pan connected with the drain plug.

and the inserting plug to ease the downflow of the lubrica-
tion oil.

water and detergent.
Protect properly skin and eyes: operate according to
safety rules.
Dispose of the residual properly following the rules.
- After the complete drainage, screw the plug and carry out
the clean oil filling.
Use only the recommended oil or oil having the re-
! quested features for the corrrect motor functioning.
In case of topping up, don't mix oils having different
features.
If you don't comply with theses rules, the service war-
ranty is no more valid.
