Transmission oil
Make sure the transmission oil is at the specified
level. Add oil as necessary. (See pages 8-17 ~
8-23.)
cC
Be sure to use motor oils that do not contain
anti-friction modifiers. Passenger car motor
oils (often labeled “Energy Conserving”) con-
tain anti-friction additives which will cause
clutch and/or starter clutch slippage, result-
ing in reduced component life and poor
engine performance.
Recommended oil:
SAE 10W30
Recommended oil classification:
API Service SE, SF, SG type or higher
Oil quantity:
Total amount:
1.7 L
Periodic oil change:
1.5 L

Shifting
This model has a 6-speed forward transmission.
The transmission allows you to control the
amount of power you have available at a given
speed or for starting, accelerating, climbing hills,
etc. To shift into neutral, return the throttle lever
to its original position, apply the clutch and
repeatedly depress the shift pedal until it stops.
When it stops, it will be in first gear. Raise the
pedal slightly to neutral.

cC
1. Do not coast for long periods with the
engine off, and do not tow the machine a
long distance. Even in neutral position,
the transmission is only properly lubri-
cated when the engine is running. Inade-
quate lubrication may cause damage.
2. Always use the clutch when changing
gears. The engine, transmission and
drive train are not designed to withstand
the shock of forced shifting and can be
damaged by shifting without the clutch.
