its new gasket, and then tighten

the bolt to the specified torque.

NOTICE

ECA11620

● In order to prevent clutch slip-

page (since the engine oil also

lubricates the clutch), do not

mix any chemical additives. Do

not use oils with a diesel speci-

fication of “CD” or oils of a high-

er quality than specified. In

addition, do not use oils labeled

“ENERGY CONSERVING II” or

higher.

● Make sure that no foreign mate-

rial enters the crankcase.

10. Start the engine, and then let it idle

for several minutes while checking

it for oil leakage. If oil is leaking, im-

mediately turn the engine off and

check for the cause.

TIP

After the engine is started, the engine

oil level warning light should go off if the

oil level is sufficient.

NOTICE

ECA10401

If the oil level warning light flickers

or remains on even if the oil level is

correct, immediately turn the engine

off and have a Yamaha dealer check

the vehicle.

11. Turn the engine off, wait a few min-

utes until the oil settles, and then

check the oil level and correct it if

necessary.

12. Install the cowlings.
