Emission controls not only function to
ensure cleaner air, but are also vital to
proper engine operation and maximum
performance. In the following periodic
maintenance charts, the services relat-
ed to emissions control are grouped
separately. These services require
specialized data, knowledge, and
equipment. Maintenance, replace-
ment, or repair of the emission control
devices and systems may be per-
formed by any repair establishment or
individual that is certified (if applicable).
Yamaha dealers are trained and
equipped to perform these particular
services.

maintenance and minor repairs. How-
ever, additional tools such as a torque
wrench may be necessary to perform
certain maintenance work correctly.
TIP

ence required for a particular job, have

placed and the V-belt case air filter el-
ement should be cleaned at the
intervals specified in the periodic main-
tenance and lubrication chart. Service
the air filter elements more frequently if
you are riding in unusually wet or dusty
areas. The air filter check hose and V-
belt case air filter check hose must be
frequently checked and cleaned if nec-
essary.

the air filter case for accumulated
dirt or water.
2. If dirt or water is visible, remove
the hose from the clamp, clean it,
and then install it.

hose, be sure to check the air filter ele-
ment for excessive dirt or damage and
replace it if necessary.
