EMISSION CONTROL INFORMATION
To protect the environment in which we all live, Kawasaki has incorporated crankcase emission
(1) and exhaust emission (2) c ontrol systems (EM) in compliance with applicable regulations of
the United States Environmental Protection Agency and California Air Resources Board.
1. Crankcase Emission Control System
A sealed-type crankcase emission control system is used to eliminate blow-by gases. The
blow-by gases are led to the breather chamber through the crankcase. Then, it is led to the air
cleaner.
Oil is separated from the gases while passing through the inside of the breather chamber from
the crankcase, and then returned back to the bottom of crankcase.
2. Exhaust Emission Control System
The exhaust emission control system applied to this engine consists of a carburetor and an
ignition system having optimum ignition timing characteristics.
The carburetor has been calibrated to provide lean air/fuel mixture characteristics and opti-
mum fuel economy with a suitable air cleaner and exhaust system.
TAMPERING WITH EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM PROHIBITED
Federal law and California State law prohibits the following acts or the causing thereof: (1) the
removal or rendering inoperative by any person other than for purposes of maintenance, repair,
or replacement, of any device or element of design incorporated into any new engine for the
purpose of emission control prior to its sale or delivery to the ultimate purchaser or while it is in
use, or (2) the use of the engine after such device or element of design has been removed or
rendered inoperative by any person.
Among those acts presumed to constitute tampering are the acts listed below:
Do not tamper with the original emission related part:
Carburetor and internal parts
•
Spark plugs
•
Magneto or electronic ignition system
•
Fuel filter element
•
Air cleaner elements
•

Foreword
This manual is designed primarily for use b y
trained mechanics in a properly equipped shop.
However, it contains enough detail and basic information to make it useful to the owner who desires to perform his own basic maintenance and
repair work. A basic knowledge of mechanics,
the proper use of tools, and workshop procedures must be understood in order to carry out
maintenance and repair satisfactorily. Whenever the owner has insufficient experience or
doubts as to his ability to do the work, all adjustments, maintenance, and repair should be
carried out only by qualified mechanics.
In order to perform the work efficiently and
to avoid costly mistakes, read the text, thoroughly familiarize yourself with the procedures
before starting work, and then do the work carefully in a clean area. Whenever special tools or
equipment are specified, do not use makeshift
tools or equipment. Precision measurements
can only be made if the proper instruments are
used, and the use of substitute tools may adversely affect safe operation.
To get the longest life out of your engine:
Follow the Periodic Maintenance Chart in the
•
Service Manual.
Be alert for problems and non-scheduled
•
maintenance.
Use proper tools and genuine Kawasaki en-
•
gine parts. Genuine parts provided as spare
parts are listed in the Parts Catalog.
Follow the procedures in this manual care-
•
fully. Don’t take shortcuts.
Remember to keep complete records of main-
•
tenance and repair with dates and any new
parts installed.
How to Use This Manual
In preparing this manual, we divided the product into its major systems. These systems became the manual’s chapters. All information
for a particular system from adjustment through
disassembly and inspection is located in a single chapter.
The Quick Reference Guide shows you all
of the product’s system and assists in locating
their chapters. Each chapter in turn has its own
comprehensive Table of Contents.
The Periodic Maintenance Chart is located
in the General Information chapter. The chart
gives a time schedule for required maintenance
operations.
If you want spark plug information, for example, go to the Periodic Maintenance Chart first.
The chart tells you how frequently to clean and
gap the plug. Next, use the Quick Reference
Guide to locate the Electrical System chapter.
Then, use the Table of Contents on the first
page of the chapter to find the Spark Plug section.
Whenever you see these WARNING and
CAUTION symbols, heed their instructions!
Always follow safe operating and maintenance
practices.
WARNING
This warning symbol identifies special
instructions or procedures which, if not
correctly followed, could result in per-
sonal injury, or loss of life.
CAUTION
This caution symbol identifies special
instructions or procedures which, if not
strictly observed, could result in dam-
age to or destruction of equipment.
This manual contains four more symbols (in
addition to WARNING and CAUTION) which will
help you distinguish different types of information.
NOTE
This note symbol indicates points of par-
○
ticular interest for more efficient and con -
venient operation.
Indicates a procedural step or work to be
•
done.
Indicates a procedural sub-step or how to do
○
the work of the procedural step it follows. It
also precedes the text of a WARNING, CAU-
TION, or NOTE.
Indicates a conditional step or what action to
take based on the results of the test or inspec-
tion in the procedural step or sub-step it fol-
lows.
In most chapters an exploded view illustration
of the system components follows the Table of
Contents. In these illustrations you will find the
instructions indicating which parts require specified tightening torque, oil, grease or a locking
agent during assembly.

1-2 GENERAL INFORMATION
Before Servicing
Before starting to service the engine, carefully read the applicable section to eliminate unnecessary
work. Photographs, diagrams, notes, cautions, warnings, and detailed descriptions have been included wherever necessary. Nevertheless, even a detailed account has limitations, a certain amount
of basic knowledge is required for successful work.
Especially note the following:
(1) Dirt
Before removal and disassembly, clean the engine. Any dirt entering the engine, carburetor, or
other parts, will work as an abrasive and shorten the life of engine. For the same reason, before
installing a new part, clean off any dust or metal filings.
(2) Battery Ground
Remove the ground (–) lead from the battery before performing any disassembly operations on
the equipment. This prevents:
(a)the possibility of accidentally turning the engine over while partially disassembled.
(b)sparks at electrical connections which will occur when they are disconnected.
(c) damage to electrical parts.
(3) Tightening Sequence
Generally, when installing a part with several bolts, nuts, or screws, start them all in their holes
and tighten them to a snug fit. Then tighten them evenly, in a staggered sequence. This is to
avoid distortion of the part and/or causing gas or oil leakage. Conversely when loosening the
bolts, nuts, or screws, first loosen all of them by about a quarter of a turn and then remove them.
Where there is a tightening sequence indication in this Service Manual, the bolts, nuts, or screws
must be tightened in the order and method indicated.
(4) Torque
When torque values are given in this Service Manual, use them. Either too little or too much
torque may lead to serious damage. Use a good quality, reliable torque wrench.
(5) Force
Common sense should dictate how much force is necessary in assembly and disassembly. If
a part seems especially difficult to remove or install, stop and examine what may be causing the
problem. Whenever tapping is necessary, tap lightly using a wooden or plastic-faced mallet. Use
an impact driver for screws (particularly for the removal of screws held by a locking agent) in order
to avoid damaging the heads.
(6) Edges
Watch for sharp edges, especially during major engine disassembly and assembly. Protect your
hands with gloves or a piece of thick cloth when lifting the engine or turning it over.
(7) High-Flash Point Solvent
A high-flash point solvent is recommended to reduce fire danger. A commercial solvent commonly available in North America is Standard solvent (generic name). Always follow manufacturer
and container directions regarding the use of any solvent.
(8) Gasket, O-Ring
Do not reuse a gasket or O-ring once it has been in service. The mating surfaces around the
gasket should be free of foreign material and perfectly smooth to avoid oil or compression leaks.
(9) Liquid Gasket, Non-Permanent Locking Agent
Follow manufacturer’s directions for cleaning and preparing surfaces where these compounds
will be used. Apply sparingly. Excessive amounts may block engine oil passages and cause
serious damage. An example of a non-permanent locking agent commonly available in North
America is Loctite Lock’n Seal (Blue).
(10)Press
A part installed using a press or driver, such as a journal, should first be coated with oil on its
outer or inner circumference so that it will go into place smoothly.
(11) Ball Bearing
When installing a ball bearing, the bearing race which is affected by friction should be pushed
by a suitable driver. This prevents severe stress on the balls and races, and prevents races and
balls from being dented. Press a ball bearing until it stops at the stop in the hole or o n the shaft.
(12)Oil Seal and Grease Seal
Replace any oil or grease seals that were removed with new ones, as removal generally damages seals.
GENERAL INFORMATION 1-3
Before Servicing
When pressing in a seal which has manufacturer’s marks, press it in with the marks facing out.
Seals should be pressed into place using a suitable driver, which contacts evenly with the side of
seal, until the face of the seal is even with the end of the hole.
(13)Seal Guide
A seal guide is required for certain oil or grease seals during installation to avoid damage to
the seal lips. Before a shaft passes through a seal, apply a little oil, preferably high temperature
grease on the lips to reduce rubber to metal friction.
(14)Circlip, Retaining Ring
Replace any circlips and retaining rings that were removed with new ones, as removal weakens
and deforms them. When installing circlips and retaining rings, take care to compress or expand
them only enough to install them and no more.
(15)Cotter Pin
Replace any cotter pins that were removed with new ones, as removal deforms and breaks
them.
(16)Lubrication
Engine wear is generally at its maximum while the engine is warming up and before all the
rubbing surfaces have an adequate lubricative film. During assembly, oil or grease (whichever
is more suitable) should be applied to any rubbing surface which has lost its lubricative film. Old
grease and dirty o il should be cleaned off. Deteriorated grease has lost its lubricative quality and
may contain abrasive foreign particles.
Don’t use just any oil or grease. Some oils and greases in particular should be used only in
certain applications and may be harmful if used in an application for which they are not intended.
This manual makes reference to molybdenum disulfide grease (MoS2) in the assembly of certain
engine parts. Always check manufacturer recommendations before using such special lubricants.
(17)Electrical Wires
All the electrical wires are either single-color or two-color and, with only a few exceptions, must
be connected to wires of the same color. On any of the two-color wires there is a greater amount
of one color and a lesser amount of a second color, so a two-color wire is identified by first the
primary color and then the secondary color. For example, a yellow wire with thin red stripes is
referred to as a “yellow/red” wire; it would be a “red/yellow” wire if the colors were reversed to
make red the main color.
(18)Replacement Parts
When there is a replacement instruction, replace these parts with new ones every time they are
removed. There replacement parts will be damaged or lose their original function once removed.
(19)Inspection
When parts have been disassembled, visually inspect these parts for the following conditions
or other damage. If there is any doubt as to the condition of them, replace them with new ones.
Abrasion
Bent Dent Scratch Wear
Color change Deterioration Seizure
