Clutch fluid
Depress and release the clutch pedal five
times. Check to see if any fluid is leaking out
of the hoses, reservoir, or master cylinder.
Check the clutch fluid level and correct if nec-
essary. (See page 8-45.)TIPIf any leakage is found, or if the clutch pedal
offers little resistance, have a Yamaha dealer
service the vehicle. EBU33200FuelMake sure there is sufficient fuel in the tank.
WARNING
EWB02522Gasoline and gasoline vapors are ex-
tremely flammable. To avoid fires and ex-
plosions and to reduce the risk of injury
when refueling, follow these instructions.
1. Before refueling, turn off the engine and
be sure that no one is sitting in the vehi-
cle.
Never refuel while smoking, or while in
the vicinity of sparks, open flames, or
other sources of ignition such as the pilot
lights of water heaters and clothes dry-
ers.
2. Do not overfill the fuel tank. Because fuel expands when it heats up, heat from the
engine or the sun can cause fuel to spill
out of the fuel tank.
3. Wipe up any spilled fuel immediately.
4. Be sure the fuel tank cap is closed se- curely.
WARNING
EWB02532Gasoline is poisonous and can cause inju-
ry or death. Handle gasoline with care.
Never siphon gasoline by mouth. If you
should swallow some gasoline or inhale a
lot of gasoline vapor, or get some gasoline
in your eyes, see your doctor immediately.

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.
WARNING
EWB03450When checking the fuel system, do not
smoke and make sure there are no open
flames or sparks in the area, including pilot
lights from water heaters or furnaces. Gasoline or gasoline vapors can ignite or
explode, causing severe injury or property
damage.
