MAINTENANCE
Though the electronic ignition provides a regular running of the engine also when
the spark plug is dirty or the electrodes setting is not correct, when difficulties of
ignition occur,
check the spark plug:
clean in neat gasoline (petrol) and wire brush
(or emery cloth) the electrodes; adjust the gap 0.6 mm (0".023). Check porcelain
insulation: if cracked or broken change plug.
It is advisable not to change the type of spark plug as recommended by the
manufacturer.
Every 4000 Km (2400 mIs):
1) -
Check oil level in gear box (Fig. 16). 2) - De - coke the engine (cylinder head,
piston crown and cylinder ports, see at page 25). Ensure that not residual carbon
deposits remain inside the cylinder.
Clean the exhaust pipe using a hooked steel wire.
3) - Grease front hub through the appropriate nipples and lubricate the speedometer
drive and transmission, the brake lever and gear selector. 4) - Remove the air filter, (see
page 21), clean by agitating in an oil gasoline (petrol) bath and if possible air blast

Every 8000 Km (4800 mls):
1) -
