Run the engine for three minutes, then stop the
engine and allow the oil to settle in the tank for
a further two minutes. Recheck the oil level and
top up as required. Finally, refit the side panel
(where applicable).

A coarse mesh metal filter is incorporated with
the oil feed pipe fixing bolt. This should be
cleaned at 2,500 miles intervals and when the oil
is changed.

GEAR BOX OIL LEVEL
|
|
|
|
An oil level plug is fitted in the gearbox cover
(see Fig. K5).
|
|
|
|
To check level, remove plug (see Fig. K5, item
B) whereupon oil should seep gently out if level is
correct. If topping up is necessary, remove the
filler cap (see Fig. K5, item C) and replenish with
correct grade of oil until the oil begins to seep
from the level plug orifice. Replace the filler cap
and the level plug.

GEARBOX OIL CHANGING
|
|
|
|
The gearbox oil should be changed after a run so
that the warm oil flows more freely (see Fig. K5).
Remove the filler cap and drain plug (A) and drain
the oil into a suitable container. Replace the
drain plug and fill the gearbox through the filler
cap orifice (C). Allow time for oil to pass through
the inner cover into the shell. When the level plug
is removed and oil runs from the level plug hole
(B). Allow the surplus oil to drain off and replace
the level plug and filler cap. If this method is
not followed a false level indication will be
gained.

PRIMARY CHAINCASE LEVEL
|
|
|
|
An oil level plug is fitted in the primary
chaincase outer cover. (See Fig. K6). To check
level, remove plug (see Fig. K6, item B) whereupon
oil should seep gently out if correct. If topping
up is necessary, remove the filler cap (see Fig.
K6, item C) and replenish with correct grade of oil
until the oil begins to seep from the level plug
orifice. Replace the filler cap and the level plug.

Note: under no circumstances allow more than
7fl. oz. (200 cc) of oil in primary case.
