IMPORTANT INFORMATION
EC133000
GASKETS, OIL SEALS AND O-RINGS
1. All gaskets, oil seals, and O-rings should be
replaced when an engine is overhauled. All
gasket surfaces, oil seal lips, and O-rings
must be cleaned.
2. Properly oil all mating parts and bearings
during reassembly. Apply grease to the oil
seal lips.
EC134000
LOCK WASHERS/PLATES AND COTTER
PINS
1. All lock washers/plates 1and cotter pins
must be replaced when they are removed.
Lock tab(s) should be bent along the bolt or
nut flat(s) after the bolt or nut has been
properly tightened.
EC135001
BEARINGS AND OIL SEALS
1. Install the bearing (s) 1and oil seal (s) 2
with their manufacturer’s marks or numbers
facing outward. (In other words, the
stamped letters must be on the side ex-
posed to view.) When installing oil seal(s),
apply a light coating of light-weight lithium
base grease to the seal lip(s). Oil the bear-
ings liberally when installing.
cC
Do not use compressed air to spin the
bearings dry. This causes damage to the
bearing surfaces.
EC132000
ALL REPLACEMENT PARTS
1. We recommend to use Yamaha genuine
parts for all replacements. Use oil and/or
grease recommended by Yamaha for as-
sembly and adjustment.

CONTROL FUNCTIONS
EC150000
CONTROL FUNCTIONS
EC151000
“ENGINE STOP” BUTTON
The “ENGINE STOP” button 1is located on the
left handlebar. Continue pushing the “ENGINE
STOP” button till the engine comes to a stop.
EC152000
CLUTCH LEVER
The clutch lever 1is located on the left handle-
bar; it disengages or engages the clutch. Pull
the clutch lever to the handlebar to disengage
the clutch, and release the lever to engage the
clutch. The lever should be pulled rapidly and re-
leased slowly for smooth starts.
EC153000
SHIFT PEDAL
The gear ratios of the constant-mesh 6 speed
transmission are ideally spaced. The gears can
be shifted by using the shift pedal 1on the left
side of the engine.
EC154000
KICK STARTER
Rotate the kick starter 1away from the engine.
Push the starter down lightly with your foot until
the gears engage, then kick smoothly and force-
fully to start the engine. This model has a prima-
ry kick starter so the engine can be started in
any gear if the clutch is disengaged. In normal
practices, however, shift to neutral before start-
ing.
EC155001
THROTTLE GRIP
The throttle grip 1is located on the right han-
dlebar; it accelerates or decelerates the engine.
For acceleration, turn the grip toward you; for
deceleration, turn it away from you.

STARTING AND BREAK-IN

STARTING AND BREAK-IN
cC
Before starting the machine, perform the
checks in the pre-operation check list.
w
Never start or run the engine in a closed
area. The exhaust fumes are poisonous;
they can cause loss of consciousness and
death in a very short time. Always operate
the machine in a well-ventilated area.
EC191001
STARTING A COLD ENGINE
1. Shift the transmission into neutral.
2. Turn the fuel cock to “ON” and full open the
starter knob (CHOKE).
3. With the throttle completely closed start the
engine by kicking the kick starter forcefully
with firm stroke.
4. Run the engine at idle or slightly higher until
it warms up: this usually takes about one or
two minutes.
5. The engine is warmed up when it responds
normally to the throttle with the starter knob
(CHOKE) turned off.
cC
Do not warm up the engine for extended peri-
ods.
EC193001
STARTING A WARM ENGINE
Do not operate the starter knob (CHOKE). Open
the throttle slightly and start the engine by kick-
ing the kick starter forcefully with firm stroke.
cC
Observe the following break-in procedures
during initial operation to ensure optimum
performance and avoid engine damage.

CLEANING AND STORAGE
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 ma-
chine thoroughly, prepare it for storage as fol-
lows:
1. Drain the fuel tank, fuel lines, and the carbu-
retor 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.
