MAINTENANCE
Caution
Do not run the vehicle with insufficient / without
engine cum transmission oil as it will cause serious
damage to the engine components.
Excessive oil filling will cause oil leak and other
malfunctions. Always use TVS TRU4 FULLY
SYNTHETIC oil
only (SAE 10W 30 API-SL, JASO Ma2).
Make sure that no foreign object gets in the crankcase
while topping up the engine oil.
CLUTCH ADJUSTMENT
Clutch lever free play is one of the most important
adjustment which you may need to check in-between
services for better life of the clutch plates.
The free play of the clutch lever should be 8 ~ 13 mm
as measured at the clutch lever end at handle bar.
Adjust the clutch lever free play periodically by means
of clutch cable adjuster at arm clutch release. If the
free play is not within the specified limit.
1. Ensure that the engine is cold (engine oil at room
temperature).
2. Loosen the lock nut (2) while holding the clutch
cable adjuster (3).
8 ~ 13 mm
3. Adjust the clutch cable adjusting nut (1) 'in' or 'out'
to give sufficient play in the clutch lever.
4. After adjusting the play, hold the adjuster nut in
the same position, tighten the lock nut.
Caution
Too much or too less clutch lever free play will
damage the clutch plates, thereby affecting the
performance of the vehicle.
Clutch lever free play should be adjusted only when
the engine is cold.
