Basic Service on a KTM EXC F 500

Model: Ktm Exc F 500
Part: Engine oil

Video tutorial

As you may already know, changing the oil is easier when the engine and the circulating lubricant are warm. That said, be careful not to burn yourself.

You will need 1.2 litres of synthetic oil for engines 10W-50. Before unscrewing the bolt that acts as a plug for the drain hole, you must unscrew the screws of the only protective plastic cover located under the engine bay. Once removed, clear the drain hole as shown in the video, and while collecting the used oil in a container, unscrew and remove the two oil filters, then insert the new ones you have purchased.

Fill with new oil through the upper hole.
