CLEANING AND
STORAGE
EC1B1000CLEANING
Frequent cleaning of your machine
will enhance its appearance, main-
tain good overall performance, and
extend the life of many components.
1. Before washing the machine,
block off the end of the exhaust
pipe to prevent water from enter-
ing. A plastic bag secured with a
rubber band may be used for this
purpose.
2. If the engine is excessively
greasy, apply some degreaser to
it with a paint brush. Do not
apply degreaser to the chain,
sprockets, or wheel axles.
3. Rinse the dirt and degreaser off
with a garden hose; use only
enough pressure to do the job.
CAUTION:
Excessive hose pressure may
cause water seepage and contami-
nation of wheel bearings, front
forks, brakes and transmission
seals. Many expensive repair bills
have resulted from improper high
pressure detergent applications
such as those available in coin-
operated car washers.
4. After the majority of the dirt has
been hosed off, wash all sur-
faces with warm water and a
mild detergent. Use an old tooth-
brush to clean hard-to-reach
places.
5. Rinse the machine off immedi-
ately 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 uphol-
stery cleaner to keep the cover
pliable and glossy.
8. Automotive wax may be applied
to all painted or chromed sur-
faces. Avoid combination
cleaner-waxes, as they may con-
tain abrasives.
9. After completing the above, start
the engine and allow it to idle for
several minutes.
NETTOYAGE ET
REMISAGE
NETTOYAGE
Un nettoyage fréquent de la moto préser-
vera son apparence, maintiendra ses bon-
nes performances et augmentera la durée
de vie de nombre de ses composants.
1. Avant de nettoyer la moto, couvrir
la sortie du tuyau d’échappement
pour éviter toute pénétration d’eau.
Un sachet en plastique retenu par un
élastique fera l’affaire.
2. Si le moteur est fortement encrassé,
appliquer un peu de dégraissant à
l’aide d’un pinceau. Eviter tout con-
tact avec la chaîne, les pignons ou
les axes de roue.
3. Rincer la saleté et le dégraissant au
tuyau d’arrosage, en utilisant juste
la pression nécessaire.
ATTENTION:
Une pression excessive risque de cau-
ser des infiltrations d’eau dans les
roulements des roues, la fourche
avant, les freins et les joints de la
transmission. L’emploi abusif de
détergents sous forte pression, tels que
ceux utilisés dans les portiques de
lavage automatique, est nuisible à la
moto et peut entraîner des réparations
onéreuses.
4. Après avoir éliminé le plus gros de
la saleté au tuyau d’arrosage, laver
toutes les surfaces à l’eau chaude
savonneuse (employer un détergent
doux). Une vieille brosse à dents
convient parfaitement pour nettoyer
les parties difficiles d’accès.
5. Rincer immédiatement la moto à
l’eau claire et sécher toutes les sur-
faces à l’aide d’une peau de cha-
mois, d’une serviette ou d’un
chiffon doux absorbant.
6. Sécher immédiatement la chaîne à
l’aide d’une serviette en papier et la
graisser afin de la protéger contre la
rouille.
7. Nettoyer la selle à l’aide d’un pro-
duit de nettoyage pour similicuir
afin de conserver intacts la sou-
plesse et le lustre de la housse.
8. Une cire pour carrosserie peut être
utilisée pour toutes les surfaces
peintes et chromées. Ne pas
employer de cires détergentes car
elles contiennent souvent des abra-
sifs.
9. Lorsque le nettoyage est terminé,
mettre le moteur en marche et le
laisser tourner au ralenti pendant
plusieurs minutes.
