Engine Oil
Engine Oil is a key factor in deciding the Engine’s performance. Do not use
Engine Oils with additives or 2-stroke Engine Oil because they will not provide
enough lubrication and may shorten the Engines service life.
Engine Oil capacity: 0.6L / 20 oz.
Engine Oil recommended: SAE10W-30, SAE30
As viscosity varies with regions and temperatures, SJ class Oil is recommended
(Figure 2).
Checking the Oil level:
1) Remove the dipstick (Figure 3) and clean it with a rag.
2) Reinsert the dipstick into the Oil Fill hole. Remove the dipstick and check
Oil level (Figure 3).
3) If the Oil level is low, add the recommended Engine Oil up to the full level
on the dipstick.
4) Reinstall the dipstick when the correct Oil level is reached.
Engine Oil change:
Note: We Recommend using a small Engine Oil extractor to extract the used Engine
Oil. Always drain the Engine Oil when the Engine is warm so it will flow more
rapidly and completely.
1) Remove the Oil Dipstick (Figure 3)
2) Extract the Oil following the Extractor Instructions.
3) Fill With the recommended Engine Oil and check Oil level with dipstick
(Figure 4).
4) When finished, reinstall the Oil dipstick and tighten it securely

• Used engine oil may cause skin cancer if repeatedly left in contact with
the skin for prolonged periods. It is advisable to thoroughly wash your
hands with soap and water as soon as possible after handling used oil.
Please dispose of used engine oil in a manner that is compatible with the
environment.
• The engine must be level before checking the oil to get an accurate
reading on the dipstick

• Prevent any debris from entering the engine when the air cleaner is
