MAINTENANCE
Oil Lines
Inspect oil line condition every 1000 miles (1600 km).
Oil Filter
The oil filter is located at the side of the
oil tank. Have your dealer change the oil
filter and bleed the system annually or
every 1000 miles (1600 km). Have your
dealer inspect the return check valve as
well.
Tip: The direction of the arrows indicates the
direction of flow through the filter.
Exhaust System
Check the exhaust system for wear or damage at the intervals outlined in
the Periodic Maintenance Table beginning on page 76.

the exhaust system to cool. Never perform this procedure with the engine
running.
1. Allow the engine and exhaust system to cool completely.

or missing retaining springs or damper/support grommets.
4. Replace any damaged or missing components.
5. Clean the plastic surfaces next to the muffler with aerosol Carbure-
tor and Throttle Body Cleaner. See page 116 for the part numbers of
