is low, add more coolant until it
reaches the top of the radiator.
13. Fill the reservoir tank with
coolant up to specified level.
14. Install the reservoir tank cap and
check for coolant leakage.

Make sure that the fuel hoses and
vacuum hose are properly con-

EAU00629Carburetor adjustment
The carburetor is a vital part of the
engine and requires very sophisticat-
ed adjustment. Most adjustments
should be left to a Yamaha dealer
who has the professional knowledge
and experience to do so. However,
the following may be serviced by the
owner as part of routine mainte-
nance.
EC000094
cC
The carburetor was set at the
Yamaha factory after many tests. If
the settings are changed, poor
engine performance and damage
may result.

EAU00632Idle speed adjustment
1. Start the engine and warm it up
for a few minutes at approxi-
mately 1,000 to 2,000 r/min.
Occasionally rev the engine to
4,000 to 5,000 r/min. The engine
is warm when it quickly responds
to the throttle.
2. Set the idle to the specified
engine speed by adjusting the
throttle stop screw. Turn the
screw in direction ato increase
engine speed and in direction b
to decrease engine speed.
