▣ ▣ CLEANING AND LUBRICATING
● Clean the drive chain with kerosine.
If the drive chain tends to rust quickly, the inter-
vals must be shortened.
CAUTION
Do not use trichloroethylene, gasoline or any sim-
ilar solvent. These fluids have too great a dissolv-
ing power for this chain and they can damage the
O-rings.
Use only kerosine to clean the drive chain.
CAUTION
Some drive chain lubricants contain solvents and
additives which could damage the O-rings in your
chain.
Use Hyosung chain lube or an equivalent that is
specifically intended for use with O-ring chains.
● After washing and drying the chain, oil it with a
engine oil or chain lubricating oil.
CAUTION
The drive chain for this vehicle is made of the
special material.
The standard drive chain is a RK 520EXW recom-
mends to use this standard drive chain as a
replacement.
Use of another chain may lead to premature chain
failure.
