10. INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE BEFORE RIDING (Please refer to the components location diagram for the following components.) §ROUTINE INSPECTION § Check Items Check Key Points Engine Oil Is there enough engine oil? Fuel Is it enough? Is it Octane 90 or above Front Braking condition? (Brake lever free play: 10~20mm) Rear Braking condition? (Brake lever free play: 10~20mm) Front Is tire pressure normal? 2 (Standard: 1.75kg/cm ) Rear Is tire pressure normal? 2 2 (Standard: 2.
PAGE 14
OIL CHANGE:  Change engine oil after the first 300km, and change the engine oil every 1000km thereafter.  In order to maintain the engine’s maximum performance, check whether the engine oil is enough every 500km.

PAGE 15
 §INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT OF BRAKE FREE PLAY§ INSPECTION: (Brake lever free play must checked with the engine shut off.)  Brake lever and pedal free play for front and rear wheels. ◆If checking the hand-braking lever for front wheels, its free play (the stroke of hand-braking lever from no braking to initial braking) should be 10~20mm. It is abnormal if the feel is spongy when holding the hand-braking lever forcefully.
PAGE 16
§DISK BRAKE INSPECTION§(Applicable for model equipped with disc brake.)  Visual check brake lines for leakage, or damage, check brake lines connections for looseness using a wrench or similar tool, and check whether steering handle vibration in driving, or any parts’ interference may have damage the brake lines. If so, bring your scooter to your SANYANG dealer for repairing or service.
PAGE 17

Rotate steering handle from side to side to check if the throttle valve cable is interfered. 3.
PAGE 18
§TIRE INSPECTION §  Tires should be checked and inflated with the engine shut off.  If a tire’s ground contacting curve is abnormal, check it with an air pressure gauge and inflate it to the specified pressure.  Tires pressure must be checked with an air pressure gauge when cold. PLEASE REFER TO SPECIFICATIONS FOR STANDARD TIRE PRESSURE Foreign materials (nails or small stones)  Crack and damage  Tread wear indicator Visual check tires for frontal and lateral side walls for crack or damage.
PAGE 19
§CHECKING AND CHANGING FUSES § Turn off ignition switch, and check fuses if they are intact. Replace the blown fuse with a new one having the same specified amperage rating (7A). Using a fuse of more than (7A) amperes, a brass or iron wire to replace a blown fuse is strictly prohibited to avoid damaging the electrical system and the circuit.  Remove the storage box, and you’ll find the fuse holder near battery.  Open the fuse box cover, and pull out the fuse. Check it for damage or broken.
PAGE 20
§CHECKING FOR FUEL LEAKAGE§  Check fuel tank, fuel cup, fuel hose, carburetor for leakage. §CHECKING THE LUBRICATION OF BODY’S VARIOUS MECHANISMS§  Check the body’s pivot points if they have enough lubrication. (for example, the pivot points on the main stand, the side stand, and the brake lever…etc.). §CHECKING THE SPARK PLUG§  Remove the cap of spark plug cable (remove the spark plug using the spark plug wrench in the tool kit.  Check the electrode if it is dirty or fouled by carbon deposits.
