1 -PERIODIC MAINTENANCE AND
ADJUSTMENTPeriodic inspection, adjustment, and lubrication
will keep your vehicle in the safest and most effi-
cient condition possible.
Safety is an obligation of the vehicle owner/opera-
tor. The most important points of vehicle inspec-
tion, adjustment, and lubrication are explained on
the following pages.
WARNING
Failure to properly maintain the vehicle or per-
forming maintenance activities incorrectly
may increase your risk of injury or death dur-
ing service or while using the vehicle. If you
are not familiar with vehicle service, have a
Yamaha dealer perform service.

Owner’s manual and tool kit
You are recommended to put this owner’s manual
in the vinyl bag and always carry it underneath the
driver seat as shown. Put the owner’s tool kit and
tire pressure gauge in the space beside the bat-
tery.
The service information included in this manual is
intended to provide you, the owner, with the nec-
essary information for completing your own pre-
ventive maintenance and minor repairs.
The tools provided in the owner’s tool kit are suffi-
cient for this purpose, except that a torque wrench
is also necessary to properly tighten nuts and
bolts.
If you do not have a torque wrench available dur-
ing a service operation requiring one, take your ve-
hicle to a Yamaha dealer to check the torque
settings and adjust them as necessary.

Valve clearance
The correct valve clearance changes with use, re-
sulting in improper fuel/air supply or engine noise.
To prevent this, the valve clearance must be ad-
justed regularly. This adjustment however, should
be left to a professional Yamaha service techni-
cian.Tightening torque:

Brakes
Replacement of brake components requires pro-
fessional knowledge. Brake service should be per-
formed by a Yamaha dealer.
WARNING

ed brakes could lead to a loss in braking ability
and an accident.

Brake fluid replacement
Complete fluid replacement should be done only
by trained Yamaha service personnel. Have a
Yamaha dealer replace the following components
during periodic maintenance or when they are
damaged or leaking.

Replace the oil seals every two years.


Replace the brake hoses every four years.
EVU01220
Checking the brake pedal
Have a Yamaha dealer check the brakes at the in-
tervals specified in the periodic maintenance and
lubrication chart. There should be no free play in
the brake pedal. The brakes should operate
smoothly and there should be no brake drag. If the
brakes feel soft or spongy, this could indicate air in
the brake system. Have a Yamaha dealer check
the brake system if necessary.

Troubleshooting
Although Yamaha vehicles receive an inspection
before shipment from the factory, trouble may oc-
cur during operation. Any problem in the fuel, com-
pression, or ignition systems can cause poor
starting and loss of power. The troubleshooting
chart describes a quick, easy procedure for mak-
ing checks. If your vehicle requires any repair, take
it to a Yamaha dealer.
The skilled technicians at a Yamaha dealership
have the tools, experience, and know-how to prop-
erly service your vehicle. Use only genuine
Yamaha parts on your vehicle. Imitation parts may
look like Yamaha parts, but they are often inferior.
Consequently, they have a shorter service life and
can lead to expensive repair bills.
WARNING
When checking the fuel system, do not smoke
and make sure there are no open flames or
sparks in the area, including pilot lights from
water heaters or furnaces. Gasoline or gaso-
line vapors can ignite or explode, causing se-
vere injury or property damage.

ity than specified. In addition, do not use oils la-
beled “ENERGY CONSERVING II” or higher.
