How do you replace the oil in the rear hub of the Piaggio Ciao?

Model: Piaggio Ciao
Part: Checks and maintenance

Video tutorial

To replace the oil in the rear hub of the Piaggio Ciao, you need to loosen the screws that secure the rear wheel of the vehicle to its housing. To do this, it will be necessary to loosen the screws of the cover that protects the chain, which will also need to be removed.

After removing the chain, you can detach the wheel so that you can unscrew the hub cap: the oil inside must be expelled by tilting the hub itself. Now it will be possible to use a small tube to insert the required amount of oil into the hub.
