MAINTENANCE

Controls and Linkage

All bushings, spindle shafts, and tie rod ends should be coated with a

light coat of oil or grease. Throttle and brake controls and cables

should be lubricated with LBS1, WD-40, etc. Force a small amount of

lubricant down the cable.

Bearings

To prevent corrosion which will destroy the bearings, always grease

drive shaft clutch side bearings with a high quality bearing grease.

Electrical Connections

Separate electrical connector blocks and clean corrosive build up from

connectors. Lubricate or pack connector blocks with Nyogelt grease

(PN 2871329) and re-connect. Replace worn or frayed electrical wire

and connectors. Be sure wiring harness is properly secured away from

sharp edges, steering linkage, moving parts, and hot exhaust.

Front Suspension

To minimize fatigue on the front shocks and springs during extended

storage, it is recommended that the front end of the machine be safely

blocked off the ground to remove tension from the shocks and springs.
