Maintenance Data
Operational precaution
y When remove the battery, the disconnection sequence of cable terminals shall be strictly observed.
(First disconnect the negative cable terminal, next, the positive cable terminal.)
y The model of the spark plug and the tightening torque.
y The ignition timing.
y Adjustment of headlight.
y Removal and installation of AC generator.
y The maintenance free battery requires no inspection of electrolyte level and refilling of distilled water.
y To recharge the battery, remove the battery from rack without removing ventilation caps.
y Unless in emergency, never rapid charge the battery.
y The voltage must be checked with the voltmeter while charging the battery.
y As C.D.I assembly does not require an ignition timing check. In case ignition timing is incorrect, check
C.D.I and AC generator. Verify with an ignition timing light after replacement if necessary.
