Periods of inactivity (03_50)

We recommend carrying out the following operations:

1. Clean the scooter thoroughly and then cover it with a canvas;

2. With the engine off and the piston in the bottom dead centre position, remove the

spark plug, and pour into its hole 1 t0 2 cc of the recommended oil. Operate the starter

button 1-2 times for roughly 1 second to turn the engine over slowly, then insert the

spark plug again;

3. Ensure that the fuel tank is at least half full (in order to ensure the total im-

mersion of the fuel pump); spread antirust grease on the unpainted metal parts;

keep the wheels lifted above the ground by resting the chassis on two wooden wedges;

4. As regards the battery, follow the instructions in the "Battery" section.

Use a low pressure jet of water to soften the caked dirt and mud deposited on the

painted surfaces. Once softened, sponge off mud and dirt using a car body sponge

soaked in a car body shampoo and water solution (2-4% of car shampoo in water).

Then rinse abundantly with water, and dry with a shammy cloth. For the outside of the

engine, use petroleum, a brush and clean cloths. Petrol can damage paintwork. Re-

member that any polishing with silicone wax must always be preceded by washing.
