1. Place the vehicle on centre stand on a flat surface.
Remove the gauge oil level, wipe it clean and insert the
gauge oil level in its hole without threading in.
2. Check the oil level. The oil level should be between the
minimum and maximum level markings as shown in
the figure. If the oil is less than the minimum level, add
recommended oil upto the maximum level mark.
CLUTCH ADJUSTMENT
Clutch lever free play is one of the most important
adjustments, which you may need to check in between
services for better life of the clutch plates.
The free play of the clutch should be 10 - 15 mm, as
measured at the clutch lever end, before the clutch begins
to disengage.
Adjust the clutch lever free play periodically by means of
clutch cable adjuster at arm clutch release.
If you find the play is more or less, adjust in the following
way:
1. Ensure that the engine is cold.
2. Loosen the lock nut (2) holding the clutch cable
adjuster (3) adjust the clutch cable adjusting nut (1) ‘in’
or ‘out’ to give sufficient play in the clutch cable.
3. After adjusting the play, holding the adjuster nut in the
same position lock the lock nut.
Maximum
Minimum
If the vehicle is driven with less engine cum transmission
oil, engine components will be severely damaged. Check
the oil level before starting to avoid costly damage. Always
use recommended oil only.
Too much or too less clutch lever free play will damage the
clutch plates, thereby affecting the performance of the
vehicle. clutch lever free play should be adjusted only when
the engine is cold.
