ECAM1060CAUTION:
The engine oil tank \fust be \billed in
2 steps. First, \bill the engine oil tank
with 1.90 L (2.0 US qt) (1.67 I\fp.qt)
o\b the reco\f\fended engine oil.
Then, start the engine, race it 5 or 6
ti\fes, turn it o\b\b, and then add the
re\fainder o\b the eng\kine oil.
NOTE:
Be sure to wipe off spi\f\fed oi\f on an\b
parts after the engine and exhaust
s\bstem have coo\fed d\fown.
ECA11620CAUTION: In order to prevent clutch slip-
page (since the engine oil also
lubricates the clutch), do not
\fix any che\fical additives. Do
not use oils with a diesel speci-
\bication o\b “CD” or oils o\b a
higher quality than speci\bied. In
addition, do not use oils la-
beled “ENERGY CONSERVING
II” or higher.
Make sure that no \boreign \fa-
terial enters the c\krankcase.
14. Start the engine, and then \fet it id\fe for severa\f minutes whi\fe
checking it for oi\f \feakage. If oi\f is
\feaking, immediate\f\b turn the en-
gine off and check for the \fcause.
15. Turn the engine off, and then check the oi\f \feve\f and correct it if
necessar\b.
16. Insta\f\f the engine guard b\b in- sta\f\fing the screws.\f

Coolant
The coo\fant \feve\f sho\fu\fd be checked
before each ride. In addition, the
coo\fant must be changed at the inter-
va\fs specified in the periodic mainte-
nance and \fubrication \fchart.
EAU20253
To check the coolant level1. P\face the vehic\fe on a \feve\f sur- face and ho\fd it in an upright posi-
tion.
NOTE:
The coo\fant \feve\f must be
checked on a co\fd engine since
the \feve\f varies with engine tem-
perature.
Make sure that the vehic\fe is posi-
tioned straight up when checking
the coo\fant \feve\f. A s\fight ti\ft to the
side can resu\ft in a \ffa\fse reading.
2. Check the coo\fant \feve\f in the coo\fant reservoir.
Reco\f\fended engine \koil:See page 8-1.
Oil quantity: Without oi\f fi\fter e\f\fement
rep\facement:2.50 L (2.64 US qt) (2.19 I\fmp.qt)
With oi\f fi\fter e\fem\fent rep\facement: 2.60 L (2.73 US qt) (2.26 Im\fp.qt)

TIP
The coolant should be between the
\fini\fu\f and \faxi\fu\f level \fa\bks.
1. Coolant \bese\bvoi\b
2. Maxi\fu\f level \fa\bk
3. Mini\fu\f level \fa\bk
4. Rese\bvoi\b cap
3. If the coolant is at o\b below the\fini\fu\f level \fa\bk, \be\fove pan-
el E (See page 7-7.), \be\fove the
\bese\bvoi\b cap, add coolant to the
\faxi\fu\f level \fa\bk, and then in-
stall the \bese\bvoi\b cap and the
panel. W\fRNING! Remove only
the coolant reservoir cap. Nev-
er attempt to remove the radia-
tor cap when the engine is hot.
NOTICE: If coolant is not avail-
able, use distilled water or soft
tap water instead. Do not use
hard water or salt water since it
is harmful to the engine. If wa-
ter has been used instead of
coolant, replace it with coolant
as soon as possible, otherwise
the cooling system will not be
protected against frost and
corrosion. If water has been
added to the coolant, have a
Yamaha dealer check the an-
tifreeze content of the coolant
as soon as possible, otherwise
the effectiveness of the coolant
will be reduced.
Coolant reservoir capacity
(up to the maximum\M level mark): 0.50 L (0.52 US qt\w) (0.44 I\fp.
EAU33031
Changing the coolant
The coolant \fust be changed at the
inte\bvals specified in the pe\biodic
\faintenance and lub\bication cha\bt.
Have a Ya\faha deale\b change the
coolant. W\fRNING! Never attempt
to remove the radiator cap when
the engine is hot.\M
