COGUAR WORKSHOP MANUAL

This manual was written by Piaggio-Gilera for use in Piaggio-Gilera dealers and authorised servicing workshops. It is assumed that the person using this manual for maintenance and repairs on Piaggio-Gilera

Coguar models has a basic knowledge of mechanical principles and procedures concerning vehicle repair techniques.

Information concerning important variations in vehicle characteristics or in certain repair operations will be communicated as an update to this manual.

However, it is not possible to carry out a completely satisfactory job without the necessary systems and tools. Therefore, please consult the pages in this manual dealing with special tools and the special equipment catalogue.

NOTE This indicates a note that gives important information to make the procedure clearer and easier to carry out.

This indicates special procedures that are to be followed

Important note to avoid damaging the vehicle.

 

This indicates certain precautions that are to be taken to avoid

injuries to the person repairing the vehicle.

 

NOTE - For all that concerns the specific operations on the Coguar engine, see the “SERVICE STATION MANUAL 4T SPEED 125cc ENGINE.”

GENERAL INFORMATION

Safety regulations

If it is necessary to work on the vehicle with the engine running, make sure that the environment is well ventilated, if necessary using a suitable exhaust system. Never run the engine in closed places since the exhaust gasses are toxic.

The battery electrolyte contains sulphuric acid. Protect your eyes, clothes and skin. Sulphuric acid is highly corrosive; if it comes into contact with the eyes or skin, wash with plenty of water and go immediately to a Doctor.

The battery produces hydrogen which can be highly explosive. Do not smoke and avoid naked flames and sparks near the battery, especially when recharging it.

Petrol is very inflammable and under some conditions can explode. Do not smoke in the work area and keep clear of naked flames and sparks.

Clean the brake shoes, drums and pads in well ventilated areas directing the compressed air jet to avoid taking in the dust caused by the wear on the shoes. Although the brake lining does not contain asbestos, inhalation of the dust is still harmful.

Maintenance rules

Use original PIAGGIO-GILERA spare parts and lubricants recommended by the manufacturer. Spare parts other than originals or that do not conform can damage the vehicle.

Only use the special tools designed for this vehicle.

Always use new seals, seal rings and split pins when assembling.

After disassembly, clean the components with non flammable solvent. Lubricate all working surfaces before reassembling, except for the bevel pairs.

After reassembly, check that all the components have been installed correctly and operate perfectly.

For disassembly, overhaul and reassembly operations, only use tools with metric measurements. The metric screws, nuts and bolts are not interchangeable with English measurement couplings. The use of unsuitable tools or couplings could damage the vehicle.

When working on the vehicle electrical system, check the correct assembly of the electrical connections, especially those connecting the to earth and the battery.

CYLINDER HEAD AND VALVES

Head related problems generally have a considerable influence of engine performance. Such problems can be diagnosed by checking compression either with a sound sensor or a stethoscope to identify any incorrect noise.

If the low ratio performance is poor, check whether there is white smoke in the crankcase breather tube. The white smoke is the symptom of a seized segment.
