Draining Oil - Husqvarna TC 250 2010 Workshop Manual

Draining oil

WARNING
This procedure can only be done with the fork removed.
It is good practice to slightly slacken the cap nut before removing the fork
leg from the yokes.
Follow the motorcycle manufacturer's instructions to remove the fork leg from
the yokes.
Clamp the fork leg (11) in a vice.
Fully unscrew the cap nut (1) from the inner tube using a 4 mm pin wrench.
Slowly push down the outer tube (11) over the inner tube.
Take the fork leg (11) out of the vice and tilt it into a pan with suitable capacity
to drain oil; pump the fork repeatedly to help all oil drain out.
Look at the appearance, thickness and quality of drained oil to assess
the condition of seals and pilots; a thick, dark oil with solid matter floating
in it indicates that pilot bushes and seals need replacing.
