MAINTENANCE
Engine Oil
Always check and change the oil at the intervals outlined in the Periodic
Maintenance Chart beginning on page 60. Always use the recommended
engine oil.
Oil Check
The oil dipstick and fill tube is
located on the engine.
1. Position the vehicle on a level
surface.
2. Apply the brakes. Start the
engine and allow it to idle for
20-30 seconds. Stop the engine.
3. Lift the lever lock to remove the
dipstick. Wipe it dry with a clean
cloth.
4. Reinstall the dipstick completely,
but do not lock it. The dipstick
must be screwed completely in
to keep the angle and depth of
the stick consistent.
5. Remove the dipstick and check
the oil level. Maintain the oil
level in the safe range. Do not
overfill.
NOTE:
Due to the dipstick entry angle
into the crankcase, the oil level
will read higher on the bottom
side of the dipstick. Always
read the level on the upper sur-
face of the dipstick.
6. After reinstalling the dipstick, be
sure to seat the lever lock.
