Periodic maintenance and lubrication chart
NOTE:
The annual checks must be performed every year, except if a kilometer-based maintenance is performed
instead.
From 50000 km, repeat the maintenance intervals starting from 10000 km.
Items marked with an asterisk should be performed by a Yamaha dealer as they require special tools, data and
technical skills.

3. If the coolant is at or below the
minimum level mark, remove the
front cowling by removing the
screws.
4. Open the reservoir cap, and then
add coolant to the maximum
level mark.
ECA10470
CAUTION
If coolant is not available, use
distilled water or soft tap water
instead. Do not use hard water
or salt water since it is harmful
to the engine.
If water has been used instead
of coolant, replace it with coo-
lant as soon as possible, other-
wise the engine may not be
sufficiently cooled and the coo-
ling system will not be protec-
ted against frost and corrosion.
If water has been added to the
coolant, have a Yamaha dealer
check the antifreeze content of
the coolant as soon as possi-
ble, otherwise the effective-
ness of the coolant will be
reduced.
5. Close the reservoir cap, and then
install the front cowling by insta-
lling the screws.

Air filter and V-belt case air
filter elements
The air filter and the V-belt case air fil-
ter elements should be cleaned at the
intervals specified in the periodic
maintenance and lubrication chart.
Clean both filter elements more fre-
quently if you are riding in unusually
wet or dusty areas.Cleaning the air filter element

2. Screw (x 1)
1. Place the scooter on the centers-
tand.
2. Remove the air filter case cover
by removing the screws.

then blow out the dirt with com-
pressed air as shown.3. Check the air filter element for
damage and replace it if neces-
sary.
4. Install the air filter element with
the colored side facing outward.
5. Install the V-belt case air filter
cover by installing the screws.
ECA10530
CAUTION
Make sure that each filter ele-
ment is properly seated in its
case.
The engine should never be
operated without the filter ele-
ments installed, otherwise the
piston(s) and/or cylinder(s)
may become excessively worn.
EAU21300
Adjusting the carburetor
The carburetor is an important part of
the engine and requires very sophisti-
cated adjustment. Therefore, all car-
buretor adjustments should be left to
a Yamaha dealer, who has the neces-
sary professional knowledge and
experience.
EAU21381
Checking the throttle cable
free play
The throttle cable free play should
measure 1,5~3,0 mm (0,060~0,118 in)
at the throttle grip. Periodically check
the throttle cable free play and, if
necessary, have a Yamaha dealer
adjust it.
