that such factors as weather, terrain, geographical location, and individual usage will alter the required
maintenance and lubrication intervals. If you are a doubt as to what intervals to follow in maintaining
and lubricating your machine, consult your Yamaha dealer.
• Periodic inspection is essential in making full use of the machine performance. The service life of the
