Transmission Oil - Yamaha YZ85 2013 Owner's Manual

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENT
To install the spark plug
1. Clean the surface of the spark
plug gasket and its mating sur-
face, and then wipe off any grime
from the spark plug threads.
2. Install the spark plug with the
spark plug wrench, and then tight-
en it to the specified torque.
Tightening torque:
Spark plug:
20 Nm (2.0 m·kgf, 14 ft·lbf)
TIP
If 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
7
spark plug should be tightened to the
specified torque as soon as possible.
3. Install the spark plug cap.

Transmission oil

The transmission must be checked for
oil leakage before each ride. If any
leakage is found, have a Yamaha deal-
er check and repair the motorcycle. In
addition, the transmission oil must be
changed at the intervals specified in
the periodic maintenance and lubrica-
tion chart.
1. Start the engine, warm it up for
several minutes, and then turn it
off.
2. Place the motorcycle on a level
surface and hold it in an upright
position.
3. Place an oil pan under the trans-
mission case to collect the used
oil.
4. Remove the oil filler cap, the trans-
mission oil drain bolt and its gas-
ket to drain the oil from the
transmission.
