Read OWNER’S MANUAL before operating.
To protect the environment in which we all live, Kawasaki has incorporated crankcase emission
(1) and exhaust emission (2) control 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 optimum fuel economy with a suitable air cleaner and exhaust system.
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 plug
•Magneto or electronic ignition system
•Fuel filter element
•Air cleaner elements
•Crankcase
•Cylinder head
•Breather chamber and internal parts
•Intake pipe and tube
This manual is designed primarily for use by 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 engine parts. Genuine parts provided as spare parts are listed in the Parts Catalog.
•Follow the procedures in this manual carefully. Don’t take shortcuts.
•Remember to keep complete records of maintenance and repair with dates and any new parts installed.
How to Use This Manual
In this manual, the product is divided into its major systems and these systems make up the manual’s chapters. 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.
For example, if you want ignition coil information, 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 Ignition coil 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 personal injury, or loss of life.
CAUTION
This caution symbol identifies special instructions or procedures which, if not strictly observed, could result in damage 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 particular interest for more efficient and convenient operation.
•Indicatesdone. a procedural step or work to be
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, CAUTION, or NOTE.
Indicates a conditional step or what action to take based on the results of the test or inspection in the procedural step or sub-step it follows.
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.
(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) 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.
(3) 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.
(4) 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.
(5) 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.
(6) 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.
(7) 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 matter and perfectly smooth to avoid oil or compression leaks.
(8) 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.
(9) Oil Seal and Grease Seal
Replace any oil or grease seals that were removed with new ones, as removal generally damages seals.
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.
(10)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.
(11)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
GENERAL INFORMATION 1-3
Before Servicing
grease and dirty oil 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.
(12)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.
(13)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.
(14)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.

Crack |
Hardening |
Warp |

Periodic Maintenance Chart
To ensure satisfactory operation over an extended period of time, any engine requires normal maintenance regular intervals. The Periodic Maintenance Chart below shows periodic inspection and maintenance items and suitable intervals. The bullet mark (•) designates that the corresponding item should be performed at that interval.
Some adjustments require the use of special tools or other equipment. An electronic tachometer will facilitate setting idle and running speeds.

If the manufacturer’s instructions are not available, use the following procedure.
Seat Cutter Operating Cares:
1.This valve seat cutter is designed only for valve seat repair. Therefore the cutter must not be used for other purposes.
2.Do not drop or hit the valve seat cutter, or the diamond particles may fall off.
3.Do not fail to apply engine oil to the valve seat cutter before grinding the seat surface. Also wash off ground particles sticking to the cutter with washing oil.
NOTE
Do not use a wire brush to remove the metal particles from the cutter. It will take off the diamond particles.
4.Setting the valve seat cutter holder [A] in position, operate the cutter [B] with one hand [C]. Do not apply too much force to the diamond portion.
NOTE
Prior to grinding, apply oil to the cutter, and during the operation wash off any ground particles sticking to the cutter with washing oil.
5.After use wash the cutter with washing oil and apply a thin layer of engine oil before storing.

Operating Procedures:
•Clean the seat area carefully.
•Recondition the valve seats with the valve seat cutters (45, 32) and lap the valves.
•Check the seats for good contact all the way around with machinist’s dye.
•Measure the seat width [A]. If it is more than the STD width, the seating surface should be refaced.
•If the valve seating pattern is not correct, repair the seat.
•Coat the seat with machinist’s dye.
•Fit a 45 seat cutter [A] to the holder and slide it into the valve guide.
Resurface the valve seat with a 45 cutter, removing only enough material to produce a smooth and concentric seat.
CAUTION
Do not grind the seat too much. Overgrinding will reduce valve clearance by sinking the valve into the head. If the valve sinks too far into the head, it will be impossible to adjust the clearance, and the cylinder head must be replaced. Do not turn the cutter counterclockwise or drop it against the seat, or it will be dulled.
2-12 PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
Periodic Maintenance Procedures
•Use a 32 seat cutter [A] to narrow the seat width to the STD width.
Turn the seat cutter one turn at a time while pressing down very lightly. Check the seat width after each turn.
CAUTION
The 32 cutter removes material very quickly. Check the seat width frequently to prevent over grinding.
NOTE
Keep the seat width as close as possible to the STD width.
•Make a light pass with the 45 cutter to remove any possible burrs at the edge of the seat.
•After resurfacing the seat, inspect for even valve seating.
Apply a machinist’s dye to the valve face, insert the valve, and snap it closed against the seat several times. The valve surface should show good contact all the way around. Be sure the valve seat is centered on the valve face. The position of the valve in the seat is evident after lapping the valve.
If the seat does not make proper contact, lap the valve into seat with a vacuum cap tool.
•Coat the face of valve sparingly with a fine lapping compound.
•Use the vacuum cup tool [A], to grip top of the valve [B]. Rotate the valve in a circular motion to lap the valve to the seat.
•Lift the valve slightly from the seat every 8 to 10 strokes, continue lapping operation until a uniform ring appears around entire surface of the valve face.
•When lapping is completed, wash all parts in solvent to remove lapping compound. Dry the parts thoroughly.
•Note the position of the lapping mark on the valve face. The lapping mark should appear on or near the center of the valve face.
•When the engine is assembled, be sure to adjust the valve clearances (see Valve Clearance Adjustment).
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE 2-13
Periodic Maintenance Procedures
•Place the engine on a level surface.
•Remove the oil filler cap [A] and wipe its dipstick [B] with a clean cloth.
•Insert the dipstick into gauge hole [C] without screwing it in, then check the oil Level.
•The oil level should be the operating range [A] (grid area) on the dipstick.
If the oil level is below “ADD” range [B], add enough engine oil to bring oil level to the operating range.
CAUTION
Do not add more oil above the operating range. Excess oil will cause a smoking condition.
Use the same type and make of oil that is already in the engine.
NOTE
If the engine oil type and make are unknown, use any brand of the specified oil to top up the level in preference to running the engine with the oil level low. Then at your earliest convenience, change the oil completely.
If the oil level is above “FULL” range [C], drain the excess oil by loosening the drain plug.
•Change the oil after first 8 hours of operation. Thereafter change oil every 100 hours.
•Start and warm up the engine so the oil will drain easily. Stop the engine.
•Place the engine on a level surface.
•Place a suitable container under the engine.
•Remove the drain plug [A] and drain the oil.
WARNING
Be careful of hot oil when drained. It may be hot enough to burn you severely.
•Check the washer [B] at the drain plug for damage. Replace the washer with a new one if it is damaged.
•Install the drain plug with the washer and tighten it.
