Valve Adjustment

See an authorized
distributor/dealer
justment.
Insufficient clearance will cause loss
of power and possibly damage the
valves. Excessive
cause noise.

Radiator

Periodically check the radiator area for
cleanliness.
Inspect radiating fins. They must be
clean, free of mud, dirt, leaves and any
other deposit that would prevent the
radiator to cool properly.
Remove as much deposits as you can
with your hands. If water is available
in proximity, try rinsing the radiating
fins.
If available, use a garden hose to rinse
the radiating fins.
WARNING
Never clean radiator with your
hands when it is hot. Let the radi-
ator cool down before cleaning.
CAUTION: Be careful not to dam-
age the radiating fins when clean-
ing. Do not use any object/tool that
could damage the fins. The fins are
purposely thin parts to allow effi-
cient cooling. WHEN HOSING, USE
LOW PRESSURE ONLY. NEVER USE
A HIGH PRESSURE WASHER.
