OPERATION AND IMPORTANT RIDING POINTS

not come on for a few seconds,

then go off, or if it does not go

off after starting with sufficient

fuel, have a Yamaha dealer

check the electrical circuit.

5. After starting the engine, move the

starter (choke) back halfway.

CAUTION:

For maximum engine life, always

warm the engine up before starting

off. Never accelerate hard when the

engine is cold!

6. When the engine is warm, turn the

starter (choke) off.

NOTE:

The engine is warm when it responds

normally to the throttle with the starter

(choke) turned off. To avoid the possi-

bility of excessive exhaust emissions,

never leave the starter (choke) on long-

er than necessary. The time necessary

for starter (choke) use depends upon

10 seconds of starter (choke) use and

temperatures below 10 °C (50 °F) re-

quire about 35 seconds with the starter

(choke) turned on, then about 2.5 min-

utes with the starter (choke) in the half-

way position.
