5. Tiaki
Mā te tiaki auau ka tino pai te mahi me te roa o te ora o tō mīhini whakaputa hiko.
5.1 Huri Hinu Mihini
Change the engine oil after the first 5 hours of operation, and then every 100 hours or annually thereafter.
- Ensure the engine is warm but not hot.
- Place a drain pan under the oil drain tube.
