12
Fuel supply: Both the fuel tank and oil tank are
located under the saddle (fig. 8) and are
accessible only when the saddle is unlocked
and lifted.
scooters are produced with AOM
(Automatic Oil Mixer) for engine lubrication, and
therefore have two separate tanks, one for petrol
'A' and the other for 2T oil 'B' (fig. 9).
Do not fill tank 'A' with "petrol oil mixture". Only
pure petrol is to be filled in tank 'A'. The oil tank
'B' should only be filled with 2T motor oil.
*Ask your dealer for recommendations about brands.
13
The petrol is fed to the carburetor by a normal
gravity system. The oil is supplied in the suction
pipe by means of an AOM device 'M' (fig. 10)
comprising of a piston pump with variable stroke.
This is controlled by crank shaft through a gear
transmission.
The oil tank is provided with a transparent cup
'C' (fig. 11) for checking oil level, which normally
remains full of oil. When oil level lowers to
reserve value, air bubbles will appears in the
cup. Refill recommended 2T Motor Oil.
Note: Take care that the oil inlet pipe 'T' (fig. 10) from
oil tank to the 'AOM' device is completely full of oil.
If air bubbles are present, take off the pipe 'T' from
the 'AOM' device, let some oil flow out so that the
air bubbles are eliminated. Reconnect the pipe.
14
Petrol control (fig. 12): The fuel cock below the
saddle has 3 positions. Use (ON) for regular flow
of petrol from tank to the engine; (OFF) for
stopping the petrol supply to engine; and (RES)

tolerances. This ensures a longer life for your
vehicle. It is, therefore, necessary to take some
precautions so as not to overload the engine.
Vary the speed from time to time.
Keep to the following speed limits
*Allow a cooling off period of 5-10 minutes after
each hour of use.
1st Gear
:
0 to 6.2 miles/hr.
2nd Gear
:
6.2 to 12.5 miles/hr.
3rd Gear
:
12.5 to 21.8 miles/hr.
4th Gear
:
21.8 miles/hr. and above.
*Do not drive with half, or partially engaged clutch.
this will not only damage the clutch, but will also
cause the engine to overheat.
*Avoid running the scooter on full throttle for long
periods.
*Maintain oil level in gear box up to
recommended level.
25
BATTERY CHECKING :
Battery requires periodic and thorough
maintenance as advised below : The level of
electrolyte must always be in between the upper
and lower levels marked on the battery.
Normally a constant level in the specified range
is maintained for about two months or
approximately 1250 miles (fig. 23).
Caution:
Battery should be removed if the vehicle is to be
washed lying on its side.
Use only 8 Amp. fuse to prevent serious damage to
the wiring harness & battery. Ignition switch should be
in 'off' position while replacing fuse.
The level of electrolyte should be checked once
in a month. In case of a normal decrease
(0.5 cm) put in distilled water only so as to reach
the upper level indicated on the battery. In case
of a marked decrease (1 cm or more), please
get the battery checked at an authorised Service
Station.

CLEANING & POLISHING:
Painted surfaces should first be wet down using
a low-pressure hose to loosen any dirt.
Spots : Possible spots caused by tar, grease,
oil etc. can be removed by rubbing gently with
a soft cloth or cotton-wool dipped in oil or
turpentine.
Next, use a car type shampoo (water solution
3-5% weight) and sponge down the surface.
Rinse the area immediately with a solution of a
car type shampoo and plenty of water.
Dry off using a clean chamois leather to eliminate
water marks.
Any insect remnants on the windshield or
headlamp can be removed with a combination
of warm water and car shampoo.
BODY WASHING
Note : For cleaning the exposed surfaces of the engine
use paraffin (for drying up the vehicle use a brush and
soft cloth or chamois leather).
41
Polishing : In addition to regular cleaning,
periodic polishing helps to minimize the effects
of sun, rain or dust on the paint.
To Polish your scooter : first apply a thin coat of
good quality wax, then polish and shine with a
soft cloth. Gently rub the surfaces to be polished
in a side to side manner.
Note: Washing and polishing operations should not
be carried out in the sun, particularly during the summer
when the bodywork is warm. Under no circumstances
should petrol or Diesel oil be used for washing painted
surfaces or plastic material as they will deteriorate.
CARE OF YOUR VEHICLE WHEN NOT IN USE
FOR LONG PERIODS :
Store
properly if you are not going to use
her for more than two months.
First, remove (i.e. siphon) the petrol from the fuel
tank. Start the engine for some time and burn
the remaining petrol.
Next, remove the spark plug (explained on page
29), and put a few drops of 2T oil in the spark
plug hole. Press the kick lever a couple of times.
Replace the spark plug.
Clean the vehicle thoroughly and apply antirust
grease on all unpainted metallic parts.
Remove the battery.
Finally, raise the wheels off the ground using
wooden planks, and deflate the tires so that they
do not touch the floor. And last, cover the scooter.
