Inspect and clean or replace the pre-cleaner and air filter. Clean the air box and drain the sediment tube.
Inspect and clean or replace the breather filter.
Inspect the following fluid levels and change if necessary: front gear case; transmission; brake fluid (change
every two years or as required if fluid looks dark or contaminated).
Remove the spark plug and add 2 3 tablespoons of 4 Synthetic 0W40 engine oil. To access the plug hole, use
a section of clear 1/4 hose and a small plastic squeeze bottle filled with the pre-measured amount of oil.
Do this carefully! If you miss the plug hole, oil will drain from the spark plug cavity into the hole at
the front of the cylinder head, and appear to be an oil leak. Install the spark plug and pull the
engine over slowly with the recoil starter. Oil will be forced in and around the piston rings and ring
lands, coating the cylinder with a protective film of fresh oil.
