SERVICE PRECAUTIONS
n Make sure to install new gaskets, O-rings,
circlips, cotter pins, etc. when reassembling.
n When tightening bolts or nuts, begin with
larger-diameter to smaller ones at several
times, and tighten to the specified torque
diagonally.
n Use genuine parts and lubricants.
n When servicing the motorcycle, be sure to
use special tools for removal and installation.
n After disassembly, clean removed parts.
Lubricate sliding surfaces with engine oil
before reassembly.

MX’er SYSTEM
n Apply or add designated greases and
lubricants to the specified lubrication points.
n After reassembly, check all parts for proper
tightening and operation.
n When two persons work together, pay
attention to the mutual working safety.
n Disconnect the battery negative (-) terminal
before operation.
n When using a spanner or other tools, make
sure not to damage the motorcycle surface.
n After operation, check all connecting points,
fasteners, and lines for proper connection
and installation.
n When connecting the battery, the positive (+)
terminal must be connected first.
n After connection, apply grease to the battery
terminals.
n Terminal caps shall be installed securely.

MX’er SYSTEM
n If the fuse is burned out, find the cause and
repair it. Replace it with a new one
according to the specified capacity.
n After operation, terminal caps shall be
installed securely.
n When taking out the connector, the lock on
the connector shall be released before
operation.
n Hold the connector body when connecting
or disconnecting it.
n Do not pull the connector wire.
n Check if any connector terminal is bending,
protruding or loose.

MX’er SYSTEM
n The connector shall be inserted
completely.
n If the double connector has a lock, lock it
at the correct position.
n Check if there is any loose wire.
n Before connecting a terminal, check for
damaged terminal cover or loose negative
terminal.
n Check the double connector cover for
proper coverage and installation.
n Insert the terminal completely.
n Check the terminal cover for proper
coverage.
n Do not make the terminal cover opening face
up.
n Secure wire harnesses to the frame with their
respective wire bands at the designated
locations.
Tighten the bands so that only the insulated
surfaces contact the wire harnesses.

MX’er SYSTEM
n After clamping, check each wire to make
sure it is secure.
n Do not squeeze wires against the weld or its
clamp.
n After clamping, check each harness to make
sure that it is not interfering with any moving
or sliding parts.
n When fixing the wire harnesses, do not make
it contact the parts which will generate high
heat.
n Route wire harnesses to avoid sharp edges
or corners. Avoid the projected ends of
bolts and screws.
n Route wire harnesses passing through the
side of bolts and screws. Avoid the
projected ends of bolts and screws.

MX’er SYSTEM
n Route harnesses so they are neither pulled
tight nor have excessive slack.
n Protect wires and harnesses with electrical
tape or tube if they contact a sharp edge or
corner.
n When rubber protecting cover is used to
protect the wire harnesses, it shall be
installed securely.
n Do not break the sheath of wire.
n If a wire or harness is with a broken sheath,
repair by wrapping it with protective tape or
replace it.
n When installing other parts, do not press or
squeeze the wires.

MX’er SYSTEM
n After routing, check that the wire harnesses
are not twisted or kinked.
n Wire harnesses routed along with handlebar
should not be pulled tight, have excessive
slack or interfere with adjacent or
surrounding parts in all steering positions.
n When a testing device is used, make sure to
understand the operating methods thoroughly
and operate according to the operating
instructions.
n Be careful not to drop any parts.
n When rust is found on a terminal, remove the
rust with sand paper or equivalent before
connecting.
