• Apply SAE 90 grade oil on the hanger side
of the entire length of the chain using an oil
can.
• Rotate the rear wheel backwards to expose
the next section of the drive chain and
repeat second step until all of the drive chain
is cleaned.
• Let the spray dry for about five minutes.
• Wait for 7-10 minutes for penetration of
lubricant inside the bush and roller wipe the
excessive lubricant from the chain and
nearby parts using a clean rag.
• To remove stubborn dirt, scrub the rollers
and side plates with soft nylon brush.
Cleaning and Lubrication
Lubricate every 700 km or sooner if the
chain appears dry.
• Spray a commercially available chain
cleaner for cleaning the drive chain over its
entire length.
• Turn the engine off, park the vehicle on its
main stand and shift the transmission into
neutral. Open side stand to facilitate
cleaning.
Ensure that the chain cleaner and lubricant used
is the one recommended for use on an
O-ring chain, otherwise the O-rings may
deteriorate, fail and lose their sealing properties.
NOTE
Excessive lubricant if not wiped off, will aid in
accumulation of dust, sand and dirt on the
drive chain, increasing its wear and will also
be sprayed on the vehicle as well due to chain
movement.
NOTE
• Align the chain adjuster index mark (5) with
the rear edge (6) of the adjusting slots on
both sides of the swingarm equally.
