14. Transmission oil level
1. Check the level of the transmission oil by
looking through the air intake mesh. The oil
level should be between the “MIN” and “MAX”
marks on the oil reservoir at +20°C.
If it is necessary to top up the oil you must
remove the transmission cover first.
2. Unscrew the cap from the oil reservoir and top
up with SAE 10W/30 grade engine oil, class
SF–CC, until the oil level reaches the “MAX”
mark. Screw the cap back onto the oil reservoir
and refit the transmission cover.
