MAINTENANCE
Engine Oil
Change Engine Oil and Oil Filter
8. Make sure the new oil filter gasket is properly seated in the oil filter, and apply a thin film of clean engine oil to
the gasket. Screw the new filter on until the gasket contacts the filter mounting plate. Tighten the filter by hand
an additional 3/4 turn.
9. Fill the crankcase through the oil fill cap with 6 quarts (5.7 liters) of oil. We recommend the use of only
VICTORY Brand Semi-Synthetic 20W-40 Motor Oil or equivalent.
10. Reinstall the oil fill cap and then start and run the engine until it reaches normal operating temperature.
After an oil change, the low oil pressure indicator remains illuminated longer than usual before going
out. Revving the engine while the low oil pressure indicator is illuminated can damage the engine.
Caution
11. Stop the engine and make sure there are no leaks around the drain plug and oil filter. Check the oil level and
adjust if needed.
Notice Recycle used oil and oil filter in accordance with local regulations.
