Warning Light (Insufficient Oil Pressure) (03_02; Engine Oil Change - Gilera Runner 125 Manual

Warning light (insufficient oil pressure) (03_02)

The vehicle is equipped with a warning light "H" that lights up when the key is
turned to «ON». However, this light should come off once the engine has been star-
ted. If the light comes on while braking, at idle speed or while turning a corner,
it is necessary to check the oil level and top it up if required. If after having
topped-up the oil, the warning light still comes on while braking, at idle speed
or while turning a corner, it will be necessary to take your vehicle to an Author-
ised Service Centre.

Engine oil change (03_03, 03_04)

The engine oil and cartridge filter, «C», must be replaced after every 6,000 km by an
Authorised Piaggio 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. 600 ÷ 650 cm³ of oil through the cap «A». Then start up the scooter, leave
it running for a few minutes and switch it off: after about five minutes check the level
and if necessary top up without exceeding the MAX level.
03_03
The cartridge filter must be replaced every time the oil is changed. For top-ups and
changes, use new oil of the recommended type.
WARNING
RUNNING THE ENGINE WITH INSUFFICIENT LUBRICATION OR WITH INADE-
QUATE LUBRICANTS ACCELERATES THE WEAR AND TEAR OF THE MOVING
PARTS AND CAN CAUSE IRRETRIEVABLE DAMAGE.
