WARNING
!!
•
Failure to follow maintenance instructions and
precautions properly can seriously injure you.
•
Always follow the procedures and precautions
in this owner's manual.
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.
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).
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. You will
come across some of the most important
safety precautions in the following pages of
this manual.
Maintenance safety
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Be sure there is adequate ventilation
whenever you operate the engine.
Do not run the engine unless instructed
to do so.
•
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.
•
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.
To ensure best quality and reliability, it is
recommended to use Hero MotoCorp
genuine parts for repair and replacement.
Let the engine and exhaust system cool
before touching.
•
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 help prevent the vehicle from falling
over, park it on a firm, level surface on the
main stand.
