6 2. Check the spark plug for electrode
erosion and excessive carbon or
other deposits, and replace it if
necessary.
To install the spark plug
1. Measure the spark plug gap with a
wire thickness gauge and, if nec-
essary, adjust the gap to specifi-
cation.2. Clean the surface of the spark
plug gasket and its mating sur-
face, and then wipe off any grime
from the spark plug threads.
3. Install the spark plug with the
spark plug wrench, and then tight-
en it to the specified torque.
TIPIf a torque wrench is not available
when installing a spark plug, a good
estimate of the correct torque is 1/4…
1/2 turn past finger tight. However, the
spark plug should be tightened to the
specified torque as soon as possible.4. Install the spark plug cap.
5. Place the partition in the original
position and install the screws.
6. Install the battery. NOTICE: When
installing the battery, be sure
the key is turned to “ ”, then
connect the positive lead before
connecting the negative lead.

7. After installation, make sure that
the battery leads are properly con-
nected to the battery terminals
and that the breather hose is
properly routed, in good condi-
tion, and not obstructed. NOTICE:
If the breather hose is posi-
tioned in such a way that the
frame is exposed to electrolyte
or gas expelled from the bat-
tery, the frame could suffer
structural and external damag-
es.

and then check it for damage and
replace it if necessary.
5. Check the O-ring for damage and
replace it if necessary.
6. Install the oil strainer, compres-
sion spring, O-ring and engine oil
drain bolt B.
TIPMake sure that the O-ring is properly
seated.7. Install engine oil drain bolt A, and
then tighten both drain bolts to
their specified torques.8. Refill with the specified amount of
the recommended engine oil, and
then install and tighten the oil filler
cap.
NOTICE

Do not use oils with a diesel
specification of “CD” or oils of a
higher quality than specified. In
addition, do not use oils labeled
“ENERGY CONSERVING II” or
higher.
Be sure no foreign material en-
ters the crankcase.
9. Start the engine, and then let it idle
for several minutes while checking
it for oil leakage. If oil is leaking,
immediately turn the engine off
and check for the cause.
10. Turn the engine off, and then
check the oil level and correct it if
necessary.
To reset the oil change indicatorTIPThe oil change indicator can only be re-
set when “OIL CHANGE” appears in
the multi-function display.1. While the key is turned to “ ”,
hold the button pushed more than

Final transmission oilThe final transmission case must be
checked for oil leakage before each
ride. If any leakage is found, have a
Yamaha dealer check and repair the
scooter. In addition, the final transmis-
sion oil must be changed as follows at
the intervals specified in the periodic
maintenance and lubrication chart.
1. Start the engine, warm it up by rid-
ing the scooter for several min-
utes, and then stop the engine.
2. Place the scooter on the center-
stand.
3. Place an oil pan under the final
transmission case to collect the
used oil.4. Remove the oil filler bolt and drain
bolt to drain the oil from the final
transmission case.
5. Install the final transmission oil
drain bolt, and then tighten it to
the specified torque.
6. Refill with the specified amount of
the recommended final transmis-
sion oil, and then install the oil filler
bolt and tighten it to the specified
torque. WARNING! Make sure
that no foreign material enters
the final transmission case.
Make sure that no oil gets on
the tire or wheel.
