TIPDon’t forget to have your Yamaha dealer
check the clutch and transmission as a whole
at the intervals specified in the general main-
tenance and lubrication chart. EBU32530Checking the brake pedalHave a Yamaha dealer check the brakes at
the intervals specified in the periodic mainte-
nance and lubrication chart. There should beno free play in the brake pedal. The brakes
should operate smoothly and there should be
no brake drag. If the brakes feel soft or
spongy, this could indicate air in the brake
system. Have a Yamaha dealer check the
brake system if necessary.1. Clutch pedal

CLEANING AND STORAGE
EBU35920CleaningFrequent, 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 pipe to prevent water entry. A plastic bag
and strong rubber band may be used.
b. Make sure the spark plugs 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 the brakes. Wet brakes may have reduced stopping ability, in-
creasing the chance of an accident.
[EWB03471]

NOTICE: Excessive water pres-
sure may cause water seepage and
deterioration of wheel bearings,
brakes, transmission seals and electri-
cal devices. Many expensive repair
bills have resulted from improper high-
pressure detergent applications such
as those available in coin-operated car
washers.
[ECB00712]
4. Once the majority of the dirt has been hosed off, wash all surfaces with warm
water and mild, detergent-type soap. An
old toothbrush or bottle brush is handy
for hard-to-get-at places.
5. Rinse the vehicle off immediately with
clean water and dry all surfaces with a
clean chamois towel or soft, absorbent
cloth.
6. Clean the seats with a vinyl upholstery cleaner to keep the covers pliable and
glossy.
