raise it to the correct level, and then install
and tighten the oil tank filler cap.CAUTION:_

the engine oil also lubricates the clutch),
do not mix any chemical additives with the

addition, do not use oils labeled “ENERGY
CONSERVING II” or higher.
Make sure that no foreign material enters

could cause an accident or injury.Lubricate the inner cables and the cable ends. If
the cables do not operate smoothly, ask a Yamaha
