Oil Change

Drain the used oil while the engine is warm. Warm oil drains quickly
and completely.
1. Place a suitable container below the reduction case to catch the
used oil, then remove the oil filler cap/dipstick, drain plug and
washer.
2. Allow the used oil to drain completely, then reinstall the drain
plug and a new washer, and tighten the plug securely.
3. With the engine in a level position, fill with the recommended oil
(see page 8) to the upper limit mark on the dipstick. To check
the oil level, insert and remove the dipstick without screwing it
into the filler hole.
Reduction case oil capacity: 0.30 L (0.26 lmp qt)
Running the engine with a low reduction case oil level can
cause reduction case damage.
4. Screw in the oil filler cap/dipstick and tighten securely.

Wash your hands with soap and water after handling used oil.
Please dispose of used motor oil in a manner that is compatible
with the environment. We suggest you take it in a sealed
container to your local service station for reclamation. Do not
throw it in the trash, pour it on the ground, or pour it down a
drain.

AIR CLEANER

A dirty air cleaner will restrict air flow to the carburetor, reducing
engine performance. If you operate the engine in very dusty areas,
clean the air filter more often than specified in the MAINTENANCE
SCHEDULE (see page 7).
Operating the engine without an air filter, or with a damaged air
filter, will allow dirt to enter the engine, causing rapid engine wear.
This type of damage is not covered under the Warranty.

Inspection

Remove the air cleaner cover and inspect the filter elements.
Clean or replace dirty filter elements. Always replace damaged filter
elements. If equipped with an oil-bath air cleaner, also check the oil
level.
Refer to pages 10–11 for instructions that apply to the air cleaner
and filter for your engine type.

Cleaning

[Dual-Filter Element Type]
1. Remove the wing nut from
the air cleaner cover, and
remove the cover.
2. Remove the wing nut from
the air filter, and remove the
filter elements.
3. Remove the foam filter
element from the paper filter
element.
4. Inspect both filter elements,
and replace them if they are
damaged. Always replace the
paper filter element at the
scheduled interval (see page
7).
