2 Remove control linkage.
3 Remove oil pan lower part.
4 Remove oil dipstick guide tube.

6 Unscrew oil pan upper part.





7 Unscrew both mounting bolts for engine mounts (arrow).
8 Loosen both engine shock absorbers at the bottom.

10 Lift engine with hoist until the oil pan can be removed.

Installation
11 Before the installation, use grease to attach a new gasket to the oil pan.
12 Further installation takes place in the sequence vice versa to the removal





CAUTION! The rear mating surface of the oil pan must be lined up with the rear mating surface of the crankcase (arrows). If the oil pan is not lined up with the crankcase, this can lead to complaints of noise and vibration.
Ensure that oil dipstick guide tubes are neither swapped during assembly nor interchanged with those of cast-iron engines, as this would result in false oil level readings.
They can be distinguished by means of the drawing and table in the image below.
