Warning
Danger of burns
Some vehicle components become very hot when the vehicle is operated.

Do not touch any parts such as the exhaust system, radiator, engine, shock absorber, or brake system before the vehicle
parts have cooled down.
–
Let the vehicle parts cool down before you perform any work on the vehicle.
Only operate the vehicle when it is in perfect technical condition, in accordance with its intended use and in a safe and environmen-
tally compatible manner.
The vehicle should only be used by trained persons.

Adhere to the information and warning labels on the vehicle.
2.6
Protective clothing
Warning
Risk of injury
Missing or poor protective clothing presents an increased safety risk.
–
Ensure your child wears appropriate protective clothing such as helmet, boots, gloves as well as trousers and a jacket with
protectors on all rides.
–
Alway use protective clothing for your child that is in good condition and meets the legal requirements.

2.7
Work rules
Special tools are necessary for certain tasks. The tools are not contained in the vehicle but can be ordered under the number in paren-
theses. E.g.: bearing puller (15112017000)
During assembly, non-reusable parts (e.g. self-locking screws and nuts, seals and seal rings, O-rings, pins, lock washers) must be
replaced by new parts.
In some instances, a thread locker (e.g.
Loctite
®
) is required. The manufacturer instructions for use must be followed.
After disassembly, clean the parts that are to be reused and check them for damage and wear. Change damaged or worn parts.
After you complete the repair or service work, check the operating safety of the vehicle.
2.8
Environment
If you use your motorcycle responsibly, you can ensure that problems and conflicts do not occur. To protect the future of the motorcy-
cle sport, make sure that you use your motorcycle legally, display environmental consciousness, and respect the rights of others.
When disposing of used oil, other operating and auxiliary fluids, and used components, comply with the laws and regulations of the
respective country.
Because motorcycles are not subject to the EU regulations governing the disposal of used vehicles, there are no legal regulations that
pertain to the disposal of an end-of-life motorcycle. Your authorized KTM dealer will be glad to advise you.
2.9
Owner's Manual
It is important that you read this Owner's Manual carefully and completely before making your first trip. The Owner's Manual contains
useful information and many tips on how to operate, handle, and maintain your motorcycle. Only then will you find out how to cus-
tomize the vehicle ideally for your own use and how you can protect yourself from injury.
Keep the Owner's Manual in an accessible place to enable you to refer to it as needed.
If you would like to know more about the vehicle or have questions on the material you read, please contact an authorized KTM dealer.
The Owner's Manual is an important component of the vehicle and should be handed over to the new owner if the vehicle is sold.
