Place a receptacle underneath the engine to collect the drained oil. Remove
the 2 screws [1] and dismount the oil filter cover.
Using circlip pliers, pull the oil-filter insert [2] out of the housing.
Clean the oil filter cover, the sealing surface of the O-ring and the engine casing.
Check the O-ring of the oil filter covers for damage and, if necessary, replace
it.
Put the motorcycle on its side and fill the oil filter housing about halfway with
engine oil. Fill oil filter with oil, place the oil filter in the filter box.
Grease the O-ring [3] of the oil filter cover and mount the cover. Mount the
screws and tighten them to 6 Nm.
Return the motorcycle to an upright position.
Remove the oil plug [4] at the clutch cover and fill in 1.1 liters (250
SX-F) or 1.3 liters (450 SX-F) of fully synthetic engine oil (Motorex Power
Synt 4T 10W/50).
Start the engine and check all screwed connections and the oil filter cover
for leaks.
Finally, check the engine oil level and, if necessary, correct it.
