Maintenance
Lubricate them and refit the gauze filter and oil
drainage tap, screwing them up to the specified
torque.
Refit the new cartridge filter being careful to lubri-
cate the O-ring before fitting it.
Change the engine oil.
Since a certain quantity of oil still remains in the
circuit, oil must be filled from cap "A". Then start
up the scooter, leave it running for a few minutes
and switch it off: after five minutes check the level
and if necessary top up without exceeding the
MAX level. The cartridge filter must be replaced
every time the oil is changed. Use new oil of the
recommended type for topping up and changing
purposes.
N.B.
THE ENGINE MUST BE HOT WHEN THE OIL IS CHANGED.

Check
This operation must be carried out with the engine cold and following the procedure below:
1. Place the vehicle on its centre stand and on flat ground.
2. Undo cap/dipstick "A", dry it off with a clean cloth and replace it, screwing down completely.
3. Remove the cap/dipstick again and check that the level is between the min and max. marks; top
up if necessary.
The MAX level mark indicates a quantity of around 1100 cc of oil in the engine. If the check is carried
out after the vehicle has been used, and therefore with a hot engine, the level line will be lower; in order
to carry out a correct check it is necessary to wait at least 10 minutes after the engine has been stopped,
so as to get the correct level.
