Oil Level Check; Oil Change - Honda GXV50 Owner's Manual

Oil Level Check

Check the engine oil level with the engine stopped and in a level
position.
1. Remove the oil filler cap/dipstick and wipe it clean.
2. Insert the oil filler cap/dipstick into the oil filler neck as shown,
but do not screw it in, then remove it to check the oil level.
3. If the oil level is near or below the lower limit mark on the
dipstick, fill with the recommended oil (see page 7 ) to the upper
limit mark.
4. Reinstall the oil filler cap/dipstick and tighten securely.
Running the engine with a low oil level can cause engine damage.

Oil Change

Drain the used oil when the engine is warm. Warm oil drains
quickly and completely.
1. Place a suitable container below the engine to catch the used oil,
then remove the oil filler cap/dipstick, oil drain plug and washer.
2. Allow the used oil to drain completely, then reinstall the oil drain
plug and new washer, and tighten the oil drain plug securely.
Please dispose of used motor oil in a manner that is compatible
with the environment. We suggest you take used oil in a sealed
container to your local recycling center or service station for
reclamation. Do not throw it in the trash, pour it on the ground,
or pour it down a drain.
