2.4 Oil
Important
• The engine may be damaged if operated with improper oil level.
• Do not exceed the MAX level because a sudden increase in engine rpm could be caused by its
combustion.
• Use only the recommended oil to ensure adequate protection, efficiency and service life of the
engine.
• The use of lubricants other than recommended may shorten the engine life.
• Viscosity must be appropriate to the ambient temperature to which the engine is to be exposed.
Danger
• Prolonged skin contact with the exhausted engine oil can cause cancer of the skin.
• If contact with oil cannot be avoided, thoroughly wash your hands with soap and water as soon as
possible.
• For the exhausted oil disposal, refer to the Par. DISPOSAL and SCRAPPING .
2.4.1 SAE oil classification
• In the SAE classification, oils are identified according to viscosity without considering any other
qualitative characteristic.
• The code is composed of two numbers, which indicate, and must correspond to, the ambient
temperature in which the engine operates, the first number refers to the viscosity when cold, for use
during winter (" W "), while the second number is for viscosity at high temperatures.

• Low S.A.P.S. technology (oil with low Sulfated Ash, Phosphorus, Sulfur content) keeps catalyst in
good working conditions. The presence of sulfated ash, phosphorus and sulfur causes with time
the catalyst clogging and its consequent inefficiency.
