The pivoted rear fork: The pivoted rear fork pin is automatically lubricated with
oil from the gearbox.
Wheels (bearings) have to be lubricated with grease after removing the dust caps.
Lubricate the rear chainwheel bearing (see Part III, para 4), having first removed
the rear chainwheel.
The primary chain is totally enclosed by the L. H. crankcase cover and runs in
an oil bath. It does not require any attention. When badly worn it should be
replaced. When replacing the primary chain the clutch should be dismantled. (It
is recommended to have this operation done in a repair shop equipped with
suitable tools.)
The Secondary chain has to be serviced after every 8,000 km. (5,000 miles).
Having pulled out the chain wash it in paraffin. Let it dry and place it for about
three hours in a slightly warm lubricant. Take out the chain, let the lubricant
solidify and after removing the chaincase fit the chain. See Part III, para 3 -
Removing the chaincase, Removing the chain and Assembly.
Mag-Dynamo: After 3,000 km. (1,900 miles) remove the R. H. side crankcase
cover and with a few drops of oil lubricate the contact breaker arm pin. Care has
to be taken to ensure that no oil gets on to the contact breaker points. The felt on
the contact breaker base plate has to be soaked with grease.
The control cables (clutch, front and rear brake. throttle) should be lubricated
after every 3,000 to 5,000 km. (1,900 to 3,000 miles) with a few drops of oil.
The twist grip should be lubricated after every 3,000 km. (2,000 miles) with
grease after removing the twist grip from the handlebars. Unscrew the screw
holding the plug in the rubber grip and pull off the grip.
The speedometer drive cable should be lubricated with a few drops of oil every
3,000 km. (1,900 miles) after removal of the headlamp rim with reflector from the
headlamp (see Part III, para 10) and disconnecting the speedometer.
The steering head bearing balls should be lubricated with grease (see Part III,
para 11), at least once every 8000 km. (5,000 miles).
Note for YEZDI: The pivoted rear fork for Yezdi Model 'B' is lubricated with the aid
of a grease gun through the grease nipple provided on the LH, side of the
motorcycle- Refer; Lubrication Cheri for particulars and also Figure 10.
