In this video tutorial, you will see step-by-step instructions for performing the service, which includes changing the engine oil and oil filter, on the 2017 Yamaha Tmax 500 SX scooter. First, position the scooter on the centre stand and start by removing the oil drain bolt located under the engine, using a socket spanner; allow the oil to drain into a container for about ten minutes. At this point, use the oil filter wrench to unscrew it, as shown in the video; replace it with a new one, tightening it by hand; then pour in the new engine oil!
