VESPA 150, Service Station Manual, Page: 43 / 249

In all four stroke engines, the deterioration of the oil characteristics, or a certain consumption should
be considered normal, especially if during the run-in period. Consumption levels in particular can be
influenced by the conditions of use (e.g.: oil consumption increases when driving at "full throttle".
Replacement
Change oil and replace filter as indicated in the
scheduled maintenance table. The engine must be
emptied by draining off the oil through the drainage
plug of the mesh pre-filter, flywheel side; further-
more to facilitate oil drainage, loosen or remove
the cap/dipstick. Once all the oil has drained
through the drainage hole, unscrew the oil car-
tridge filter and remove it.
Make sure the pre-filter and drainage plug O-rings
are in good conditions.
Lubricate them and refit the mesh filter and the oil
drainage plug, screwing them up to the prescribed
torque.
Refit the new cartridge filter being careful to lubri-
cate the O-ring before fitting it.
Change the engine oil.
Since a certain quantity of oil still remains in the
circuit, oil must be filled from oil dipstick/cover.
Then start up the vehicle, leave it running for a few
minutes and switch it off: After about five minutes,
check the level and, if necessary, top-up but never
exceeding the MAX level reference mark. The car-
tridge filter must be replaced every time the oil is
changed. Use new oil of the recommended type
for topping up and changing purposes.
N.B.
THE ENGINE MUST BE HOT WHEN THE OIL IS CHANGED.
