To change the oil and oil filter:
• Warm up the engine thoroughly,
and then stop the engine and se-
cure the motorcycle in an upright
position on level ground.
• Place an oil drain pan beneath the
engine.
• Remove the oil drain plug.
• Unscrew and remove the oil filter
using Triumph service tool
T3880313. Dispose of the old filter
in an environmentally friendly way.
• Apply a thin smear of clean engine
oil to the sealing ring of the new oil
filter. Fit the oil filter and tighten to
10 Nm.
• Incorporating a new washer, refit
the oil drain plug and tighten to
25 Nm.
• Fill the engine with a 10W/40 or
10W/50 semi or fully synthetic mo-
torcycle engine oil that meets
specification API SH (or higher) and
JASO MA, such as Castrol Power 1
Racing 4T 10W-40 (fully synthetic)
engine oil, sold as Castrol Power RS
Racing 4T 10W-40 (fully synthetic)
in some countries.
• Start the engine and allow it to idle
for a minimum of 30 seconds.
Caution
Raising the engine speed above idle
before the oil reaches all parts of the
engine can cause engine damage or
seizure. Only raise engine speed after
running the engine for 30 seconds to
allow the oil to circulate fully.
Caution
If the engine oil pressure is too low, the
low oil pressure warning light will illu-
minate. If this light stays on when the
engine is running, stop the engine im-
mediately and investigate the cause.
Running the engine with low oil pres-
sure will cause engine damage.
• Make sure that the low oil pressure
warning light extinguishes shortly
after starting.
• Turn off the ignition, check the oil
level using the method previously
described, and top up to between
the minimum and maximum level
lines on the dipstick.
Disposal of Used Engine Oil and Oil
Filters
To protect the environment, do not pour
oil on the ground, down sewers or
drains, or into watercourses. Do not
place used oil filters in with general
waste. If in doubt, contact your local au-
thority.
