SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Do not run the engine unless instructed
to do so.
•
Read the instruction before you begin and
make sure you have the tools and skills
required.
Remember that your Authorised Hero
MotoCorp workshop knows your vehicle best
and is fully equipped to maintain and repair it.
To ensure best quality and reliability, it is
recommended to use Hero MotoCorp
genuine parts for repair and replacement.
•
Make sure the engine is “OFF” before you
begin any maintenance or repair. This will
help to eliminate several potential hazards:
•
Carbon monoxide poisoning from
engine exhaust.
•
Burns from hot parts.
•
Injury from moving parts.
Be sure there is adequate ventilation
whenever you operate the engine.
•
To help prevent the vehicle from falling
over, park it on a firm, level surface on the
main stand.
•
To reduce the possibility of a fire or
explosion, be careful when working around
petrol or batteries. Use only nonflammable
solvent not petrol, to clean parts. Keep ,
cigarettes, sparks and flames away from the
battery and all fuel-related parts.
Let the engine and exhaust system cool
before touching.
WARNING
!!
•
Failure to follow maintenance instructions
and precautions properly can seriously
injure you.
•
Always follow the procedures and precautions
in this owner's manual.
This section includes instructions on some
important maintenance tasks. You can
perform some of these tasks with the tools
provided (if you have basic mechanical skills).
Maintenance safety
Other tasks that are more difficult and require
special tools are best performed by
professionals. It is recommended that wheel
removal should normally be handled by a Hero
MotoCorp authorised workshop.
However, we cannot warn you of every
conceivable hazard that can arise in
performing maintenance. Only you can decide
whether or not you should perform a given
task.
You will come across some of the most
important safety precautions in the following
pages of this manual.
