vantes a été remplacée, un nouveau
rodage est nécessaire.
CYLINDRE ET VILEBREQUIN:
Roder pendant environ une heure.
PISTON, SEGMENT, SOUPAPES,
ARBRES A CAMES ET
PIGNONS:
Ces pièces nécessitent un rodage
d’environ 30 minutes à une ouver-
ture des gaz de 1/2 au maximum.
Surveiller attentivement l’état du
moteur pendant le rodage.PROCEDIMIENTO DE RODAJE
1. Antes de poner en marcha el motor
llene el depósito de combustible.
2. Realice las comprobaciones previas
de la máquina.
3. Arranque y caliente el motor. Com-
pruebe el ralentí, así como el fun-
cionamiento de los mandos y el
botón “ENGINE STOP”. A conti-
nuación vuelva a arrancar el motor
y compruebe su funcionamiento
durante no más de 5 minutos des-
pués de arrancar.
4. Utilice la máquina en marchas cor-
tas y a regímenes moderados
durante cinco a ocho minutos.
5. Observe cómo funciona el motor
con el gas entre 1/4 y 1/2 (régimen
entre bajo y medio) durante aproxi-
madamente una hora.
6. Vuelva a arrancar el motor y com-
pruebe el funcionamiento de la
máquina en todos los regímenes.
Vuelva a arrancar la máquina y uti-
lícela durante 10 o 15 minutos más.
La máquina ya está preparada para
competir.
ATENCION:
Después del rodaje o antes de cada
carrera debe comprobar toda la
máquina para detectar piezas o
sujeciones flojas, conforme a “PUN-
TOS DE COMPROBACIÓN DE
APRIETE”.
Apriete todas las sujeciones según
sea necesario.
Las piezas siguientes, si se cambian,
deben pasar el rodaje.
CILINDRO Y CIGÜEÑAL:
Requieren aproximadamente una
hora de rodaje.
PISTÓN, ARO, VÁLVULAS, EJES
DE LEVAS Y ENGRANAJES:
Estas piezas requieren aproximada-
mente 30 minutos de rodaje a medio
gas o menos. Observe atentamente
el estado del motor durante el fun-
cionamiento.

CLEANING
Frequent cleaning of your machine will
enhance its appearance, maintain good overall
performance, and extend the life of many com-
ponents.
1. Before washing the machine, block off the
end of the exhaust pipe to prevent water
from entering. A plastic bag secured with a
rubber band may be used for this purpose.
2. If the engine is excessively greasy, apply
some degreaser to it with a paint brush. Do
not apply degreaser to the chain, sprock-
ets, or wheel axles.
3. Rinse the dirt and degreaser off with a gar-
den hose; use only enough pressure to do
the job.
CAUTION:
Excessive hose pressure may cause water
seepage and contamination of wheel bear-
ings, front forks, brakes and transmission
seals. Many expensive repair bills have
resulted from improper high pressure
detergent applications such as those avail-
able in coin-operated car washers.
4. After the majority of the dirt has been
hosed off, wash all surfaces with warm
water and a mild detergent. Use an old
toothbrush to clean hard-to-reach places.
5. Rinse the machine off immediately with
clean water, and dry all surfaces with a soft
towel or cloth.
6. Immediately after washing, remove excess
water from the chain with a paper towel
and lubricate the chain to prevent rust.
7. Clean the seat with a vinyl upholstery
cleaner to keep the cover pliable and
glossy.

CLEANING AND STORAGE
8. Automotive wax may be applied to all
painted or chromed surfaces. Avoid combi-
nation cleaner-waxes, as they may contain
abrasives.
9. After completing the above, start the
engine and allow it to idle for several min-
utes.
EC1B2001
STORAGE
If your machine is to be stored for 60 days or
more, some preventive measures must be
taken to avoid deterioration. After cleaning the
machine thoroughly, prepare it for storage as
follows:
1. Drain the fuel tank, fuel lines, and the car-
buretor float bowl.
2. Remove the spark plug, pour a tablespoon
of SAE 10W-30 motor oil in the spark plug
hole, and reinstall the plug. With the engine
stop switch pushed in, kick the engine over
several times to coat the cylinder walls with
oil.
3. Remove the drive chain, clean it thoroughly
with solvent, and lubricate it. Reinstall the
chain or store it in a plastic bag tied to the
frame.
4. Lubricate all control cables.
5. Block the frame up to raise the wheels off
the ground.
6. Tie a plastic bag over the exhaust pipe out-
let to prevent moisture from entering.
7. If the machine is to be stored in a humid or
salt-air environment, coat all exposed
metal surfaces with a film of light oil. Do not
apply oil to rubber parts or the seat cover.
NOTE:
Make any necessary repairs before the
machine is stored.
