CLEANING
Keep cleaning of your machine will not only
enhance its appearance but will improve its
general performance and extend the useful
life of many components.
Before cleaning the machine: Ⅰ
a.Block off the end of the exhaust pipe
to prevent water entry. A plastic bag and
strong rubber band may be used.
b. Make sure the spark plug and all filler
caps are properly installed.
Ⅱ If the engine case is excessively greasy,
apply degreaser with a paint brush. Do not
apply degreaser to the wheel axles.
Ⅲ Rinse the dirt and degreaser off with a
garden hose. Use only enough pressure to
do the job.
Once the majority of the diⅣ rt has been hosed
off, wash all surfaces with warm water and
mild, detergent-type soap. An old toothbrush
or bottle brush is handy for hard-to-get-at
places.
Rinse the machine off immediately with Ⅴ
clean water and dry all surfaces with a
chamois, clean towel or soft absorbent cloth.
Clean the seat with a vinyl upholstery Ⅵ
cleaner to keep the cover pliable and glossy.
Ⅶ Automotive type wax may be applied to all
painted and chrome plated surfaces. Avoid
combination cleaner-waxes. Many contain
abrasives which may mar the paint or
protective finish. When finished, start the
engine and let it idle for several minutes.
