Checking And Changing The Engine Oil - Wolf Blaze User Manual

Common Faults and Troubleshooting
Check and Replacement of Lubricating Oil
With the vehicle on the center kick stand,
unscrew the oil dipstick and wipe clean
with a rag. Insert the dipstick, pull out,
and check the level and color of the oil.
The oil level should always be between
the upper and lower oil level markings on
the dipstick.
Following the service intervals in this
manual, drain and replace the oil as
necessary. The 17mm bolt on the bottom
of the engine needs to be removed to
drain the oil. Be sure to clean the mesh
filter screen before reinstallation.
After the engine has drained completely,
reinstall the mesh screen into the spring.
Place the spring into the drain plug and
reattach to the engine. Refill the engine
with oil.

Caution
Checking and Replacing Engine Oil
To ensure an accurate reading when checking the engine oil, place the vehicle on the
center main stand. Only check the oil level after the engine has been shut off for at
least 5 minutes. Be aware the engine, exhaust and engine oil will be extremely hot if
the engine has been running. It is recommended you allow the engine to cool for at
least 30 minutes after a long drive before checking.
-Remove oil cap. Note if there is oil on the dipstick. A lack of oil on the dipstick
indicates a low oil level.
-Wipe the dipstick clean and insert into engine. Quickly withdraw the dipstick and
note the oil level. If there is no oil on the dipstick, oil will need to be added.
-Note the color of the oil. Very black oil indicates the oil must be drained and replaced.
-To drain the engine oil, loosen the 17mm oil drain plug on the bottom right hand side
of the engine, directly underneath the black engine shroud.
-Allow oil to drain completely. Not allowing all the oil to drain will result in residual oil
left in the crankcase which will alter the amount needed to fill the engine.
-Inspect oil filter and clean if necessary.
-Reattach oil drain plug with spring and filter installed.
-Fill with ~750mL (25 oz.) of 15W-40 (or 5W-40 if synthetic) engine oil through the oil
dipstick opening.
-Insert dipstick and withdraw to verify correct oil level.
-Tighten dipstick and inspect for leaks
