PERIODIC MAINTENANCE AND MINOR REPAIR

6-10

NOTE:

If a torque wrench is not available when

installing a spark plug, a good estimate

of the correct torque is 1/4–1/2 turn

past finger tight. However, the spark

plug should be tightened to the speci-

fied torque as soon as possible.

4. Install the spark plug cap.

5. Place the spark plug cover in the

original position.

Canister (for California only)

This model is equipped with a canister

to prevent the discharging of fuel vapor

into the atmosphere.

● Check each hose connection.

● Check each hose and canister for

cracks or damage. Replace if dam-

aged.

● Make sure the vent hose is not

blocked. Clean it if necessary.

EAU19822

Engine oil

The engine oil level should be checked

before each ride. In addition, the oil

must be changed and the oil filter ele-

ment replaced at the intervals specified

in the periodic maintenance and lubri-

cation chart.

To check the engine oil level

1. Place the vehicle on a level sur-

face and hold it in an upright posi-

tion.

NOTE:

Make sure that the vehicle is positioned

straight up when checking the oil level.

A slight tilt to the side can result in a

false reading.

2. Start the engine, warm it up for

several minutes, and then turn it

off.

3. Wait a few minutes until the oil set-

tles, and then check the oil level

through the check window located

at the bottom-left side of the crank-

case.
