6. Reinstall the oil filler cap/dipstick and close the engine cover.
HIGH ALTITUDE
• At high altitude, the standard carburetor air-fuel mixture will be excessively rich. Performance
will decrease, and fuel consumption will increase.
• High altitude performance can be improved by installing a smaller diameter main fuel jet in the
carburetor. If you always operate the machine at altitudes higher than 1600 m above sea level,
have your authorized dealer install the high altitude main jet.
• This machine will not perform well at high altitudes without proper adjustment. Contact
a authorized service center for adjustment information.
