In this video, we will see how to change the motor oil on a scooter: in general, the method is the same on almost all models, with few variations. The oil must be warm during the work, so that it is easier to drain it: it is also necessary to unscrew the dipstick. Take the tray where to drain the used oil - which will then be disposed of at an authorized center - clean the plug screw well and reassemble it before any contaminants enter the oil pan. Now we drain the oil from the mesh filter, being careful of the spring contained in it, and then clean it well before closing the plug carefully. We then have another filter, closed by three bolts, which we unscrew; clean the oil with a piece of paper and then replace the filter, check the integrity of the o-ring and close the plug carefully paying attention to the spring. Now it's time to refill with new oil, according to the manufacturer's specifications, loading 80% of the quantity, and then performing a check. While the engine is running, check for any leaks.
