as soon as possible after handling used oil.
Changing the oil filter requires a torque wrench. If you do
not have it or the necessary skill to do the task, we
recommend you visit your UM dealer to perform this
service.
Change the engine oil with the engine at normal
operating temperature and the vehicle stand on its side
stand to assure complete and fast draining.
