Why Yamalube

YAMALUBE oil is a Genuine YAMAHA
Part born of the engineers' passion and
belief that engine oil is an important liq-
uid engine component. We form teams
of specialists in the fields of mechanical
engineering, chemistry, electronics and
track testing, and have them develop
the engine together with the oil it will
use. Yamalube oils take full advantage
of the base oil's qualities and blend in
the ideal balance of additives to make
sure the final oil clears our performance
standards. Thus, Yamalube mineral,
semisynthetic and synthetic oils have
their own distinct characters and value.
Yamaha's experience gained over
many years of research and develop-
ment into oil since the 1960's helps
make Yamalube the best choice for
your Yamaha engine.

Replacing the air filter element
and cleaning the check hose
The air filter element should be re-
placed at the intervals specified in the
periodic maintenance and lubrication
chart. Replace the air filter element
more frequently if you are riding in un-
usually wet or dusty areas. In addition,
the air filter check hose must be fre-
quently checked and cleaned if neces-
sary.
To replace the air filter element
1. Remove the seat. (See page 4-9.)
2. Remove the air filter case cover by
removing the screws.
