Periodic maintenance and lubrication chart
TIP
●The annual checks must be performed every year, except if a kilometer-based maintenance, or for the UK,
a mileage-based maintenance, is performed instead.
●From 30000 km (17500 mi), repeat the maintenance intervals starting from 6000 km (3500 mi).
●Items marked with an asterisk should be performed by a Yamaha dealer as they require special tools, data and
technical skills.

TIP
●The air filter needs more frequent service if you are riding in unusually wet or dusty areas.
●Hydraulic brake service
•Regularly check and, if necessary, correct the brake fluid level.
•Every two years change the brake fluid.
•Replace the brake hoses every four years and if cracked or damaged.

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
1. Place the scooter on the centers-
tand.
2. Remove the air filter case cover
by removing the screw.

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.
NOTICE: Make sure that each
filter element is properly sea-
ted in its case. The engine
should never be operated wit-
hout the filter elements insta-
lled, otherwise the piston(s)
and/or cylinder(s) may become
excessively worn.

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.
EAU21370
Adjusting the throttle cable
free play
1. Throttle cable free play
The throttle cable free play should
measure 4.0–6.0 mm (0.16–0.24 in) at
the throttle grip. Periodically check
the throttle cable free play and, if
necessary, adjust it as follows.
TIP
The engine idling speed must be
correctly adjusted before checking
and adjusting the throttle cable free
play.
1. Loosen the locknut.
2. To increase the throttle cable free
play, turn the adjusting nut in
