use and maintenance Scarabeo 500
54
CAUTION
Ensure that the vehicle is supported
safely.
◆ Rock the front fork back and forth in the
direction of travel.
CAUTION
While rocking the fork, watch for
looseness in the stand. Repeat several
times.
◆ If there is too much play, have the
vehicle serviced at an aprilia Official
Dealer.
STEERING DAMPER
Read page 41 (MAINTENANCE)
carefully.
The steering damper can be adjusted in
order to achieve the correct setting when
carrying the full load (rider + passenger +
luggage).
Adjust as follows:
◆ Rotate the ring nut (1) clockwise for a
harder damping.
CAUTION
Tightening the ring nut gives a stiffer
setting. As a result, the effort required
to rotate the handlebar will be greater
and handling will be harder.
CHECKING ENGINE PIVOT SHAFT
Read page 41 (MAINTENANCE)
carefully.
Check for play in the engine pivot shaft
bushes at regular intervals.
Check as follows:
◆ Place the vehicle on the centre stand.
◆ Rock the wheel from side to side.
◆ If you feel any play, have the vehicle
serviced at an aprilia Official Dealer.
