Troubleshooting
Although Yamaha machines receive a rigid in-
spection before shipment from the factory,
trouble may occur during operation.
Any problem in the fuel, compression, or igni-
tion systems can cause poor starting and loss
of power. The troubleshooting chart describes
a quick, easy procedure for making checks. If
your machine requires any repair, take it to a
Yamaha dealer.
The skilled technicians at a Yamaha dealership
have the tools, experience, and know-how to
properly service your machine. Use only genu-
ine Yamaha parts on your machine. Imitation
parts may look like Yamaha parts, but they are
often inferior. Consequently, they have a short-
er service life and can lead to expensive repair
bills.
WARNING
Do not smoke when checking the fuel system.
Fuel can ignite or explode, causing severe inju-
ry or property damage. Make sure there are no
open flames or sparks in the area, including pi-
lot lights from water heaters or furnaces.

all painted and chrome plated surfaces.
Avoid combination cleaner-waxes. Many
contain abrasives which may mar the
paint or protective finish. When finished,
start the engine and let it idle for several
minutes.
WARNING
Wet brakes may have reduced stopping abili-
ty, increasing the chance of an accident. Test
the brakes after washing. Apply the brakes
several times at slow speeds to let friction dry
out the linings.
