level found on the dipstick should be between "L"
(Low) and "F" (Full) line. If the oil level is below the "L"
line, add fresh oil from the filler hole until the oil level
reaches to "F" line.If the level is above the "F" line,

NOTE:
Use a premium quality 4-stroke motor oil to
ensure longer service life of the vehicle. Use
only oils which are rated SF or SG under the
API service classification. The recommended
viscosity is SAE 10W-40. If an SAE 10W-40
motor oil is not available, select alternative
according to the left chart. If the vehicle is
used in very cold weather (below –15°C (5°F)),
use SAE 5W-30 for good engine starting and
smooth operation.
