Standards Of Use - EMAK K 2400 ADV V-TWIN Operators Instruction Book

10 GB
- from 5 to 35 °C = SAE 30
- from -15 to + 5 °C = 5W-30 or 10W-30(Multi-
viscosity)
- from -25 to + 35 °C = Synthetic oils 5W-30or
10W-30 (Multi-viscosity)
c) The use of multi-viscosit y oils in hot
temperatures will result in higher than normal
oil consumption; therefore, check oil level
more frequently.
d) Do not mix oils of different brands and
features.
e) SAE 30 oil, if used below 5°C, could result
impossible engine damage due to inadequate
lubrication.
f ) Oil should be at "MAX" mark do not overfill.
Overfilling with oil may cause:
- Smoking:
- Spark plug or air filter fouling, which will cause
hard starting.
4.4 AIR FILTER
The air filter must always be in perfect working
order, to prevent debris and dust from getting
sucked into the engine, reducing the efficiency
and life of the machine.
a) Always keep the filtering element free of debris
and in perfect working order.
b) If necessary, replace the filtering element with
an original spare part. Incompatible filtering
elements can impair the efficiency and life of
the engine.
c) Never start the engine without mounting the
filtering element properly.
4.5 SPARK PLUG
Not all the spark plugs for endothermic engines
are the same!
a) Use only spark plugs of the recommended
type, with the right heat range.
b) Check the length of the thread, because – if
too long – it will damage the engine beyond
repair.
c) Make sure that the electrodes are clean and
their gap is correct.

5. STANDARDS OF USE

5.1 BEFORE EVERY USE
Before every use, perform the following checking
procedures in order to assure a regular operation.
5.1.1 Check oil level
See the specific chapter (8.1) for the oil to be used.
a) Place engine level.
b) Clean around oil fill.
c) Unscrew the cap (A, Fig.2), clean the end of
the dipstick (B) and insert it without screwing
it down.
d) Remove the cap with the dipstick and check
the oil level that must be between the "MIN"
and "MAX" marks (B, Fig.3).
e) If oil is required, add oil of the same kind up to
the "MAX" mark, being careful not to spill any
outside the oil fill.
f ) spilled oil.
5.1.2 Check air cleaner
The efficiency of the air filter is fundamental
for the engine to work properly. Do not start
the engine if the filtering element is missing or
broken.
a) Clean around the filter cover.
b) Remove the cover (A, Fig.4) by unscrewing the
two knobs (B).
c) Check the condition of the filtering element
(C). It must be intact, clean and in perfect
work ing order; if not, either carr y out
maintenance or replace it.
d) Put the cover (A) back.
5.1.3 Adding fuel
IMPORTANT: Do not drip petrol onto the plastic
parts of the motor or the machine to prevent
damaging them and remove all traces of spilt petrol
immediately. The warranty does not cover damage
to plastic parts caused by petrol.
See "Technical Data" chapter (8.1) for the fuel
characteristics.
Refuelling must be made when the engine is
cold, following the instructions contained in the
machine's Instructions Manual.
5.1.4 Spark plug cap
Firmly connect the cable cap to the spark plug,
making sure that there are no traces of dirt inside
the cap and on the spark plug terminal.
