ENGINE OIL
IMPORTANT: Always read and follow the engine manufacturer’s instructions on all matters relat-
ing to use and maintenance. Observe the oil change intervals as this will greatly enhance the service
life of your engine.
The engine oil should be changed after the first 5 hours of operation.
- Start the engine and allow it to idle until warm. This will usually take about 5 minutes.
- Switch off the engine and raise the engine cover. Clean around the oil filler cap and remove.
- Locate the oil drain plug on the right hand side of the engine. It is clearly identified with a yellow cap
which is fitted to the drain adaptor.
- The drain adaptor has been designed to facilitate draining of the oil.
- Remove the yellow cap.
- Fit a short length of hose to the drain adaptor nozzle and route it into an appropriate container of approx-
imately 2 litres.
- Push the adaptor in, rotate it anti-clockwise and release to start the oil flowing.
- When the oil has completely finished draining from the engine shut off the adaptor by pushing in and
rotating clockwise.
- Remove the length of tubing and replace the yellow cap.
- Refill the engine with the recommended grade of oil (SAE 30 engine oil classified for service - SF mini-
mum) until full.
IMPORTANT: - Do not overfill.
- The use of non-recommended lubricants may lead to excessive wear and dam-
age which will not be covered by the warranty.
If there is evidence that the engine is overheating or that oil consumption is excessive - contact your dealer.
OIL FILTER
The oil filter is located on the left hand side of the engine and should be renewed every 100 hours of
operation or annually, which ever is sooner.
