Routine Care and Maintenance,

CLEANING OR REPLACING THE AIR FILTER
• Check the air filter after 600 miles (960 kilometers); then again every 2,500
miles (4,000 kilometers) or 6 months.
• The air filter may become clogged with dirt and dust, causing a decrease in
engine power. Keep the air filter clean for optimal scooter performance.
NOTE: If you live in a coastal or arid area or drive on dirt or gravel roads, you
may need to clean or replace the air filter more frequently.
• Look on the left side of the scooter and locate the air filter cover. Using a
Phillips screwdriver, remove the filter cover screws (Fig. 2) and set aside.
• Remove the cover (Fig. 3) to expose the air filter. Gently remove the air filter;
be careful not to tear it.
• Shake the air filter vigorously to remove dust and debris. NEVER use water to
clean the air filter.
• Inspect the air filter. If it is damaged, it must be replaced. Contact your dealer
to obtain a new filter.
• If the air filter is clean and reusable, carefully press the air filter back into place.
Replace the cover and secure the filter cover screws. NOTE: Make sure the
filter and cover fit together properly before tightening the screws. Gaps may
cause the engine to run improperly.
REPLACING THE SPARK PLUG
• If the scooter is hard to start, it may be necessary to clean or replace
the spark plug or adjust the electrode gap. NOTE: Correct gap for
the spark plug is 0.024” to .032” (0.6 to 0.8 mm). Incorrect gap can
cause damage to the scooter’s engine.
• Allow the engine to cool before changing the spark plug.
• The spark plug can be accessed from the right side of the scooter
(Fig. 4).
• Pull the spark plug cover off the spark plug (Figs. 5 and 6). Use a
spark plug socket wrench to remove the spark plug from the
cylinder (Fig. 7).
• Insert the new spark plug into the cylinder and tighten firmly by
hand. Use the spark plug socket wrench and tighten another 1/2
to 3/4 turn.
• Replace the spark plug cover securely over the spark plug.

REPLACING THE FUSE
• If the electrical system is not working properly, a fuse may have blown.
• Turn the ignition OFF
.
• Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove the screws from the battery door found in
the floor board. Set aside the hardware. Open the battery door.
• Locate and open the fuse case. You will see two fuses, one is in use, and the other
is a spare.
• Inspect the fuse for broken wires.
• If you find a blown fuse, remove it. Insert a new fuse, making sure it fits snugly
into the socket. A loose connection will cause electrical problems, and possibly
overheat the fuse contacts.
• ALWAYS replace the fuse with a new fuse of the same amperage rating. DO NOT replace it with a fuse of higher
amperage rating. Extensive damage to the electrical system could occur.
• Close the fuse case and place the fuse and battery cables completely inside the battery compartment. Make sure the
terminal covers are in place. Replace the battery door and secure it with the screws.
• If the new fuse blows out immediately, contact your dealer for repairs.
