Before you have ago at someone check your facts, Jialing was referring to 10W40 gear oil, you can buy it especially for scooters. _________________

About what pressure are you telling us? The hole for oil is the meter of it. Don't use ml, fill the gearbox untill the ois leeks over, and you'll be happy! |

Maybe you had better go back to school and learn to read and write in English so that people can understand the point your trying to make.
I get the impression from your first post that you are trying to contradict
what Enu stated to fill the gearbox with just suffiecient oil so that it just runs out of the filler. Whats your point?
Your second post makes me wonder it your a 12-13 year old kid who has not yet learnt his english or that you even know what your talking about yourself.
get a traslator and write in your own language then traslate it into english if you find english so hard. When we can understand you we can respond.
There are people on this forum with years and years of experience with scooters some are experts at this as you can see by their posts if you think your as good as some of these guys, I challenge you to write something about scoots everyone would be interested in. |

|
|
As I'm new to the Club I've been reading some very usefull info. With regard to Transmission Fluid v. Gear Oil I used to race gear driven Karts and to get about 0.005 secs. per lap used tranny fluid. However I stripped the engines and gearboxes every week just to check and tune. If you want to do that with your scoot that's fine. Me, I prefer an easy life so will always use OIL  _________________ I have a Baotian 125 T-9, a Kawasaki ZZR1100, a Yamaha Wild Star 1600, various cars, trucks and a motorhome. |

First you need to locate the Lower drain bolt and the Upper fill bolt. These are easy to locate as noted in the picture.
Start by removing the lower bolt with an 11mm box end wrench. It is best to have the oil warm (not hot) before you drain
Use a container to catch the waist oil. It's a good idea to use gloves, gear oil is smelly unlike motor oil
Remove the upper bolt to allow the gear casing to drain completely.
I collected the waste gear oil so I could measure how much oil it took. If I could understand the re-fill quantity in the manual I would not have needed to measure the drain oil, but I had no idea how much the gear case held
After I figured out how much old oil drained out, I filled a clean container with the same amount of synthetic 90 weight gear oil.
Securely replace the bottom bolt after all the old oil has drained out.
Here's where you need to get creative. I found a small plastic tube that I bent to fit into the upper drain bolt opening. A short piece of small hose would also work. I tried using just the turkey baster, but oil leaked all over the place.
After you rig up a small hose or plastic tube that was inserted into the fill hole as I did, draw the oil with a 99 cent turkey baster so you can squirt it into the gear case.
Squeeze the oil in slowly so it doesn't spill.
I believe the full mark is even with the bolt threads so I let a little oil run out of the gear case.
When you replace the lower & upper bolts be certain the washer is in place.

I got a MAC so it must just be me then. I get the text, but the pics are not loading. Maybe it's Firefox.
I'll try Safari......
Nope! Still not there.  |

110 ml's I believe. But a good way to do it is just fill it up to the level of the fill hole.  |

The fill hole is the level hole as well. Put a bit too much in, let it drip and when it stops its at the right level. _________________
