5. CHECKING AND CHANGING OILS

Engine oil

Checking
Pull out the dipstick, clean the tip of dipstick, put it back into
the engine, and pull it out again to see if the oil level is
between the upper and lower limit. If the oil level is below the
lower limit, add oil.
Change Oil
Drain the oil by removing the plug under the engine. Put new
oil through the engine oil filler hole. Change the oil
periodically, and select the right type of oil depending on the
temperature and usage.
Do not dispose of waste oil in water or in sewage system but take
appropriate measures, such as contacting a waste oil disposal
specialist.
Check the oil lever before the
engine is started or after the engine
is cooled down.
Drain the oil when oil is warm but
be careful! If oil is hot, there is a
risk of getting burnt.
