3-1 Precautions:

Driveline / Axle

Refer to "General Precautions in Section 00 (Page 00-1)".

Never inspect or adjust the drive chain while the engine is running.

• Do not use trichloroethylene, gasoline or such similar solvent. These fluids will damage the O-rings

of the drive chain.

• Clean the drive chain with a spray-type chain cleaner and blow dry with compressed air. If the drive

chain cannot be cleaned with a spray cleaner, it may be necessary to use a kerosine. Always follow

the chemical manufacturer's instructions on proper use, handling and storage.

• Lubricate the drive chain with a heavy weight motor oil. Wipe off any excess oil or chain lubricant.

Do not use any oil sold commercially as "drive chain oil". Such oil can damage the O-rings.

• The standard drive chain is RK GB50GSVZ3. Suzuki recommends to use this standard drive chain

as a replacement.
