Engine oil change (03_03)

Have oil changed and the cartridge filter «C» replaced as indicated in the scheduled
maintenance table at an Authorised Service Centre. The engine should be emptied
by draining the oil from the drainage plug «B » of the gauze filter on the flywheel side.
In order to facilitate the oil drainage, loosen the cap/dipstick. Since a certain quantity
of oil still remains in the circuit, filling must be done with approx. 950 ÷ 1000 cm³ of oil
through the cap «A. Then start up the engine, leave it running for a few minutes and
shut it off: after five minutes, check the level and if necessary, top-up without ex-
ceeding the MAX. level. The cartridge filter must be replaced at every oil change.
For top-ups and changes, use new oil of the recommended type.

EXCESSIVE OIL LEVEL AT TOP-UPS CAN LEAD TO SCALE FORMATION AND
