EVU01010Troubleshooting
Although Yamaha vehicles receive an inspec-
tion before shipment from the factory, trouble
may occur during operation. Any problem in
the fuel, compression, or ignition systems can
cause poor starting and loss of power. The
troubleshooting chart describes a quick, easy
procedure for making checks. If your vehicle
requires any repair, take it to a Yamaha deal-
er.
The skilled technicians at a Yamaha dealer-
ship have the tools, experience, and know-
how to properly service your vehicle. Use only
genuine Yamaha parts on your vehicle. Imita-
tion parts may look like Yamaha parts, but
they are often inferior. Consequently, they
have a shorter service life and can lead to ex-
pensive repair bills.
Tightening torque:
Panel nut: 7 Nm (0.7 m·kgf, 5.1 ft·lbf)

1-CLEANING AND STORAGE
A. Cleaning
Frequent, thorough cleaning of your vehicle
will not only enhance its appearance but will
improve its general performance and extend
the useful life of many components.1. Before cleaning the vehicle:
a. Block off the end of the exhaust pipeto prevent water entry. A plastic bag
and strong rubber band may be used.
b. Make sure the spark plug and all filler caps are properly installed.
2. If the engine case is excessively greasy,
apply degreaser with a paint brush. Do
not apply degreaser to the wheel axles. 3. Rinse the dirt and degreaser off with a
garden hose. Use only enough pressure
to do the job. WARNING! Test the
brakes after washing. Apply the
brakes several times at slow speeds
to let friction dry out the linings. Wet
brakes may have reduced stopping
ability, increasing the chance of an ac-
cident. NOTICE: Excessive water
pressure may cause water seepage
and deterioration of wheel bearings,
brakes, transmission seals and elec-
trical devices. Many expensive repair
bills have resulted from improper
high-pressure detergent applications,
such as those available in coin-oper-
ated car washers.1RB7A_EE.book Page 1 Tuesday, April 24, 2012 9:07 AM

2. Remove the spark plug, pour a tea-spoonful of engine oil into the spark plug
bore and install the spark plug. Ground
the spark plug wire and turn the engine
over several times to coat the cylinder
wall with oil.
3. Lubricate all control cables.
4. Block up the frame to raise all wheels off the ground.
5. Tie a plastic bag over the exhaust pipe outlet to prevent moisture from entering.
6. If storing in a humid or salt-air atmo-
sphere, coat all exposed metal surfaces
with a light film of oil. Do not apply oil to
any rubber parts or the seat covers. 7. Remove the battery and charge it. Store
it in a dry place and recharge it once a
month. Do not store the battery in an ex-
cessively warm or cold place [less than
0 °C (30 °F) or more than 30 °C (90 °F)].
Use of fuel stabilizer and conditioner elimi-
nates the need to drain the fuel system. Con-
sult a Yamaha dealer if the fuel system needs
to be drained.

The figures quoted are emission levels and are not
necessarily safe working levels. Whilst there is a
correlation between the emission and exposure
levels, this cannot be used reliably to determine
whether or not further precautions are required.
Factors that influence the actual level of exposure
of work-force include the characteristics of the
work room, the other sources of noise, etc. i.e. the
number of machines and other adjacent process-
es, and the length of time for which an operator is
exposed to the noise. Also the permissible expo-
sure level can vary from country. This information,
however, will enable the user of the machine to
make a better evaluation of the hazard and risk.
