Brake fluid
1. Fill:
9Brake fluid
Until the fluid level reaches “LOWER” level
line a.
w
9Use only the designated quality brake fluid:
otherwise, the rubber seals may deterio-
rate, causing leakage and poor brake per-
formance.
9Refill with the same type of brake fluid;
mixing fluids may result in a harmful chemi-
cal reaction and lead to poor performance.
9Be careful that water does not enter the
master cylinder when refilling. Water will
significantly lower the boiling point of the
fluid and may result in vapor lock.
cC
Brake fluid may erode painted surfaces or
plastic parts. Always clean up spilled fluid
immediately.

This should be taken simply for an example.
It is necessary to set the carburetor while
checking the operating conditions of the
engine and discoloration of spark plugs.
Normally, carburetor setting is made by
means of the main jet, jet needle clip position
(including one with 0.5 difference), pilot jet
and pilot air screw. If the result of setting is
still unsatisfactory, it is advisable to change
the diameter of the straight portion the jet
needle.
*In case of hard breathing, check the air vent hose for clogging.
