ENGINE OIL
PAY ATTENTION TO THE FOLLOWING!
The gear oil is:
- harmful by inhalation, if swallowed or in
contact with skin, with possible serious conse-
quences;
- irritating to skin;
- harmful for the environment.
To be avoided:
- contact with skin;
- inhalation of vapours;
- ingestion;
- release to the environment;
- exposure to air.
If swallowed do NOT induce vomiting but seek
medical advice immediately (fi rst aid post), indi-
cating the cause and how the accident occurred.
After contact with skin, wash the affected part im-
mediately with soap and water, repeating the oper-
ation until there are no more residues.
!
In case of contact with eyes or ears, rinse the affect-
ed parts immediately with plenty of water and seek
medical advice immediately (fi rst aid post), indi-
cating the cause and how the accident occurred.
After contact with clothes, remove contaminated
articles and wash immediately with plenty of wa-
ter and soap. Substitute the contaminated clothes,
which must be cleaned appropriately as soon as
possible.
If gear oil is accidentally spilt on the fl oor or in oth-
er areas, clean the contaminated area. Always wear
latex gloves to protect hands when carrying out
maintenance. Always close the gear oil cap proper-
ly after every topping up.
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN. DISPOSE
OF THE OIL AT A SPECIAL WASTE COLLECTION
POINT.
The used gear oil must be put in a sealed contain-
er and taken to the nearest service station or to a
waste oil collection point where it will be disposed
of correctly.
CHECKING THE GEAR OIL LEVEL
The vehicle must be placed on fi rm and level
ground so that measurements are correct. The lev-
el must be controlled with the engine cold. If the
vehicle has just been used, it is advisable to wait at
least ten minutes for the engine to cool so that the
oil circulating in the crankcase settles and cools.
It is advisable to wear a pair of gloves for this op-
eration. Place the motorcycle upright with both
wheels resting on the ground.
NOTE: do not check the oil level with the motorcy-
cle resting on its stand.
Remove the control screw (1) located in the right-
hand part of the crankcase; the oil level is correct
when it does not exceed the bottom lip of the hole.
