NOTE:______________________________________________________________________
Pre-operation checks should be made each time the machine is used. Such an inspection can
be thoroughly accomplished in a very short time; and the added safety it assures is more than
worth the time involved.
A WARNING
If any item in the PRE-OPERATION CHECK is not working properly, have it inspected
and repaired before operating the machine.
BRAKE (FRONT AND REAR)
Check for correct play in the brake lever and
pedal and make sure they are working proper­
ly. Check the brakes at tow speed shortly after
starting out. If the play is correct, make an
adjustment.
WHEEL
Check the wheel runout and damage, and
check the tightness of spokes.
TIRES
Check the tire pressure and check the tires for
wear.
THROTTLE GRIP
Turn the throttle grip to see that it operates pro­
perly and that the play is normal. Make certain
the throttle springs are closed when released.
"ENGINE STOP" SWITCH
Start the engine and make sure the "ENGINE
STOP" switch functions properly.
FITTINGS/FASTENERS
Always check the tightness of chassis fittings
and fasteners before a ride. Use the chart on
page 46, 47 and 49 to find the correct torque.
Front 100 kPa (1.0 kgf/cm^ 15 psi)
Rear 100 kPa (1.0 kgf/cm', 15 psi)
