OPERATION
PRI - Engine oil level inspection
NOTE: Park your scooter on the main stand, on level ground.
1. Unscrew the dip stick 1, remove it and wipe it with a clean
cloth
2. Re-insert the dip stick, slide it down until the threaded part
touches the engine case, but do not thread it into the case.
3. Remove the dip stick and visually note the oil level on the
stick. The engine oil level should be above the "L" mark but
not higher than the "F" mark. Add or remove oil as required.
Do not overfill the engine with oil. Overfilling the en-
gine can cause oil leaks and/or oil contamination of
the air filter element. Always make sure the oil level is
above the "L" mark but not higher than the "F" mark.

Use extreme caution when performing the oil level in-
spection or any other checks if the scooter's engine
has been recently run. The engine oil, engine case and
muffler can become very hot creating a burn hazard.
PRI - Brake inspection
Your scooter requires the proper brake lever free-play so
the brakes will be responsive and will not drag, causing pre-
mature wear to the brake pads.
The free-play is the measured distance between the brake
lever at rest and a fully applied brake.
0.4 - 0.6 in (10 - 20 mm)
1. Measure the free-play and the brake lever end (0.4 - 0.6 in
(10 - 20 mm).
2. Use the cable adjuster on each brake lever perch for minor
free play adjustment. For major adjustment, see the main-
tenance section of this Owner's Manual.
