Model: Yamaha X Max
Part: Engine oil

To change the engine oil of a Yamaha X-Max, make sure the engine is cold. Lift the bike on a central or side stand for better stability. Locate the oil drain plug, usually located on the bottom side of the engine. Place a container under the drain plug to collect the used oil. Unscrew the drain plug and let the used oil drain completely. Once the oil has been fully drained, screw the drain plug back in. Locate the oil fill cap on the engine and unscrew it. Use a funnel to pour the new oil into the engine, following the owner's manual specifications for type and quantity of oil. Once the oil has been added, securely screw the fill cap back in. Make sure to clean any oil residue from the bike.
