TAKING
OVER
THE
MACHINE
After taking delivery of the machine and before taking
it
on the road, carefully check
that the oil tank, primary chaincase and gearbox levels are correct (See page 25).
Ensure that the battery is in a charged condition, "topped up" to the correct level
and the battery connections secured.
The tyres should be checked with a pressure gauge and if necessary adjusted in
accordance with the instructions on page
139.
Fill the petrol tank with a premium
grade of fuel and the machine
is
ready for starting.
Although each machine
is
thoroughly checked before leaving the Works or Distri-
butors for the security of all nuts, bolts, etc.,
it
is
advisable after the firsc
100
miles
to re-check and again at
500
miles. This is a necessary precaution due to the bedding
down of the engine and motorcycle parts.
