Oil filler plug
11. Inspect:
Engine (for oil leaks)
Oil level
Refer to “ENGINE OIL LEVEL INSPEC-
TION”.
12. Check:
Oil pressure
PILOT SCREW ADJUSTMENT
1. Adjust:
Pilot screw 1
* Except for USAChecking steps:
Slightly loosen the oil gallery bolt 1.
Start the engine and keep it idling until oil
starts to seep from the oil gallery bolt. If no
oil comes out after one minute, turn the
engine off so it will not seize.
Check oil passages, oil filter and oil pump
for damage or leakage.
Start the engine after solving the prob-
lem(s) and recheck the oil pressure.
Tighten the oil gallery bolt to specification.

Adjusting steps:
NOTE:
To optimize the fuel flow at a smaller throttle
opening, each machine’s pilot screw has
been individually set at the factory. Before
adjusting the pilot screw, turn it in fully and
count the number of turns. Record this num-
ber as the factory-set number of turns out.
Turn in the pilot screw until it is lightly
seated.
Turn out the pilot screw by the factory-set
number of turns.
Pilot screw:
1-3/4 turns out (example)
*1-1/2 turns out (example)

suitable stand under the engine.
2. Check:
Drive chain slack a
Above the seal guard installation bolt.
Out of specification → Adjust.
NOTE:
Before checking and/or adjusting, rotate the
rear wheel through several revolutions and
check the slack several times to find the tight-
est point. Check and/or adjust the chain slack
with the rear wheel in this “tight chain” position.
Drive chain slack:
40 ~ 50 mm (1.6 ~ 2.0 in)
3. Adjust:
Drive chain slack
Drive chain slack adjustment steps:
Loosen the axle nut 1 and locknuts 2.
Adjust the chain slack by turning the
adjusters 3.
To tighten → Turn the adjuster 3 coun-
terclockwise.
To loosen → Turn the adjuster 3 clock-
wise and push wheel for-
ward.
Turn each adjuster exactly the same
amount to maintain correct axle alignment.
(There are marks a on each side of the
chain puller alignment.)
NOTE:
Turn the adjuster so that the chain is in line
with the sprocket, as viewed from the rear.
CAUTION:
Too small chain slack will overload the
engine and other vital parts; keep the
slack within the specified limits.

ENGCRANKCASE AND CRANKSHAFT
REMOVAL POINTS
Crankcase
1. Separate:
Crankcase (right)
Crankcase (left)
Separation steps:
Remove the crankcase bolts, hose guide
and clutch cable holder.
NOTE:
Loosen each bolt 1/4 of a turn at a time and
after all the bolts are loosened, remove
them.
Remove the crankcase (right).
NOTE:
Place the crankcase with its left side
downward and split it by inserting a screw-
driver tip into the splitting slit a in the
crankcase.
Lift the crankcase (right) horizontally while
lightly patting the case splitting slit and
engine mounting boss using a soft ham-
mer, and leave the crankshaft and trans-
mission with the crankcase (left).
CAUTION:
Use soft hammer to tap on the case half.
Tap only on reinforced portions of case.
Do not tap on gasket mating surface.
Work slowly and carefully. Make sure the
case halves separate evenly. If one end
“hangs up”, take pressure off the push
screw, realign, and start over. If the
cases do not separate, check for a
remaining case screw or fitting. Do not
force.
Remove the dowel pins and O-ring.
