1-1 Safety

GASOLINE

Gasoline is extremely flammable and is explosive under certain conditio n.
Do not smoke or allow sparks or flames in your work area.

● CARBON MONOXIDE

Never run the engine in a closed area. The exhaust contains poisonous carbon
monoxide gas that may cause loss of consciousness and lead to death.

● BATTERY ELECTROLYTE

The battery electrolyte contains sulfuric acid. Protect your eyes, skin and
clothing. If you contact it, flush thoroughly with water and call a doctor if electrolyte
gets in your eyes.

● HOT PARTS

Engine and exhaust pipe become very hot and remain hot for one hour after the
engine is run. Wear insulated gloves before handling these parts.

● USED ENGINE/GEAR OIL

Used engine oil and gear oil may cause skin disease if repeatedly contact with
the skin for long periods.
Keep out of reach of children.

2-6 Air Cleaner

Please remove the four hooks, and then disassemble
two screws inside the air cleaner case.
Pull out the air filter element from the air cleaner case.
Washing the element in non-flammable solvent, squeeze
out the solvent thoroughly.
Let it dry.
Soak the filter element in gear oil and then squeeze
out the excess oil.
Install the every component into air cleaner in the reverse order of
removal.

Note: for more detail please check chapter 5-10

2-7 Spark Plug

This spark plug is located at the front of the engine.
Disconnect the spark plug cap and unscrew the spark plug.
Check the condition of spark plug electrodes wear.

19

Change a new spark plug if the electrodes and insulator tip appear unusually fouled or burned.
Discard the spark plug if there is apparent wear or if the insulator is cracked or chipped.
The spark plug gap shall keep in 0.8mm
With the sealing washer attached, thread the spark plug in by hand to prevent crosses threading.
Tighten the spark plug with 1.0~1.2kgf-m

2-8 Idle Speed

Connect an engine speed meter.
Warm up the engine, 10 minutes are enough.
Turn the idle-speed adjust screw on the carburetor to obtain the idle speed. “Turn in” (clockwise) will
get higher speed. “Turn out” (counter clockwise) will get lower speed.

IDLE SPEED: 1700±100 rpm

2-9 Drive Chain

Stopping the ATV and shift the transmission into neutral(N) .

Adjust the chain slack.
Loosen the lock nuts and turn drive chain adjusting nuts
until get the correct slack.
Tighten the axle holder bolts.

Torque = 90N.m (65 lbf.ft)

When the drive chain becomes very dirty, it should be removed, cleaned and lubricated by specify lubricator.
Please use special chain oil to lubricate the drive chain.
Clean the drive chain with kerosene and wipe it dry.
Inspect the drive chain for any possible wearing or damaging.
Replace the chain, if it is worn excessively or damaged.

Inspect the sprocket teeth, if it is excessive wearing or damaging,
please replace it.

20

2-10 Brake System

Inspect the front brake lever and cable for excessive play or other
damage.
Replace or repair if necessary.
Measure the brake lever free play at the end of the brake lever trip.

Front Brake lever free play is 15-25 mm.

Turn the parking brake to the left side is “parking off”, while
turn to right side is “parking on”. As you found out the
parking brake which has been decreased its brake ability, you
might screw the adjustable nut to modify the clearance of
brake shoe to the correct position. Also, another method of
adjustment of parking brake, please refer to next page.

Inspect the rear brake lever and cable for excessive
play or other damage.
Replace or repair if necessary.
Measure the rear brake lever free play at the
end of the lever trip.

Rear Brake lever free play is 15-25 mm.

NOTE:

y The second method to adjust brake level is under the driver

seat and rear brake component.

y In order to avoid a pre-load occurred between brake disk and

lining. After all adjusting of brake system are completed,
please check the small clearance between brake disk and
lining.

Loosen the adjustable nut near the rear brake caliper. Screw the
adjustable bolt by hand with C.W. turn to the end, then back to a
quarter turn. Tighten the nut to complete the parking brake
adjustment.

Also, as you fount out the brake ability which is a bit insufficient,
you can screw the adjustable nut of parking Brake

.

2-11 Wheels And Tires

Inspect the tire surfaces for cuts, nails or other sharp objects.
Check the each tire surface at cold tire condition.

*The standard of tire pressure is 12(0.8) psi ( kgf/cm2)

2-12 Steering Shaft Holder Bushing

Remove the front fender first.
Remove the steering shaft holder and check the steering shaft bushing
for wears or damage.
If the bushing is worn or damaged, please change a new one.
Grease the steering shaft bushing and install the parts
in the reverse order of removal.

Torque: steering shaft holder bolt: 33 N.m (24 lbf.ft)

2-13 Toe-In

Keep the vehicle on level ground and the front wheels facing straight
ahead.
Mark the centers of the tires to indicate the axle center height.
Measure the distance between the marks.

Carefully to move the vehicle back, let the wheels turn 180 degree,
so the marks on the tires are aligned with the axle center height.
Measure the distance between the marks.
Calculate the difference in the front and rear measurements.

Toe-in: 5±10mm

23

If the toe-in is out of standard, adjust it by changing
the length of the tie-rods equally by turning the tie-rod
while holding the ball joint.
Tighten the lock nuts.

3-2 Engine Removal

3.1 General Information

ENGINE SHALL BE REMOVED IN THE CONDITIONS OF NECESSARY REPAIRMENT OR
ADJUSTMENT TO THE TRANSMISSION AND COMBUSTION SYSTEM ONLY

3-2 Engine Removal

Before removing engine, you need to remove all of components such as seat, front and back fender,
fuel tube, exhaust pipe, carburetor cable and drive chain…etc. You can then see three hanger bolts which have
screwed on engine.

Loosen these three hanger bolts. You have succeeded to remove this engine.

There are some pictures to describe main step of removing engine.

Disconnect the wire connectors. There are three connectors for
carburetor auto-choke, starter motor and generator respectively.

Remove the drive chain cover.
Remove the drive chain retaining clip and master link,
and remove the drive chain.
