could cause the brakes to malfunction,
resulting in reduced braking performance.
This could increase the chance of a collision
or accident. After adjusting the parking
brake, block the rear of the machine off the
ground and spin the rear wheels. Check to
make sure there is no brake drag. If brake
drag is noticed, perform the adjustment
again.

CLEANING AND STORAGE
A. CLEANING
Frequent, thorough cleaning of your machine
will not only enhance its appearance but will
improve its general performance and extend the
useful life of many components.
1. Before cleaning the machine:
a. Block off the end of the exhaust pipe to
prevent water entry. A plastic bag and
strong rubber band may be used.
b. Make sure the spark plugs and all filler
caps are properly installed.
2. If the engine case is excessively greasy,
apply degreaser with a paint brush. Do not
apply degreaser to the chain, sprockets or
wheel axles.
3. Rinse the dirt and degreaser off with a gar-
den hose. Use only enough pressure to do
the job.

9-9
5. Block up the frame to raise all wheels off
the ground.
6. Tie a plastic bag over the exhaust pipe out-
let to prevent moisture from entering.
7. If storing in a humid or salt-air atmosphere,
coat all exposed metal surfaces with a light
film of oil. Do not apply oil to any rubber
parts or the seat cover.
NOTE:
Make any necessary repairs before storing the
machine.
