Why Yamalu be
YAMALUBE oil is a Genuine YAMAHA Part born of the engineers’ passion
and belief that engine oil is an impor-
tant liquid engine component. We form
teams of specialists in the fields of me- chanical engineering, chemistry, elec-
tronics and track testing, and have
them develop the engine together with
the oil it will use. Yamalube oils take full
advantage of the base oil’s qualities
and blend in the ideal balance of addi-
tives to make sure the final oil clears
our performance standards. Thus,
Yamalube mineral, semisynthetic and synthetic oils have their own distinct
characters and value. Yamaha’s expe-
rience gained over many years of re-
search and development into oil since
the 1960’s helps make Yamalube the
best choice for your Yamaha engine.
If the recommended 2-stroke engine
oil is not available, use an equivalent
high-quality oil.
NOTICE
ECA15552
Never mix two bran ds of 2-stroke
en gine oil in the same batch. Always
use the same type of oil to ensure
maximum eng ine performance.
Shoul d it b e necessary to use a dif-
ferent oil b rand, b e sure to d rain the
fuel tank an d the car buretor float
cham ber of the ol d premixe d fuel
prior to filling with the new type.Gasoline
This model’s engine is designed to use
premium unleaded gasoline with a
pump octane number [(R+M)/2] of 91
or higher, or a research octane number
(RON) of 95 or higher. If knocking or
pinging occurs, try a gasoline of a dif-
ferent brand.NOTICE
ECA15591
Use only unlea ded g asoline. The use
of lea ded g asoline will cause severe
d amag e to internal en gine parts,
such as the piston rin gs as well as to
the exhaust system.

5. Install the drain bolt and its new
gasket, and then tighten the bolt
to the specified torque.
6. Refill with the specified amount of the recommended transmission
oil.
NOTICE
ECA10453
In or der to prevent clutch slip-
pa ge (since the transmission oil
also lu bricates the clutch), d o
not mix any chemical additives.
Do not use oils with a d iesel
specification of “CD” or oils of a
hi gher quality than specifie d. In
a ddition, do not use oils la beled
“ENERGY CONSERVING II” or
hi gher.
Make sure that no forei gn mate-
rial enters the transmission.7. Check the O-ring for damage, and replace it if necessary.
8. Install and tighten the transmis- sion oil filler cap and its O-ring.
9. Start the engine, and then let it idle for several minutes while checking
it for oil leakage. If oil is leaking,
immediately turn the engine off
and check for the cause.
EAU20071
CoolantThe coolant level should be checked
before each ride. In addition, the cool-
ant must be changed at the intervals
specified in the periodic maintenance
and lubrication chart.
EAUM1296
To check the coolant level1. Place the vehicle on a level sur- face and hold it in an upright posi-
tion.TIPThe coolant level must be
checked on a cold engine since
the level varies with engine tem-
perature.
Make sure that the vehicle is posi-
tioned straight up when checking
the coolant level. A slight tilt to the
side can result in a false reading.2. Remove the radiator cap and
check the coolant level in the radi-
ator. WARNING! Never attempt
to remove the ra diator cap
when the en gine is hot.

TIPThe sponge material should be wet but
not dripping.6. Pull the sponge material over theair filter element frame.
7. Insert the air filter element into the air filter case with the projection
facing upward, and then install the
wing bolt and its washer.
