CAUTION:
_
Never operate the engine with the air filter ele-
ment removed. This will allow unfiltered air to
enter, causing rapid engine wear and possible
engine damage. Additionally, operation with-
out the air filter element will affect carburetor
jetting with subsequent poor performance and
possible engine overheating.

Carburetor adjustment
The carburetor is a vital part of the engine and re-
quires very sophisticated adjustment. Most adjust-
ing should be left to a Yamaha dealer who has the
professional knowledge and experience to do so.
However, the idling speed may be performed by
the owner as a part of the usual maintenance rou-
tine.
CAUTION:
The carburetor was set at the Yamaha factory
after many tests. If the settings are disturbed
by someone without sufficient technical
knowledge, poor engine performance and
damage may result.
