CLEANING AND STORAGE
Cleaning
Frequent, thorough cleaning of your machine will
not only enhance its appearance but will improve
its general performance and extend the useful life
of many components.
1. Before cleaning the machine.
a. Block off the end of the exhaust pipe to prevent
water entry. A plastic bag and strong rubber band
may be used.
b. Assure the spark plug and all filler caps are
correctly installed.
2. If the engine case is extremely greasy, apply
degreaser with a paintbrush. Do not apply degreaser
to the wheel axles.
3. Rinse the dirt and degreaser off with a garden
hose. Use only sufficient pressure to do the job.
4. Once the majority of the dirt has been hosed off,
wash all surfaces with warm water and mild, de-
tergent-type soap. An old tooth-brush or bottle brush
is handy for hard-to-get-at places.
5. Rinse the machine off immediately with clean
water and dry all surfaces with a chamois, clean
towel or cloth.
6. Clean the seat with a vinyl upholstery cleaner to
keep the cover pliable and glossy.
7. Automotive type wax may be applied to all pain-
ed and chrome plated surfaces. Avoid combina-
tion cleaner-waxes. Many contain abrasives
which may mar the paint or protective finish. When
finished, start the engine and let it idle for several
minutes.
Storage
Long term storage (60 days or more) of your machine
will request some protective procedures to guard
against deterioration. After completely cleaning the
machine, prepare for storage as follows:
1. Fill the fuel tank with fresh fuel.
2. Remove the spark plug, pour about one table-
spoon of SAE 10W30 or 20W40 motor oil in the
spark plug hole and reinstall the spark plug. Ground
the spark plug wire and turn the engine over several
times to coat the cylinder wall with oil.
3. Lubricate all control cables.
4.Block up the frame to raise all wheels off the
ground.
5. Tie a plastic bag over the exhaust pipe outlet to
prevent moisture from entering.
