Replacing the oil filter
Remove screw 1 and place a container under the engine to col-
lect the drained oil. Remove the four screws 2 and take off the
two oil filter covers.
ENVIRONMENT: Dispose of spent oils in compliance
with applicable laws.
Using a pair of Seeger ring pliers, pull out the two filter elements
3 from the crankcase.
Clean the oil filter covers, the O-ring sealing surfaces and the
crankcase. Check the O-rings and the oil filter covers for dam-
age and replace as necessary.
Turn the vehicle upside down and half fill the two oil filter cas-
ings with engine oil.
Fit the long filter unit in the front and the short filter unit in the
back of the crankcase.
Grease the oil filter cover O-rings and fit covers 4.
Fit screws 2 and tighten them to 6 N·m.
Tighten screw 1 to 8 N·m.
Lift up the vehicle.
Remove screw fastening 5 from the clutch cover and pour in
1.25 litres of the recommended engine oil (see table in Chapter
3).
WARNING: Before actually starting the engine, actuate
the kickstart several times to allow the oil to spread
throughout the system.
Subsequently start the engine and check all screw fastenings
and oil filter covers for signs of leakage. Finally check the engine
oil level and top up as necessary.
