MAINTENANCE & CARE
AIR CLEANER
• Accumulated dust in the air cleaner will reduce en-
gine efficiency, increase fuel consumption and allow
abrasive particles to pass into the engine. Remove
the air cleaner as often as necessary to maintain it
in a clean condition.
• Light surface dust can easily be removed by tapping
the filter. Heavy deposits should be washed out us-
ing a suitable solvent.
• Remove the cleaner cover by loosening the air
cleaner cover knob.
FUEL FILTER
NOTE – ADJUSTING CARBURETTOR
Do not adjust the carburettor unless it is necessary.
If you have trouble with the carburettor contact your
dealer. Improper adjustment may cause damage the
engine and void the warranty.
FUEL FILTER
• Fuel tank is fitted with a filter. The filter is situated at
the free end of the fuel pipe and can be picked out
through the fuel port with a piece of hooked wire or
the like.
• Check the fuel filter periodically. Do not allow dust
to enter the fuel tank. A clogged filter will cause diffi-
culties to start the engine or abnormalities in engine
performance.
• When the filter is dirty replace it.
• When the inside of the fuel tank is dirty, it can be
cleaned by flushing the tank with petrol.
CHECK SPARK PLUG
O.6-0.7mm(0.023"-O.028")
Do not attempt to remove the plug from a hot engine to
avoid possible damage to the threads.
• Clean or replace the spark plug if it is fouled with
heavy oily deposits.
• Replace the spark plug if the centre electrode is
worn-out (rounded at the tip).
• Spark gap : 0.6 – 0.7mm (.023" – .028")
• Fastening torque : 145 – 155kg/cm (125 – 135in/lb)
