insert it into the guide tube again (Do not rotate it.)

(Check cylinder, crankcase…etc for leakage.)

If any problem founded during routine inspection, correct the problem before using the
motorcycle again, have your motorcycle checked and repaired by the “SYM dealer or
authorized service personnel” if necessary.
