This machine is designed for off-road use only
by young operators under adult instruction and
supervision. It is illegal for this machine to be
operated on any public street, road, or high-
way.
Off-road use on public lands may be illegal.
Please check local regulations before riding.1. GASOLINE IS HIGHLY FLAMMABLE: * Always turn off the engine when
refueling.
* Take care not to spill on the engine or exhaust pipe/muffler, when refu-
eling.
* Never refuel while smoking or in the vicinity of an open flame.
2. If you should swallow some gasoline or inhale a lot of gasoline vapor, or
allow some gasoline to get in your
eye(s), see your doctor immediately.
If any gasoline spills on your skin or
clothing, immediately wash it with
soap and water, and change your
clothes.
3. Always turn off the engine before leaving the machine unattended.
When parking the machine, note the
following:
* The engine and exhaust pipe(s)/muffler(s) may be hot. Park the
machine in a place where pedestri-
ans or children are not likely to
touch the machine.
* Do not park the machine on a slope or soft ground; the machine may
overturn.
SAFETY INFORMATION

4. When transporting the machine inanother vehicle, be sure is kept
upright and that the fuel cock is
turned to the “OFF ”. If it should lean
over, gasoline may leak out of the car-
buretor or fuel tank.
5. Never start your engine or let it run for any length of time in a closed
area. The exhaust fumes are poison-
ous and may cause loss of con-
sciousness and death within a short
time. Always operate your machine in
an area with adequate ventilation.
6. Always wear a helmet, gloves, boots, trousers, and jacket for motocross
riding.

CLEANING AND STORAGE

CLEANING AND STORAGE

CLEANING
Frequent cleaning of your machine will
enhance its appearance, maintain good overall
performance, and extend the life of many com-
ponents.
1. Before washing the machine, block off the
end of the exhaust pipe to prevent water
from entering.
2. If the engine is excessively greasy, apply some degreaser to it with a paint brush. Do
not apply degreaser to the chain, sprock-
ets, or wheel axles.
3. Rinse the dirt and degreaser off with a gar- den hose; use only enough pressure to do
the job.
CAUTION:
Excessive hose pressure may cause water
seepage and contamination of wheel bear-
ings, front forks, brakes and transmission
seals. Many expensive repair bills have
resulted from improper high pressure
detergent applications such as those avail-
able in coin-operated car washers.
4. After the majority of the dirt has been hosed off, wash all surfaces with warm
water and a mild detergent. Use an old
toothbrush to clean hard-to-reach places.
5. Rinse the machine off immediately with clean water, and dry all surfaces with a soft
towel or cloth.
6. Immediately after washing, remove excess water from the chain with a paper towel
and lubricate the chain to prevent rust.
7. Clean the seat with a vinyl upholstery cleaner to keep the cover pliable and
glossy.
8. Automotive wax may be applied to all
painted or chromed surfaces. Avoid combi-
nation cleaner-waxes, as they may contain
abrasives.
9. After completing the above, start the engine and allow it to idle for several min-
utes.
EC182001
STORAGE
If your machine is to be stored for 60 days or
more, some preventive measures must be
taken to avoid deterioration. After cleaning the
machine thoroughly, prepare it for storage as
follows:
1. Drain the fuel tank, fuel lines, and the car-
buretor float bowl.
2. Remove the spark plug, pour a tablespoon of SAE 10W-30 motor oil in the spark plug
hole, and reinstall the plug. Set the engine
stop switch to “”, turn the engine over
several times with starter. (This will coat
the cylinder walls with oil.)
3. Remove the drive chain, clean it thoroughly with solvent, and lubricate it. Reinstall the
chain or store it in a plastic bag tied to the
frame.
4. Lubricate all control cables.
5. Block the frame up to raise the wheels off the ground.
6. Tie a plastic bag over the exhaust pipe out-
let to prevent moisture from entering.
7. If the machine is to be stored in a humid or salt-air environment, coat all exposed
metal surfaces with a film of light oil. Do not
apply oil to rubber parts or the seat cover.
NOTE:
Make any necessary repairs before the
machine is stored.
