Vehicle cleaning
Vehicle exterior cleaning is also part of regular maintenance. After
washing, wipe the vehicle dry. Protect painted surfaces with paint
protection agents. After cleaning, check the operation of the engine,
the lights and brakes.
CHECK AND ADJUSTMENTS
Engine Oil Level Check
Check regularly the oil level in the oil tank. Top up as required. Should
the warning light fail to extinguish after starting the engine, this means
the oil level is low and immediate topping up is required.
Caution:
Electric starter version: the warning light must come on when the
ignition key is turned to ON. If does not, the fault should be remedied.
Kick-starter and pedals version: the warning light lights few seconds
after starting the engine. If does not, the fault should be remedied.
Bowden Adjustment
Bowden brakes are adjusted by means of the bolts on the wheels
hubs. The Bowden is properly set when the brake lever free travel is
10-15 mm and the sleeve – lever gap is approx. 3 mm (Fig. 12). After
adjusting, make sure the jam nut is retightened.
