Daily inspection
Prior to use your GAS GAS , it is necessary to carry out the following checks:
Is there enough fuel? Open the fuel tank plug and, moving the motorcycle la-
terally with the handlebar, you can see and hear fuel level, so that you can know
the approximate content.
Is the fuel valve open? The fuel valve (1) has three posi ti ons: open: ON (tap
down key), closed: OFF (tap horizontal key to the right side of the bike) and reser-
ve: RES (valve horizontal key to the le ft side of the bike). If the valve is in OFF po-
si ti on, the fuel can’t arrive to the carburetor, the motorcycle engine does not run,
this posi ti on is used only when the engine is stopped. If you know that there is li tt -
le fuel in the tank, you must start the use with the tap in the RES posi ti on, and go
immediately to refuel. If all is correct always be used the valve in the ON posi ti on .
NOTE: Always close the fuel valve (posi ti on OFF) when you stop the engine.
Is the engine oil level correct? See through the view fi nder If the oil level is ade-
quate, if it is necessary to add.
Is the coolant level correct? Taking the radiator fi ll cap, you can check the coo-
lant level. This should be just below the metal edge (1), if necessary, add.
DANGER
Do not open the cap when the engine is hot, risk of scalding.
