5. Install the engine oil drain bolt and its new gasket, and then
tighten the bolt to the specified torque.

oil.

NOTICE
● In order to prevent clutch slippage (since the engine oil
also lubricates the clutch), do not mix any chemical
additives. Do not use oils with a diesel specification of
“CD” or oils of a higher quality than specified. In addition,
do not use oils labeled “ENERGY CONSERVING II” or
higher.
● Make sure that no foreign material enters the crankcase.
7. Start the engine, and then let it idle for several minutes
while checking it for oil leakage. If oil is leaking, immediately
turn the engine off and check for the cause.
8. Turn the engine off, wait at least ten minutes, and then check
the oil level and correct it if necessary.
Cleaning the air filter element
The air filter element should be cleaned at the intervals
specified in the periodic maintenance and lubrication chart.
Clean or, if necessary, replace the air filter element more
frequently if you are riding in unusually wet or dusty areas.
