3. Check for sufficient play on the clutch (two to three millimeters). (Also see image
55).
4. Check air pressure. (See section 3.21)
5. Check brakes
4.212 During stays in transit
1. During short stops after a longer drive, it is advisable to check the tire temparature.
Unusually warm tires leave to conclude, that the air pressure is too low (great
thermal stress caused by excessive friction).
2. Check tires for nails or other objects that might stick in the tires, especially after
driving on dirt roads or low quality streets.
4.213 After returning
1. Check tires as described in section 4.211
2. After long drives over dirty or sandy roads, (summertime), clean air filter and
coat it with oil (Also see section 2.182).
3. After driving in bad weather: spray scooter off with water while the dirt is still moist.
4. Close fuel tap after parking the scooter.
4.22 Lubricating the engine
This engine works with an oil-fuel ration of 5%. This means, that the engine is lubricated by the oil
additive in the fuel. Never fill scooter up with unmixed fuel !! Operating the engine without oil
additive, would destroy the crank, big end bearings and the cylinder track, because they would run
dry. To ensure proper lubrication of the engine at all times (winter or summer) therefore is 5%.
4.23 Lubricating the chassis
Lubrication of the chassis at the lube nipples (see lube chart for details) is just as important as the
lubrication of the engine and gear box. Lubrication is applied with the supplied grease gun. With
exception of the cable nipples, every nipple is lubed with grease. The cables are to be lubed with
thick engine oil (NO grease !!).
The joints of the handlebar levers are lubed with a few drops of motor oil.
Malfunction of the grease gun:
Incase of contamination of the lubricant inside the grease gun, which may cause the grease gun do
not operate, remove the mouthpiece and take out the valve spring with ball. Afterwards clean parts
from contaminated lubricant and reassemble grease gun.
