Engine oilis used in 4-stroke engines in order to lubricate the timing gears, the benchsupports and the thermal group.
An insufficient quantity of oil can cause seriousdamage to the engine itself.
In all 4Tengines, the decay of the oil characteristics, as well as a certain level ofconsumption, should be considered
normal, especially during running in.Consumption can particularly reflect the conditions of use (e.g.: when drivingat full
acceleration all the time, oil consumption increases).
1) Rest the vehicle on a flat ground.
2) Unscrew the cap/bar (
A ),
dry it with a clean cloth and reinsert it,
screwing it thoroughly
.
3) Remove the cap/bar again and check that thelevel is between the max and min levels; top up, if required.
The MAX level reference means that in the enginethere is an oil quantity of about 1700 cc.
If the check is carried out after the vehiclehas been used, and therefore with a hot engine, the level line will be lower;in
order to carry out a correct check it is necessary to wait at least 10minutes after the engine has been stopped, so as
to get the correct level.
Oiltop up
The oil should be topped up after having checkedthe level and in any case by adding oil withoutever exceeding the
MAX level
.
Restoring the level between
MIN
and
MAX
requires a quantity of oil of ~
400 cc
.
Level check
This operation should be carried out on
cold engine, according to the following
procedure:
Indicator light (oil pressure low)
The vehicle is equipped with a warning light on
the instrument panel that lights up when the
key is turned to the
( ON
) position.
However, this light should switch off once the
engine has been started.
If the light turns on during braking, at
idling speed or while turning a corner,
it is necessary to check the oil level
and the lubrication system.
