User manual GAS GAS ENDUCROSS SM 250 PART LIST 2005 PART 1

[. . . ] This manual provides a wealth of basic information on the moped features and how best to use it. It also includes important safety instructions , together with basic maintenance and inspection routines. Thank you for trusting us and welcome to GAS GAS Motorcycles. -3- IMPORTANT NOTICE Read this manual thoroughly. It contains every single aspect that should help to provide safety for yourself and others, and to ensure the appropriate preservation and maintenance of the GAS GAS moped you have just purchased. [. . . ] Change carburation one step lower. - Check to see that there is oil in the oil reservoir. Before starting the engine, make sure that the oil supply reaches the right level. Upon removal of the screw, a slight tilting of the moped should suffice for the oil to issue through the oil-level hole. - Check the clutch-fluid level and the front- and rear-brake fluid level. This is one of the most crucial items for a proper engine performance, as it is within the carburettor that the petrol-air mixture is produced: a deficient carburetion process translates into a poor performance and may damage the thermal area of the engine. Consequently, it is advisable to have the carburettor adjustment checked, ideally by an Authorized GAS GAS Dealer. Efforts must be made to ensure that the carburettor internal components are clean and in good condition. For this purpose, periodically clean the carburettor and especially its jet by using an air jet or simply by blowing through it. Never use a wire to clean the carburettor, as this might alter the bore and affect the engine negatively. Yet another cause of carburettor malfunctioning may be a blocked fuel-intake filter. Remove the screw securing the intake adapter, clean the filter if it is dirty, and replace it carefully to avoid damaging its filtering cloth. -19- ENGINE Engine lubrication is carried out by means of the fuel, with the oil being supplied from a separate reservoir through a pump driven by the moped engine. AIR FILTER The adequate performance and durability of the various engine components (connecting rod, piston, piston rings, crank bearings, even the cylinder) depend to a great extent on the air filter being clean and properly lubricated. To access the filter, remove the cap on the filter-housing, which has been placed on the left-hand side of the moped. (B) (B). Air box situation. (A) Upon removal of the cap, check the condition of the filter housing, wash the filter if it is dirty, and then lubricate it. Each rod has its own purpose and effect, as, whilst one of them acts mechanically through compression springs, the other one only operates hydraulically. Hydraulic oil SAE 5 - Press the suspension spring and insert the key (5) into the locknut (2) locking the cap (3). Locknut wrench. (D) REAR SUSPENSION The rear suspension, which is of the swivelling type and features a hydraulic shock absorber, requires no more attention than checking its wear and the play on the swivelling arm. Should the silent blocks securing the shock absorber loose their shape, for any reason whatsoever, replace the shock absorber to prevent damaging the chassis geometry. - Pull the hydraulic-system rod (D) slowly. - The fork oil will now issue through the hole in the hydraulic-system rod; keep it raised until it stops. - Insert the suspension spring (1) into the fork tube. -23- CABLE The accelerator cable should always be in perfect condition; therefore, whenever the slightest crack is detected, it must be replaced immediately. However, in order to extend its life and enhance its operation, it should be lubricated approximately every 1000 Kms. Do this by inserting a few drops of SAE-20 between the cable and its guide. Use an aerosol cable lubricant with a pressure luber: (B) (C) (D) (B). Brake caliper. (A) Apply grease to the following point throttle inner cable upper ends (A). Remove the pump cap and pour brake fluid to just under the top level. The tube end should be inserted in a container to avoid fluid spilling. [. . . ] The seller will be responsible for any unwarranted faults that become apparent within the period established in the Law decree 23/2003 on the 10th of July covering Warranties on Consumer Goods Sold from the time of delivery and in accordance with the Directive 1999/44/EC for other members of the European Community. For countries outside the European Community, the Warranty Period will be determined by the existing regulations in those countries. Nevertheless, should the fault appear during the first six months after the delivery of the motorcycle, it will be presumed that the said fault existed at the time of delivery; from the end of the sixth month onwards, the purchaser must demonstrate that the unwarranted fault existed at the moment of delivery. During the first six months subsequent to the delivery of the repaired vehicle, the seller will be -31- responsible for any unwarranted faults arising out of the repair. [. . . ]
