Draining the float chamber of the carburetor
Following every wet-cleaning procedure, the float chamber of the
carburetor should be drained in order to remove any water that may have
penetrated into it. Water in the float chamber leads to engine malfunction.
Make sure you do this while the engine is cold. Close the fuel tap and place
a cloth under the carburetor which is capable of absorbing the leaking fuel.
Unscrew the plug
1
and clean it with compressed air. Then, mount the
plug together with the gasket, open fuel tap, and check the float chamber
for leaks.

Checking gear oil level
Allow the engine to warm up, park the motorcycle in a horizontal position
(jack up) and wait for 3-5 minutes to allow the oil to flow back into the
clutch housing. To check the gear oil level, remove the inspection window
screw
2
. Oil should just barely leak out at the inspection window when the
bike is in a horizontal position. If necessary, remove the plug
4
and add oil
(see technical specifications - engine) (e.g. Motorex Topspeed 4T 15W50).
NOTE: The results will not be correct if the motorcycle is not in a level posi-
tion when checking the oil.
