Engine oil

Replacement
The engine oil and cartridge filter, "C", must be re-
placed after the first km, and every 6.000 km there-
after, by an Authorised Piaggio Service Cen-
tre. The engine should be emptied by draining the
oil from the drainage cap "B" of the gauze filter on
the flywheel side. In order to facilitate the oil drain-
age, loosen the cap/dipstick. Since a certain quan-
tity of oil remains in the circuit still, the top-up
should be carried out with around 600 ÷ 650 cm³
of oil 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 car-
tridge filter must be replaced at every oil change.
For top up and change, use new oil of the recom-
mended type.
WARNING
RUNNING THE ENGINE WITH INSUFFICIENT
LUBRICATION OR WITH INADEQUATE LUBRI-
CANTS ACCELERATES THE WEAR AND TEAR
OF THE MOVING PARTS AND CAN CAUSE IR-
RETRIEVABLE DAMAGE.
