Final transmission oil
The final transmission case must be checked for
oil leakage before each ride. If any leakage is
found, have a Yamaha dealer check and repair
the machine. In addition, the final transmission
oil must be changed at the intervals specified in
the periodic maintenance and lubrication chart.
Final transmission oil measurement
1. Place the machine on a level surface.
2. Remove the screw and check the oil level. It
should be up to the brim of the hole. If the
oil level is low, remove the oil filler bolt, and
then add sufficient oil of the recommended
type to raise it to the proper level.
3. Install the screw and oil filler bolt, and then
tighten them to their specified torques.we

NOTE:
The air filter element should be cleaned every
20-40 hours. It should be cleaned and lubricated
more often if the machine is operated in
extremely dusty areas. Each time air filter ele-
ment maintenance is performed, check the air
inlet to the air filter case for obstructions. Check
the air filter case rubber joint to the carburetor
and manifold fittings for an airtight seal. Tighten
all fittings securely to avoid the possibility of
unfiltered air entering the engine.
cC
Never operate the engine with the air filter
element removed. This will allow unfiltered
air to enter, causing rapid engine wear and
possible engine damage. Additionally, opera-
tion without the air filter element will affect
carburetor jetting with subsequent poor per-
formance and possible engine overheating.
