19. When coolant begins to flow out of the bolt
hole, tighten the cylinder head air bleed bolt to
the specified torque.
20. Start the engine and let it idle for ten minutes.
21. Rev the engine five times.
22. Pour the recommended coolant into the radia- tor until it is full. 23. Stop the engine and allow it to cool. If the cool-
ant level has dropped after the engine has
cooled, add sufficient coolant until it reaches
the top of the radiator, and then install the ra-
diator cap.
24. Start the engine, and then check for coolant leakage.
TIPIf any leakage is found, have a Yamaha dealer
check the cooling system.25. Install the V-belt cooling duct, and then tightenthe clamp screw.
26. Install the footboard by installing the bolts and nuts, and then tighten them to the specified
torques.

ommended coolant as soon as possible.Wait until the
engine has cooled.
Check the coolant level in the
reservoir and radiator.
The coolant level
is OK.The coolant level is low.
Check the cooling system

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.
