IMPOR T ANT AD VICE REGARDING

THE LEGAL WARRANTY AND THE

COMMER CIAL W ARRANTY

TM sport motorcycles are designed and constructed in a manner to support the stress that may be verified in normal road and competition use.

Competition motorcycles are in compliance with the regulations of the categories actually in force at the most important international motorcycling federations.

The scrupulous compliance with the established inspections, maintenance and tuning of the engine and chassis part of the motorcycle, indicated in the user manual, is indispensable for correct functioning and to prevent premature wear of the parts of the motorcycle itself.

Incorrect tuning of the engine or of the chassis can also jeopardise one’s own safety and that of others.

The maintenance operations established in the “Maintenance and Lubrication” table must be carried out by a specialised TM workshop at the envisioned dates, otherwise any warranty rights will be forfeited.

When you must contact your TM Dealer for spare parts, updating requests or to signal problems, indicate the model, cylinder capacity, year of manufacture and most of all the frame number and the engine serial number

.

Fuels and lubricants must be those established in the user and maintenance manual and must be used as per maintenance programme. Products of other brands can be used as long as they have the equivalent specifications.

In cases of direct and consequent damage caused by tampering or modifications to the motorcycle, no legal warranty claim can be asserted.

The use of the motorcycle in extreme conditions, for example on muddy and very wet ground, may lead to greater than average wear of components, such as transmission components or the brakes. It is therefore possible that maintenance or replacement of some parts is necessary before the limit normally envisioned by the maintenance programme.

MX AND SMX MODELS CANNOT BE USED ON PUBLIC ROADS.

The 250, 450 and 530 models in the END, SMR and SMM versions can be used on roads only in the unvaried type-approved version (reduced). Without this power limitation (i.e. reduced) these

models can only be used off-the-road, but not on public roads.

The END models have been designed for off-the-road resistance competitions (Enduro) and are not suitable for Motocross.

ST AR T COMMAND AND EMER GENCY ST OP

In the models with battery and electric ignition, a two-button command is found at the side of the throttle command, one button is red, the other black.

The red button (1) has two positions. Positioned inwards, it interrupts contact with the battery, removing the current from all services consumers/ancilleries. The engine will not start even with the pedal.

On these models, position it like this to switch the

engine off.

It is advised to leave it like this until the engine is started-up again, otherwise the battery will go flat.

Positioned outwards, it closes the contact with the battery, enables the use of all services, including electric starter.

For this reason, never leave it like this with the engine switched off, otherwise the ignition control unit, which absorbs current even when the engine is switched off, can make the battery flat.

The black button (2) activates the starter. Press to startup the engine and release once running.

Activate this command for a maximum of 8/10 sec. at a time and wait a few seconds before re-trying.

Do not insist for more than 3/4 times: look for the probable fault.

Never press this button when the engine is running.

The fuel fill cap is found on top of the tank.

Open: turn the cap in an anti-clockwise direction

Close: place the cap on the inlet well and tighten it in a clockwise direction.

Position the tank’s open vent pipe (1) preventing bends or crushing and making sure that it is inserted correctly.

CHOKE COMMAND (COLD ST AR TER)

This command is located on the left side of the motorcycle.

For MIKUNI carburetors

By extracting the choke knob (1) as far as possible, a passage is opened in the carburetor, through which the engine can suck additional fuel. In this way, a “rich” air-fuel mix is obtained. This is necessary for starting the engine when it is cold.

To disconnect the command, push the choke knob inwards to its original position.

For KEIHIN carburetors

Extract the knob and turn it clockwise to block it. To disconnect it, turn anticlockwise.

“BY -PASS” COMMAND (HO T ST AR TER)

This command is found on the right side of the motor cycle..

By pulling the by-pass knob (1) forward as far as possible, a hole is opened in the feeding pipe, through which the engine can suck an additional amount of air not mixed with fuel. The result is a “lean” airfuel mix. This is required for starting the engine when it is flooded or particularly overheated.

As soon as the engine is running, push the knob to return it to its normal position.

INDICATIONS FOR FIRST ST AR T -UP DANGER

- Ensure that the “PRE-DELIVERY OPERATIONS” of your motorcycle have been carried out by your TM dealer.

- Carefully read all user instructions before making the first journey.

- Become familiar with all operating controls.

- Adjust the clutch lever, the front brake lever and the brake pedal so that they are in the most comfortable position.

- Get used to driving in an empty carpark or on land where it is easy to handle the motorcycle before making a long journey.

Also try to move at a slow pace on foot to get used to the motorcycle.

- Do not take routes that are too difficult for your driving ability and experience.

- On the road, hold the handlebar with both hands and leave your feet on the footrests.

- Be careful not to push the brake pedal if you do not wish to brake. If the brake pedal is not released, the brake pads rub continuously and the brake overheats

- Do not modify the motorcycle and always use ORIGINAL TM

SPARE PARTS. Spare parts made by other manufacturers can jeopardise the safety of the motorcycle.

- Motorcycles are sensitive to the movement of weight. When carrying luggage, fix it as near as possible to the centre of the motorcycle and distribute the weight equally between the front and rear wheel.

- Follow running in instructions.

- ALWAYS WEAR SUITABLE CLOTHING WHEN USING THE

MOTORCYCLE. ASTUTE MOTORCYCLISTS THAT DRIVE A TM

ALWAYS WEAR THE TYPE-APPROVED HELMET, BOOTS, GLOVES

AND A JACKET, WHETHER IT IS A LONG OR SHORT JOURNEY. THE

PROTECTIVE CLOTHING SHOULD BE BRIGHT SO THAT THE

MOTORCYCLIST CAN BE EASILY SEEN BY OTHER ROAD USERS.

- ALWAYS SWITCH THE HEADLIGHT ON DURING THE JOURNEY, SO

THAT OTHER ROAD-USERS CAN SEE YOU IN TIME.

- DO NOT DRINK AND DRIVE.

- ONLY USE ORIGINAL TM ACCESSORIES. FRONT COVERINGS, FOR

EXAMPLE, CAN NEGATIVELY AFFETCT THE BEHAVIOUR OF THE

MOTORCYCLE ON THE ROAD AT HIGH SPEEDS, OR HAVE NEGA-

TIVE INFLUENCE OF THE BEHAVIOUR OF THE MOTORCYCLE DUE

TO DIFFERENT WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION.

- THE FRONT AND REAR TYRES MUST HAVE THE SAME TYPE OF

PROFILE.

- AFTER THE FIRST 30 MINS, OF DRIVING, THE WHEEL SPOKE

TENSION MUST BE CHECKED. SPOKE TENSION DECREASES

QUICKLY ON NEW WHEELS. IF YOU DRIVE WITH LOOSE SPOKES,

THE SPOKES MAY BREAK, CAUSING UNSTABLE DRIVING

CONDITIONS (SEE CHECK SPOKE TENSION).

- THE RACING MODELS HAVE BEEN DESIGNED AND PREPARED ONLY

FOR ONE PERSON. IT IS PROHIBITED TO TAKE ON PASSENGERS.

- FOLLOW THE HIGHWAY CODE, DRIVE CAREFULLY SO AS TO

RECOGNISE DANGERS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

- ADAPT SPEED TO THE CONDITIONS OF THE ROAD AND YOUR

DRIVING CAPABILITY.

- DRIVE CAREFULLY ON UNKNOWN ROADS OR LAND.

- WHEN OFF-ROAD YOU SHOULD ALWAYS BE ACCOMPANIED BY A

FRIEND WITH A SECOND MOTORCYCLE, SO THAT YOU CAN HELP

EACH OTHER IF DIFFICULTIES OCCUR.

- IN DUE TIME, REPLACE THE VISOR OR LENSES OF THE GOGGLES.

YOU WILL BE BLINDED AGAINST SUNLIGHT IF THE VISOR OR

GOGGLES ARE SCRATCHED.

- DO NOT LEAVE THE MOTORCYCLE UNSUPERVISED IF THE ENGINE

IS RUNNING.

The surfaces of components of a new motorcycle, even if they undergo precision workings, are however less smooth than the same components in a motorcycle that have been driven for a time: this explains the necessity for running in the new engine.

To obtain an optimal bedding of the moving parts of a new engine, it must be taken to produce maximum performance gradually.

For this reason, during the first 3 hours of use (1 hour for competition use) the engine must only be used up to max. 50% of its power. Moreover, the number of revs. must not exceed

7000/min.

In the following 5 hours of use (1 hour for competition use) the engine can be used up to max. 75% of its power. Drive the motorcycle in different conditions (road, easy off-road tracts).

Do not make long journeys without ever closing the throttle.

By following these regulations, you will obtain maximum performance and longer duration of the motorcycle through time.

DANGER

- MX AND SMX MODELS ARE NOT TYPE-APPROVED FOR USE ON

PUBLIC ROADS OR MOTORWAYS.

- WHEN USING YOUR MOTORCYCLE, ALWAYS KEEP IN MIND THAT

EXCESSIVE NOISE DISTURBS OTHERS.

WARNING

THE 250/450/530 END/MX/SMX MODELS HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED WITH

NO COMPROMISE FOR OFF-ROAD COMPETITIONS. EVEN IF THE ENDURO

MODELS ARE TYPE-APPROVED, PAY ATTENTION WHEN USING ON THE

ROAD . MOST OF ALL AVOID SUSTAINED ACCELERATION CONSTANT

THROTTLE ON LONG ROADS, ROLL THE THROTTLE ON AND BACK

SLIGHTLY.

CHECK BEFORE EVER Y ST AR T -UP

To use the motorcycle safely, it must be in a good shape. It is a good idea to carry out a general check-up of the motorcycle before every start-up.

This check must include the following operations:

1 LEVEL OF ENGINE OIL

To ensure adequate lubrication, the level of the oil in the engine must be kept within the envisioned limits. Using the engine with the oil level below minimum leads to premature wear and successively, to damage and risks to the driver.

2 FUEL

If the motorcycle does not have a transparent tank, open the tank cap and visually check the quantity of fuel contained in the tank. Reclose the tank, making sure that the open vent pipe is not bent and so impeding the flow of air.

3 CHAIN

The drive chain must always be tensioned corretly and well lubricated.

A loose chain knocks and may escape from the sprockets.

A too tight chain wears early and may cause wear and brakage of some important transmission components.

4 TYRES

Check for any damage. Tyres with cuts or swellings must be replaced immediately.

Check the depth of the tread which must correspond to the law.

Finally, check the air pressure and take it to the values envisioned in the table, if necessary.

Worn tread and unsuitable air pressure worsen driving of the motorcycle and may cause loss of control and serious accidents.

5 BRAKES

Verify correct working.

Check the level of brake fluid. The reservoir on the pumps are dimensioned in a way that in case of normally worn brake pads the fluid does not need to be topped-up. If the level of brake fluid falls below the minimum level, this indicates a leak in the brake system or complete consumption of the brake pads. Have the brake system checked by a specialised TM workshop, given that in this case the brakes could fail.

The state of the brake’s flexible pipes and the thickness of the pads must also be checked.

Check the free play and the smoothness of the front brake lever and the rear brake pedal.

6 FLEXIBLE CABLE COMMANDS

Check the adjustment and correct working of all flexible cable commands .

7 COOLANT

Check the level of coolant with cold engine. Top-up with the liquid stated in the table, if necessary.

8 ELECTRICAL PLANT

With the engine running, check for the front headlight, the front and rear position lights, the rear stopping light, the direction indicator lights, the control lights and the horn.

9 LUGGAGE

Check that any luggage is well fixed.

24

COLD ENGINE ST AR T

1 Open the fuel tap (1).

2 Remove the motorcycle from the stand.

3 Put the gears in neutral.

4 Activate the choke command (2), which is located on the left side of the motorcycle.

5 WITHOUT opening the throttle, press hardly the kickstarter DOWN

TO THE BOTTOM once or twice, or operate the electric starter.

6 Start to warm the engine by accelerating slightly for about 30 secs.

Disconnect the choke (2), which is situated on the left side of the motorcycle.

DANGER

- ALWAYS WEAR STRONG MOTORCYCLE BOOTS WHEN STARTING UP

THE MOTORCYCLE TO PREVENT INJURY. YOU COULD SLIP OFF OF THE

PEDAL OR THE ENGINE COULD KICKBACK AND MAKE YOU KNOCK YOUR

FOOT VIOLENTLY.

- ALWAYS PRESS THE KICKSTARTER DOWN HARD WITHOUT

ACCELERATING. KICKSTARTING WITH LITTLE FORCE OR WITH OPENED

THROTTLE, INCREASES THE RISK OF ENGINE KICK BACK.

- DO NOT START THE ENGINE IN A CLOSED SPACE AND NEVER LEAVE IT

RUNNING IN CLOSED SPACES. THE EXHAUST FUMES ARE POISONOUS

AND MAY LEAD TO RISK OF UNCONSCIOUSNESS AND DEATH. WHEN THE

ENGINE IS RUNNING, ALWAYS ENSURE THERE IS SUFFICIENT VENTILATION.

- ALWAYS CHECK THAT THE GEAR IS IN NEUTRAL BEFORE OPERATING

THE STARTER BUTTON. IF A GEAR IS INSERTED WHEN STARTING THE

ENGINE, THE MOTORCYCLE WILL JUMP FORWARDS.

WARNING

- OPERATE THE STARTER FOR MAX. 5 SECONDS AT A TIME. WAIT ANOTHER

5 SECONDS BEFORE TRYING AGAIN.

- DO NOT ALLOW THE ENGINE REVS. TO INCREASE TOO MUCH WHILE THE

ENGINE IS COLD. THIS COULD DAMAGE THE ENGINE BECAUSE THE PISTON

HEATS UP AND CONSEQUENTLY, IT EXPANDS QUICKER THAN THE CYLINDER,

WHICH IS WATER-COOLED. ALWAYS WARM THE ENGINE AT A STANDSTILL

OR MOVE AT LOW REVS.

W ARM ENGINE ST AR T

1 Open the fuel tap (1).

2 Remove the motorcycle from the stand

3 Insert the neutral gear.

4 WITHOUT opening the throttle, press hardly the kickstarter DOWN

TO THE BOTTOM once or twice, or operate the electric starter.

WARNING

- OPERATE THE STARTER MOTOR FOR MAX. 5 SECONDS AT A TIME. WAIT

ANOTHER 5 SECONDS BEFORE TRYING AGAIN.

25

In the event of a fall, a certain amount of fuel can flow out of the caburetor and enter the head, “flooding” the engine.

To start the engine, pull the “hot start” knob or turn the “hot start” lever

(1).

WITHOUT opening the throttle push hardly the kickstart pedal DOWN

TO THE BOTTOM once or twice or operate the electric starter.

On models with a manual decompressor, to eliminate the excess fuel from the engine, pull the manual decompressor lever and operate the kickstart pedal 5 -10 times or the electric starter button respectively twice for 5 seconds. Start the engine as previously described. If necessary, remove the spark plug and dry it.

WARNING: The carburetor has an accelerator pump. Every time that you open the throttle,with the engine running or switched off, a quantity of fuel is sprayed into the inlet tract. If this operation is carried out with the engine switched off, it causes flooding of the engine, with the consequent starting difficulties and a dangerous distribution of fuel.

NEVER TURN THE THROTTLE WHEN THE ENGINE IS NOT RUNNING

IF NOT STRICTLY NECESSARY. IN ANY CASE DO IT ONLY ONCE AND

NEVER REPEATEDLY!

BIKE ST AR TING

Pull the clutch lever, insert the first gear, release the clutch lever slowly, accelerating at the same time.

DANGER

BEFORE STARTING, ALWAYS CHECK THAT THE SIDE STAND HAS BEEN

LIFTED. IF THE STAND SLIDES ALONG THE GROUND YOU COULD LOOSE

THE CONTROL OF THE MOTORCYCLE.

A CCELERA TING

1 st gear, which should be selected, is the pulling away and ascent gear. If the circumstances permit (speed limits, traffic, slopes), to increase speed, insert higher gears. To do this, close the throttle, pull the clutch lever at the same time, insert the successive gear, release the clutch and accelerate up to 1/2 turn of the throttle. Then insert the following gear and repeat this operation until the desired speed is reached and however, permitted by the limits in force.

Gradual opening of the accelerator favours careful driving and limits consumption. Learn the correct opening of the throttle on the basis of the pace at which you want the motorcycle to move.

To reduce speed, the throttle must be closed. Brake and shift down the gears, pulling the clutch lever and inserting a lower gear. Release the clutch slowly and accelerate or change gear again . Always increase or change down the gears one at a time!

INDICATION:

All TM models do not have a radiator cooling fan and the radiator dimensions have been studied to optimise compactness and weight.

The cooling system is sufficient for touristic or sports use.

If you want to use an additional cooling fan contact a TM authorised dealer.

- TM MODELS CAN BE RE-STARTED AT ANY TIME BY KICK OR WITH

THE ELECTRIC STARTER. SWITCH THE ENGINE OFF WHEN YOU

INTEND TO KEEP THE MOTORCYCLE AT A STANDSTILL FOR MORE

THAN 2 MINUTES.

DANGER

- AFTER EVERY FALL, THE MOTORCYCLE MUST BE CONTROLLED IN THE

SAME WAY AS BEFORE EVERY START-UP .

- A DEFORMED HANDLEBAR MUST ALWAYS BE REPLACED. NEVER

STRAIGHTEN THE HANDLEBAR AS IT COULD LOOSE ITS STRENGTH.

WARNING

- USE OF THE ENGINE AT A HIGH NUMBER OF REVS WHEN IT IS COLD,

NEGATIVELY AFFECTS THE DURATION OF THE ENGINE. BEFORE USING THE

MOTORCYCLE AT FULL WORKING CONDITIONS, IT IS BETTER TO WARM IT

ADEQUATELY BY DRIVING AT AN AVERAGE SPEED. THE ENGINE HAS

REACHED ITS WORKING TEMPERATURE AS SOON AS THE RADIATORS

BECOME HOT.

- NEVER SHIFT DOWN A GEAR WITHOUT HAVING FIRST SLOWED DOWN. THE

ENGINE WOULD BE TAKEN TO AN EXCESSIVE NUMBER OF REVS AND THE

VALVES AND OTHER ENGINE COMPONENTS WOULD BE DAMAGED. THE

REAR WHEEL COULD ALSO LOCK, LEADING TO LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE

VEHICLE.

- IF THERE ARE ABNORMAL VIBRATIONS DURING FUNCTIONING, CHECK THAT

THE SCREW FASTENERS ARE TIGHTENED WELL.

- IF STRANGE NOISES ARE HEARD DURING DRI VING , STOP IMMEDIATELY,

SWITCH THE ENGINE OFF AND CONTACT A TM AUTHORISED DEALER.

27

Close the throttle and brake at the same time progressively with the front and rear brakes. Insert a lower gear depending on speed. On dusty, wet or slippery surfaces, operate the brakes and change down the gears gently without locking the wheels. Locking the wheels leads to swerving or a fall.

When following long descending roads, make use of the engine’s braking effect. To do this, insert the 1st or 2nd gear, without however increasing the revs. excessively. In this way you will have to brake much less and the brakes will not overheat.

DANGER

- IN CASE OF RAIN, AFTER WASHING THE MOTORCYCLE, AFTER

IMMERSION IN WATER OR TRAVELLING OVER WET GROUND, THE

BRAKING ACTION COULD BE DELAYED BECAUSE OF WET OR DIRTY

BRAKE DISCS.THE BRAKES MUST THEREFORE BE OPERATED

REPEATEDLY UNTIL THE DISCS ARE DRY AND CLEAN.

- THE BRAKING ACTION CAN ALSO BE DELAYED WHEN TRAVELLING ON

DIRTY ROADS OR ROADS COVERED WITH SALT. THE BRAKES MUST BE

OPERATED UNTIL THE DISCS ARE CLEAN.

- WHEN THE BRAKE DISCS ARE DIRTY THERE IS GREATER WEAR OF THE

PADS AND THE BRAKE DISCS THEMSELVES.

- AFTER USING THE BRAKES, THE DISC, THE PADS, THE CALIPERS AND

THE BRAKE FLUID HEAT UP. THE HOTTER THESE PARTS, THE LESS THE

BRAKING EFFECT. IN CASE OF OVERHEATING THE ENTIRE BRAKING

SYSTEM MAY NOT WORK.

- IF THE FORCE AT THE FRONT BRAKE LEVER OR BRAKE PEDAL IS MINIMAL,

THERE COULD BE A FAULT IN THE BRAKING SYSTEM. IN THIS CASE IT IS

A GOOD IDEA TO HAVE THE MOTORCYCLE CHECKED BY AN AUTHORISED

TM DEALER.

ST OPPING AND P ARKING

Stop the motorcycle and shift into neutral. To switch the motorcycle off, press, at normal minimum revs, the engine stop switch until the engine

.

has stopped, or the red emergency shutdown button. In this case, it is advised to leave the red button in this way until the engine is started again.Close the fuel tap, park on solid ground and lock the motorcycle using the steering lock.

DANGER

MOTORCYCLES PRODUCE A LOT OF HEAT DURING WORKING. THE ENGINE,

RADIATORS, EXHAUST SYSTEM, BRAKE DISCS AS WELL AS SHOCK

ABSORBERS CAN ALL BECOME VERY HOT. NEVER TOUCH THESE PARTS

WHEN DRIVING AND AFTER HAVING SWITCHED THE ENGINE OFF, PARK THE

MOTORCYCLE IN A WAY THAT PEDESTRIANS CANNOT TOUCH THEM AND

BE BURNED.

WARNING

- NEVER SWITCH THE ENGINE OFF USING THE DECOMPRESSOR LEVER, BUT

USE THE ENGINE STOP SWITCH OR THE EMERGENCY SHUTDOWN BUTTON.

- THE FUEL TAP MUST ALWAYS BE CLOSED WHEN THE MOTORCYCLE IS

PARKED. IF IT IS NOT CLOSED, THE FUEL COULD RUN OUT INTO THE

CARBURETOR AND PENETRATE THE ENGINE, FLOODING IT.

- NEVER PARK WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING OR PARK THE MOTORCYLE IN

PLACES WHERE THERE IS THE RISK OF FIRE DUE TO DRY GRASS OR OTHER

EASILY INFLAMMABLE MATERIALS.

28

INDICATIONS REGARDING THE SIDE STAND:

Push the stand forward until it stops and lean the motorcycle on it.

Ensure that the ground is solid and the parking position is stable. For greater safety insert the 1st gear.

WARNING

THE SIDE STAND IS DESIGNED ONLY FOR THE WEIGHT OF THE MOTORCYCLE.

NEVER SIT ON THE MOTORCYCLE WHEN IT IS RESTING ON THE SIDE STAND,

OTHERWISE THE STAND MAY BE DAMAGED AND THE MOTORCYCLE CAN

FALL.

TM engines require super unleaded fuel with at least 95 RON.

WARNING

FILL THE TANK WITH UNLEADED FUEL WITH A MINIMUM OCTANE NUMBER OF

95. NEVER USE FUEL WITH AN OCTANE NUMBER LOWER THAN 95, BECAUSE

THIS WOULD DAMAGE THE ENGINE.

DANGER

FUEL IS HIGHLY INFLAMMABLE AND TOXIC. HANDLE FUEL WITH GREAT

CARE. DO NOT FILL-UP WITH FUEL NEAR TO FLAMES OR CIGARETTES.

ALWAYS SWITCH THE ENGINE OFF WHEN FILLING UP WITH FUEL. NEVER

POUR FUEL ONTO THE ENGINE OR ONTO THE EXHAUST PIPE. IF ANY FUEL

IS ACCIDENTLY POURED ONTO THESE PARTS, DRY IT IMMEDIATELY USING

A CLOTH. IF FUEL IS SWALLOWED OR SPRAYED INTO THE EYES, SEEK

MEDICAL HELP IMMEDIATELY.

Fuel expands when heated. Therefore, never fill the tank completely with high environmental temperatures.

DANGER

ALL MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENT OPERATIONS THAT ARE MARKED WITH (A) REQUIRE TECHNICAL MASTERY. FOR THIS REASON IT

IS IN THE INTEREST OF YOUR SAFETY TO HAVE THESE OPERATIONS CARRIED OUT EXCLUSIVELEY BY A SPECIALISED TM WORKSHOP

WHERE YOUR MOTORCYCLE WILL BE MAINTAINED IN AN OPTIMAL MANNER BY SPECIFICALLY TRAINED STAFF.

WARNING

- IF POSSIBLE, DO NOT USE HIGH PRESSURE JETS WHEN WASHING THE MOTORCYCLE BECAUSE THE WATER COULD PENETRATE INTO THE

BEARINGS, THE CARBURETOR, ELECTRIC CONNECTORS, ETC.

- WHEN TRANSPORTING YOUR TM, ENSURE THAT IT IS WELL-HELD IN A VERTICAL POSITION USING BELTS OR OTHER MECHANICAL FIXING

DEVICES AND ENSURE THAT THE FUEL TAP IS SWITCHED OFF. IF THE MOTORCYCLE SHOULD FALL, FUEL COULD ESCAPE FROM THE

CABURETOR OR TANK.

- TO FIX THE SHROUDS TO THE TANK ONLY USE THE SPECIAL SCREWS WITH THE CORRECT LENGTH OF THREAD FOR TM BIKES. IF YOU USE

DIFFERENT SCREWS OR LONGER SCREWS, THE TANK COULD BE DAMAGED WITH CONSEQUENT FUEL LEAK.

- DO NOT USE NOTCHED WASHERS OR SPRING WASHERS FOR THE ENGINE FASTENING SCREWS , BECAUSE THEY COULD PENETRATE INTO

PARTS OF THE FRAME AND LOOSEN CONTINUALLY. USE SELF-LOCKING NUTS.

- LEAVE THE MOTORCYCLE TO COOL BEFORE STARTING ANY MAINTENANCE. THIS WILL PREVENT BURNS.

- DISPOSE OF OILS, GREASES , FILTERS, FUELS, DETERGENTS, ETC. IN A REGULAR MANNER. COMPLY WITH THE RESPECTIVE REGULATIONS OF

YOUR COUNTRY.

- DISPOSE OF WASTE OIL IN A REGULAR MANNER ! NEVER POUR OLD OIL INTO DRAINS OR RIVERS.

CHECK OF STEERING BEARINGS

AND PLA Y

Periodically check the play of the steering bearings. For the check, lift the front wheel and shake the fork forward and backwards. For adjustment, loosen the four M8 screws (1) and nut (2) of the head of the fork and act on the ring nut (3), tightening it until there is no more play. Do not tighten the ring nut further to prevent damage to the bearings. Tighten the fork head nut and successively the four M8 screws to20 Nm.

Check for a smooth steering.

DANGER

IF THE STEERING BEARINGS DO NOT HAVE THE CORRECT CLEARANCE,

THE BEHAVIOUR ON THE ROAD WILL BE IRREGULAR AND YOU COULD

LOOSE CONTROL OF THE MOTORCYCLE.

WARNING

MAKING LONG JOURNEYS WITH INCORRECT STEERING BEARINGS

ADJUSTMENT, YOU RISK TO DAMAGE THE BEARINGS AND THEIR SEATS IN

THE FRAME.

The steering bearings should be re-greased at least once a year.

38

Every 5 hours of use in competitions loosen the vent screws (1) by a few turns, so allowing the release of any air-pressure from inside the fork. Instead of a screw, Marzocchi fork features a tyre valve (3), which is protected by a rubber bulb (4). Remove the rubber bulb and press gently the valve stem.

Before operating on the screws or on the valve, lift the motorcycle onto the stand in a way that the front wheel does not touch the ground. If the motorcycle is used mainly on roads, it is sufficient only to carry out this operation during periodical maintenance.

WARNING

VERY HIGH PRESSURE INSIDE THE FORK CAN CAUSE THE FORK TO LEAK. IF

YOUR FORK PRESENTS A LEAK, LOOSEN THE VENT SCREWS BEFORE HAVING

THE SEALING ELEMENTS REPLACED.

CLEANING OF TELESCOPIC FORK DUST

SCRAPER

The dust scraper (2) must scrape the dust and dirt from the fork rods.

However, after some time, dirt may also reach behind the dust scrapers.

If the dirt is not removed, the oil seal units, which are found behind, may leak.

Use a screwdriver to lever the dust scraper from the outside legs and push it downwards.

Clean the dust scraper, the outside legs and the rods carefully. Oil them well with silicone spray or with engine oil. Finally, push the dust scraper manually into the outside legs.

B ASIC CALIBRA TION OF THE CY CLE P AR T ON

To obtain optimal driving features of the motorcycle and to prevent damage to the fork, rear shock, rear swing arm and frame, it is necessary that the basic calibration of the suspension is adapted to your body weight. In the delivery status, the off-road TM motorcycles are calibrated on a pilot weight (with complete protective clothing) of 70 –

80 kg. If your weight is not within these values, you must adequately adapt the basic calibration of the suspensions. Minor weight changes can be compensated by varying the spring pre-load. For greater variations, suitable springs rates must be used.

SHOCK CALIBRA TION

If the rear shock spring is suitable for your weight, it can be seen by lowering in running order. However, before establishing the lowering in running order, static lowerIng must be adjusted correctly.

EST ABLISHING REAR SHOCK ST A TIC L O WERING

The static lowering should be35 mm. Variations of more than 2 mm can notably influence driving of the motorcycle.

Procedure:

- Position the motorcycle on a stand so that the rear wheel does not touch the ground.

- Measure the distance between the rear wheel axle and a fixed point

(e.g.. a mark on the side panel) paying attention that the straight line that joins the axle and the fixed point is as perpendicular as possible to the ground and make note of the value as A.

- Rest the motorcycle back on the ground.

- Ask a helper to hold the motorcycle in a vertical position.

- Measure the distance between the rear wheel axle and the fixed point again. Make note of this measurement as B.

- The static lowering is the difference between measurement A and B.

EXAMPLE:

Motorcycle on stand (measurement A)………………........... 600 m m

Motorcycle on the ground, not loaded (measurement B) .. - 565 m m

Static lowering ……………………………................................. 35 m m

If thestatic lowering is smaller, the rear shock spring pre-load must be decreased. If the static lowering is greater, the spring pre-load must be increased. See variation of rear shock spring pre-load chapter.

40

EST ABLISHING REAR SHOCK L WERING IN

- Now, with the help of a person who holds the motorcycle, sit on the motorcycle wearing all protective clothing (with feet on the footrests) and rock up and down a few times to normalise the set-up of the rear suspension.

- A third person must then measure the distance between the same points, with the motorcycle loaded and note this measurement as C.

- Lowering in running order is the difference between measurements

A and C.

EXAMPLE:

Motorcycle on stand (measurement A). …………...…….... 600 m m

Motorcycle on the ground loaded with the pilot’s weight

(measurement C) ......................................................................... - 510 mm

Lowering in running order................ …………………...........

90 m m

Lowering in running order should be 90÷105 mm.

If lowering in running order is less than 90 mm, the spring is too hard

(spring rate too high).

If the lowering exceeds 105 mm, the spring is too soft (spring rate too low).

The spring rate is indicated on the outside of the spring wire.

After mounting a different spring,static lowering must be adjusted again to 35 mm (± 2 mm).

According to our experience, the dampening grade in compression can remain unvaried. With a softer spring, the dampening grade in rebound can be reduced by some clicks, with an harder spring, increased by some clicks.

CHECK TELESCOPIC FORK BASIC

CALIBRA TION

For several reasons, the exact lowering in running order of the telescopic fork can not be established. Small variations in body weight can be compensated, as for the rear shock, through the spring pre-load. If your telescopic fork, however, lowers completely, it is necessary to use an higher rate fork spring to prevent damage to the telescopic fork and frame.

V ARIA TION OF TELESCOPIC FORK PRE-L O AD

To vary the spring pre-load on these telescopic forks, it is necessary to disassemble them partially (see specific manual of the fork mounted on the motorcycle). It is possible to add pre-load spacers. The fork springs however, can be pre-loaded to a max. of 20 mm.

41

If your body weight is less than 70 kg or exceeds 80 kg, adequate fork springs must be used.

If you are in doubt or have any questions, please contact your authorised

TM dealer.

According to our experience, the dampening grade in compression can remain unvaried. With a softer spring, the dampening grade in rebound can be reduced by some clicks, with a harder spring, increased by some clicks.

WARNING

FOR FURTHER AND MORE DETAILED INFORMATION REGARDING THE

STANDARD AND OPTIONAL FORK, REFER TO THE INSTRUCTION BOOK

SUPPLIED BY THE MANUFACTURER OF THE FORK AND GIVEN BY TM

ACCOMPANYING THE MOTORCYCLE.

V ARIA TION OF REAR SHOCK SPRING PREL O AD

The pre-loading of the spring can be varied by turning the adjustment ring (5). With this aim, it is advised to disassemble the rear shock and clean it well.

INDICATION:

- Before varying the spring pre-load you should make note of te basic adjustment - for example how many thread turns are visible above the adjustment ring nut.

- By 1 turn of the adjustment ring 5) the spring pre-load varies by 1.5

mm.

Loosen the lock ring nut (6) and turn the adjustment ring nut. By turning it anti-clockwise (viewed from top) the pre-load decreases, by turning it clockwise the pre-load increases.

After the adjustment, tighten the lock ring nut (6).

The rear suspension of all TM motorcycles has a link-rod and rocker mechanism that progressively changes the lever relationship between the wheel and the rear shock.

This mechanism works on bearings, which must be cleaned and greased at the envisioned intervals to maintain the working of the suspension efficient.

When cleaning the motorcycle with high pressure cleaning devices, do not aim the jet completely onto the suspension mechanical linkage.

42

Put the motorcycle onto the central stand to control chain tension.

Push the chain upwards to the end of the drive chain slider.

The upper part of the chain (A) must be taught (see photo). The distance between the chain and rear fork must be about. 10-15 mm. Adjust the tension, if necessary.

DANGER

- IF THE CHAIN IS TOO TIGHT , THE FINAL TANSMISSION COMPONENTS

(CHAIN, GEARBOX AND REAR WHEEL BEARINGS) ARE GREATLY

STRESSED. AS WELL AS A PREMATURE WEAR, IN EXTREME SITUATIONS

THE CHAIN OR GEARBOX DRIVEN SHAFT MAY BREAK.

- IF, HOWEVER, CHAIN TENSION IS INSUFFICIENT, IT CAN EXIT FROM THE

SPROCKET AND LOCK THE REAR WHEEL OR DAMAGE THE ENGINE.

- IN BOTH CASES IT IS EASY TO LOOSE CONTROL OF THE MOTORCYCLE.

ADJUSTMENT OF CHAIN TENSION

(ALL MODELS EXCEPT SMM)

Loosen the wheel axle nut (1), loosen the counter-nuts (2) and turn the adjustment bolts (3) to the left and to the right by the same amount. To increase chain tension, unscrew the adjustment bolts. To decrease chain tension, screw the adjustment bolts. Reach correct chain tension.

For correct alignment of the rear wheel, the marks (4) on the right and left chain-tensioner must aligned with respect to the reference markings

(5). Tighten the adjustment screw counter-nuts. Before locking the wheel axle nut, check that the chain-tensioners (6) are laying on the heads of the adjustment bolts and that the rear wheel is aligned with the front wheel.

Tighten the wheel axle nut to 80 Nm.

ATTENTION

- IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A DYNAMOMETRIC WRENCH FOR ASSEMBLING, HAVE

THE TIGHTENING TORQUE CHECKED BY A SPECIALISED TM WORKSHOP AS

SOON AS POSSIBLE.

A LOOSE WHEEL AXLE MAY CAUSE UNSTABLE DRIVING OF THE

MOTORCYCLE.

Loosen both the locking screws(7) of the rear eccentric hub in a way that the hub itself can turn around its axis.

Using the relevant TM tool, code F50806 (8), turn the hub until correct chain tension is reached. Tighten the two locking screws to 30 Nm.

Since the movement is an eccentric system, alignment of the rear wheel is unvaried and no further adjustment is required.

At the same time, by turning the hub a slight variation in the height of the rear wheel axle may be verified and consequently of the rear part of the motorcycle. It is possible to compensate this, by varying the projection of the fork legs from the upper clamp.

For example, if the motorcycle, by effect of chain adjustment, has lifted by 5mm. at the rear, it is advised to decrease the projection of the fork rods by about 5mm. to also raise the front and restore the original levelling of the motorcycle.

It is advised to use the TM tool, code F50806, pairing with two M8 screws and two nuts to turn the hub inserting the two screws into the two holes in the hub itself.

A TTENTION

- IF YOU DO NOT HAVE SUITABLE EXPERIENCE, IT IS ADVISED TO HAVE THE

OPERATION CARRIED OUT BY A SPECIALISED TM WORKSHOP.

8

Chain duration depends most of all on maintenance. Chains without

O-rings must be regularly cleaned with petroleum and then immersed in warm chain oil or treated with chain spray. Maintenance of chains with O-rings is reduced to a minimum. The best cleaning method is using lots of water. Never use brushes or solvents to clean the chain.

When the chain is dry, use a chain spray that is especially suitable for chains with O-rings.

DANGER

DO NOT ALLOW THE LUBRICANT TO REACH THE REAR TYRE OR THE BRAKE

DISC, OTHERWISE ADHERENCE TO THE GROUND OF THE REAR WHEEL AND

REAR BRAKE ACTION COULD BE NOTABLY REDUCED AND IT COULD BE

EASY TO LOOSE CONTROL OF THE MOTORCYCLE.

WARNING

ON MOUNTING THE CHAIN SPLIT LINK, THE CLOSED PART MUST BE IN THE

DIRECTION OF MOVEMENT.

Always check both engine and rear wheel sprockets and drive slider for wear. If necessary, replace these parts.

7

44

To check chain wear follow carefully the instructions given below : put the gear into neutral, pull the upper part of the chain in an upward direction with a force of 10 - 15 kilogrammes (see figure). Now, measure the distance of 18 links on the lower part of the chain. If the distance exceeds 272 mm it is advised to replace the chain. The chains are not always worn in a even way. For this reason the measurement must be taken in different points on the chain.

INDICATION:

When a new chain is mounted, also replace the sprockets. A new chain wears more quickly on old and worn sprockets.

WARNING

WHEN THE CHAIN SPROCKETS ARE REPLACED, IT IS ADVISED TO MOUNT NEW

SELF-LOCKING NUTS AND TO TIGHTEN WITH CROSS SEQUENCE.

TIGHTENING TORQUE AT NUTS 35 NM.

B ASIC INDICA TIONS FOR TM DISC BRAKES

CALIPERS :

The mounting system of the calipers of these models is “floating”, i.e

they are not rigidly joined to their support. The lateral compensation always allows the pads to work in the best way on the discs. The brake caliper fastening screws must be assembled using Loctite 243 and tightened at 25 Nm.

The front calipers of the SMR/SMM/SMX models are an exception as they are fixed-type.

PADS:

The minimum thickness of the friction material cannot go under the limit of 1mm.

In case of replacement, it is advised always to use TM original spare parts for your motorcycle.

BRAKE DISCS:

With wear the thickness of the brake disc is reduced in the contact area of the pads (1). In the thinnest point (A) the brake disc may present max. wear of 0.4 mm with respect to original thickness. The original thickness can be measured in point (B) outside of the contact area.

Check wear in different points.

DANGER

- BRAKE DISCS WITH WEAR EXCEEDING 0.4 MM ARE A RISK FOR SAFETY.

WHEN THE LIMIT OF WEAR HAS BEEN REACHED, HAVE THE BRAKE DISCS

REPLACED IMMEDIATELY.

- IT IS COMPULSORY TO HAVE THE BRAKE UNIT REPAIRED BY A TM

AUTHORISED WORKSHOP.

BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIRS:

The front and rear brake liquid reservoirs are dimensioned in a way that topping-up is not necessary even if the brake pads are worn. In fact, when the pads are worn, the fluid in the hoses tends to occupy the space left by the small pistons, which have moved so that the pads always lay on the disc. If the level of brake fluid falls below the minimum value, it indicates that there is a leak in the braking system or brake pad wear is beyond accepted limits.

BRAKE FLUID:

The braking system is filled by TM with top-quality DOT 4 brake fluid.

We recommend that top-ups and complete replacement are carried out using the same type of fluid (DOT 4).

DANGER

HAVE THE BRAKE FLUID REPLACED AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR. IF YOU WASH

THE MOTORCYCLE FREQUENTLY, IT SHOULD BE REPLACED MORE OFTEN.

THE BRAKE FLUID SOAKS WATER. IN OLD FLUID THEREFORE IT IS POSSIBLE

THAT STEAM BUBBLES FORM EVEN AT LOW TEMPERATURES AND THE

BRAKING SYSTEM DOES NOT WORK CORRECTLY.

FREE PLA Y ADJUSTMENT OF

FRONT BRAKE LEVER

THE OF

The free play of the front brake lever can be varied using the adjustment screw (1). In this way the position of the pressure point (the resistance that can be perceived at the front brake lever when the pads are pressed against the brake discs) can be adjusted for any hand size.

WARNING

THE FREE PLAY OF THE FRONT BRAKE LEVER MUST BE AT LEAST 3 MM. ONLY

THEN, THE LEVER MUST START TO MOVE THE PISTON IN THE FRONT BRAKE

PUMP (PERCEIVABLE FROM THE GREATER RESISTANCE OF THE LEVER). IF

THIS EMPTY STROKE IS MISSING, PRESSURE IS FORMED IN THE BRAKING

SYSTEM AND THE CONSEQUENCE CAN BE LACK OF FUNCTIONING OF THE

FRONT WHEEL BRAKE DUE TO OVERHEATING OR BLOCKING OF THE WHEEL

ITSELF.

46

The reservoir is part of the front brake pump positioned on the handlebar and has an inspection window: with the tank in the horizontal position, the fluid level must never fall below the centreline on the inspection window.

The SMR/SMM/SMX models are an exception as they have an independent transparent plastic tank .

Also in this case, the fluid level must never fall below half of the tank .

DANGER

IF THE LEVEL OF BRAKE LIQUID FALLS BELOW THE MINIMUM VALUE, IT

INDICATES A LEAK IN THE BRAKING SYSTEM OR CONSUMPTION OF BRAKE

PADS BEYOND THE ACCEPTED LIMITS.

3

Remove the screws (2) and remove the lid (3) and the membrane (4).

Place the front brake pump in a horizontal position and top-up the brake fluid to 5 mm below the upper edge of the container. Re-mount membrane, lid and screws. Wash any spilled brake fluid away with water.

Where the tank is separate, unscrew the cap and remove the membrane. Repeat the top-up operation as mentioned above.

Wash any spilled brake fluid away with water.

DANGER

- KEEP BRAKE FLUID OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN.

- BRAKE FLUID MAY IRRITATE THE SKIN. DO NOT ALLOW IT TO TOUCH

SKIN OR EYES. IF THE BRAKE FLUID SHOULD ACCIDENTLY SPRAY INTO

THE EYES, RINSE WELL WITH WATER AND SEEK MEDICAL ASSISTANCE.

Correct tension of the spokes is very important for the stability of the wheel and therefore safety on the road. An insufficiently taught spoke leads to unbalancing of the wheel and in brief time loosening of other spokes. Regularly check the tension of the spokes, particularly on new motorcycles. Briefly hit every spoke with the end of a screwdriver (see photo): the spoke should produce a clear sound. Hollow sounds mean loose spokes. In this case you must have the spokes adjusted in a specialised workshop. The wheel must also be centred.

DANGER

- IF YOU CONTINUE TRAVELLING WITH INSUFFICIENTLY TIGHT SPOKES,

THEY MAY TEAR CAUSING PROBLEMS OF INSTABILITY.

- EXCESSIVELY TIGHT SPOKES MAY TEAR DUE TO LOCAL OVERLOADING.

The type, the state and the pressure of the tyres condition the motorcycle’s behaviour on the road and they must be checked before every journey.

- The dimension of the tyres is indicated in the technical data and in the registration paper.

- The state of the tyres must be controlled before every journey.

Check the tyres by verifying that they are not cut, have nails or other sharp objects pushed into them.

Regarding the minimum depth of the profile, respect the regulations in force in your country. We recommend that the tyres are changed at the latest, when the profile has reached a depth of 2 mm.

- The tyre air pressure must be checked regularly when the tyres are

“cold”. Correct adjustment of the pressure guarantees optimal comfort when travelling and maximum duration of the tyre.

and opened the fuse-holder, it is possible to access the fuse.

The fuse has a capacity of 7.5 ampere.

This fuse protects the following:

- lighting system

- direction indicator

- acoustic warning device

A burned out fuse must be replaced exclusively with an equivalent one.

If the new fuse should also burn out once mounted, contact a specialised TM workshop.

The water pump (1) housed in the engine induces forced circulation of the coolant liquid.

There is no thermostat in the system, therefore, when the engine is cold, it is important to moderate the number of revs. of the engine and speed. Proceed for at least 5 minutes at half throttle and at reduced pace to allow the engine to reach an adequate working temperature.

Cooling takes place thanks to the passage of air through the fins of the radiator, the lower the speed, the less the cooling effect. Dirty radiator fins also decrease the cooling effect.

The pressure caused by the high liquid temperature is adjusted by a valve on the radiator cap (2); it is possible to reach temperatures of

120°C without problems.

DANGER

- CHECK THE LEVEL OF THE COOLANT LIQUID WHEN THE ENGINE IS COLD.

IF YOU MUST REMOVE THE RADIATOR CAP WHEN THE ENGINE IS HOT,

COVER IT WITH A CLOTH AND OPEN SLOWLY TO RELEASE THE

PRESSURE. ATTENTION, BURNS HAZARD!

- DO NOT DISCONNECT THE RADIATOR HOSES WHEN THE ENGINE IS HOT.

THE COOLANT LIQUID AND THE HOT STEAM THAT ESCAPE, MAY CAU-

SE SERIOUS BURNS.

- IF YOU ARE BURNED, PUT THE INTERESTED PART UNDER COLD RUNNING

WATER.

- THE COOLANT IS TOXIC! THEREFORE PRESERVE IT OUT OF THE REACH

OF CHILDREN.

- IF YOU SWALLOW COOLANT, SEEK MEDICAL ADVICE IMMEDIATELY.

- IF THE COOLANT HITS THE EYES, RINSE IMMEDITAELY WITH COLD WATER

AND SEEK MEDICAL ADVICE.

The coolant liquid is a mixture of antifreeze at 40% and water at 60%.The

antifreeze protection limit must however be at least -25°C. This mixture offers protection against freezing as well as a good protection against corrosion and therefore should not be replaced by pure water.

WARNING

- AFTER THE COOLANT LIQUID HAS BEEN EMPTIED, WHEN RE-FILLING IT IS

NECEESARY TO BLEED THE COOLING SYSTEM (SEE NEXT PAGE).

- ALWAYS USE GOOD QUALITY PRODUCTS TO PREVENT CORROSION OR

FOAM.

- IN EXTREME WEATHER CONDITIONS OR IN STOP-AND-GO TRAFFIC,

OVERHEATING MAY OCCUR. TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM, AN

ELECTROVENTILATOR KIT IS AVAILABLE FOR ALL MODELS WITH ELECTRIC

STARTER (ASK AT YOUR TM AUTHORISED DEALER).

57

When the engine is cold, the liquid must cover the radiator channels by at least 10 mm. If the circuit is emptied, fill it immediately and bleed.

WARNING

WHEN THE COOLANT LIQUID HAS BEEN EMPTIED, WHEN RE-FILLING IT IS NEC-

ESSARY TO BLEED THE COOLING SYSTEM (SEE BELOW).

EMPTYING, FILLING AND BLEEDING OF THE

COOLING SY STEM

The coolant liquid may be emptied by removing the screw (5) from the water pump cover on the right side of the engine. Prepare an adequate container to collect the liquid when it comes out. To empty the liquid, the filling cap must be opened. At the end, screw the emptying screw and tighten to 12 Nm.

To fill the cooling system, pour the amount of coolant liquid indicated in the “Engine Technical Data” Table, through the inlet. Close the radiator cap and start-up the engine for a few seconds. Re-open the cap and check the level: add more liquid if necessary.

After a brief journey, check the level of coolant liquid again.

REPLACEMENT OF EXHAUST SILENCER

P A CKING MA TERIAL

The aluminium silencers are filled with acoustic insulating material

(fibreglass) to limit motorcycle noise. Because of high temperatures reached by the exhaust gases, the fibreglass tends to burn, leading to a decrease in the effect of noise absorbtion and also causing a decrease in power.

To replace the fibreglass, disassemble the silencer from the motorcycle frame, remove the rivets (1) that support the front cap (2) and slide the cap and the wool to be replaced out.

In END/SMM/SMR models, the fibreglass cartridge (3) must be cut to a length of about 35 cm (weight 350 grammes) while in the other models it is inserted whole.

Slide the fiberglass cartridge on the punched pipe (4) and push it all into the silencer. Hold the clamp and fasten with rivets.

Never disassemble the rear cap (5), it is not necessary and you run the risk of damaging the silencer.

DANGER

WHEN THE ENGINE IS RUNNING THE EXHAUST SYSTEM BECOMES VERY

HOT. ONLY START TO WORK ON THE EXHAUST SYSTEM WHEN IT HAS

COOLED DOWN, TO PREVENT BURNS.

To ease mounting of the silencer, grease the ends of the pipes.

Also fix the retaining spring between the pipe and the silencer.

When the engine is started-up it might generate some smoke from the previously greased parts. This is caused by the high temperature that melts the grease.

58

WARNING

REPLACE THE FIBREGLASS CARTRIDGE WITH A NEW ONE OF THE SAME WEIGHT

OR BOUGHT AT A TM AUTHORISED DEALER.

AIR FIL TER

A dirty air filter jeopardises the filtering of air, reducing engine power and increasing fuel consumption. In some cases, the dust can even reach the engine causing derious damage. For this reason, maintenance of the filter should be carried out regularly.

Remove the seat to access the filter and lift the battery holder.

To remove the filter, unscrew the finger screw positioned at the centre of the filter and carefully slide it the filter out of its case.

WARNING

- DO NOT CLEAN THE FOAM FILTER WITH FUEL OR KEROSENE, WHICH CAN

CORRODE IT. FOR CORRECT MAINTENANCE OF THE FOAM FILTER, USE THE

RELEVANT PRODUCTS ON THE MARKET FOR CLEANING AND LUBRICATION.

- NEVER START-UP THE MOTORCYCLE WITHOUT THE AIR FILTER. THE

INFILTRATION OF DUST AND DIRT CAN CAUSE DAMAGE AND INCREASE

WEAR.

Wash the filter carefully using a special liquid detergent and dry well: squeeze the filter slightly but do not wring it. Also clean the filter case and check that the rubber manifold that connects the carburetor to the filter case is integral and positioned correctly.

Remount the air filter, positioning it correctly on the rest surface, taking care that edges of the filter are not raised or not adherent with the rest surface.

Rescrew the finger screw and tighten it adequately.

CHECK HAND DECOMPRESSOR ADJUST..... (A)

(ALL 530 AND 660 CC. MODELS)

Take the crankshaft to the TDC with closed valves and activate the hand decompressor. A free play of about 5mm. must be perceived on the end of the lever. The end of the free play is recognised by the hardening of the lever that starts to open the right exhaust valve. Adjust the free play if necessary. To adjust: push the protective hood backwards, loosen the counter-nut (1) and loosen or unscrew the adjustment screw (2). Tighten the counter-nut and replace the protective hood.

WARNING

IF THERE IS NO FREE PLAY ON THE DECOMPRESSION LEVER, THE ENGINE

COULD BE DAMAGED.

INDICATION:

The automatic decompressor does not require adjustment.

59

The throttle command should always have a free play of 3-5 mm.

Moreover, when the engine is idling, the revs must not vary when steering as far as possible to the left and to the right. To adjust the play, remove the saddle and the tank with the shrouds. Push the protection hood backwards (3). Loosen the counter-nut (4) and unscrew or screw the adjustment device (5). By screwing, the free play increases. By unscrewing, the free play decreases.

Tighten the counter-nut and control the smoothness of the the throttle command handlebar grip. Remount the tank and saddle.

When the engine is not running, do not open and close the throttle grip more than 1-2 times: every time it is opened it activates the accelerator pump. This could flood the engine.

ADJUSTMENT OF CLUTCH LEVER BASIC

POSITION

Use the adjustment screw (1) to adjust the basic position of the clutch lever. In this way the optimal position for the clutch lever can be found for any hand size. If the adjustment screw is turned clockwise, the clutch lever approaches the handlebar. If the adjustment screw is turned anticlockwise, the clutch lever moves away form the handle bar.

The adjustment screw (2) is used to adjust the pump run after having adjusted the position of the lever.

WARNING

THE RANGE OF ADJUSTMENT IS LIMITED. ONLY TURN THE ADJUSTMENT

SCREW MANUALLY WITHOUT FORCE.

The reservoir is part of the clutch pump positioned on the handlebar and has an inspection window: with the reservoir in a horizontal position, the level of the fluid must never fall below the centreline of the window, nor be above the upper margin. If it is necessary to top-up the oil, remove the screws (2) and then the cover (3) together with the rubber seal (4). Keeping the reservoir in a horizontal position,top-up with DOT4 brake fluid.

WARNING

- FOR THE HYDRAULIC COMMAND OF THE CLUTCH, TM USES DOT4 BRAKE

FLUID, NEVER USE DOT5 OR OTHER.

- DO NOT ALLOW BRAKE FLUID TO COME INTO CONTACT WITH PAINTED

PARTS. THE BRAKE FLUID CORRODES THE PAINT !

- ONLY USE CLEAN BRAKE FLUID OUT OF HERMETICALLY-SEALED

CONTAINERS.

4

The cover of the clutch pump must be removed for bleeding. Remove the screws (2) and remove the cover (3) together with the rubber seal

(4). The clutch cylinder bleeding nipple on the engine (5) must be connected to the relevant suction device and this must be activated.

Loosen the bleeding nipple at the same time. Continue until no more air escapes from the nipple, only oil. Tighten the nipple. Disconnect the suction device. During the operation control that the level in the clutch pump reservoir is always sufficient and prevent the pump from taking up air. If necessary, top-up with DOT4 brake fluid.

WARNING

CARBURETOR - IDLE SPEED ADJUSTMENT (A)

The adjustment of the idle speed greatly influences the engine start, this means that an engine with the idle speed correctly adjusted will be easier to start than an engine with an incorrect idle speed.

The idle speed is adjusted using the adjustment knob (1) and the mixture adjustment screw (2). The adjustment knob is used to adjust the basic position of the throttle valve. The mixture adjustment screw is used to adjust the mixture for the idle speed, which flows through the idle speed system up to the engine. By turning in a clockwise direction, the quantity of fuel decreases (lean mixture), by turning in an anticlockwise direction, the quantity of fuel increases (rich mixture).

TO SET IDLE SPEED FUNCTIONING CORRECTLY, PROCEED AS

FOLLOWS:

1 Screw the mixture adjustment screw (2) until it stops, without force, then unscrew it untill you obtain the basic adjustment envisioned by

TM (see Engine Technical Data).

2 Warm-up the engine

3 Use the adjustment knob (1) to adjust the number of revs. of the normal idle speed (1600 - 1800/min).

4 Slowly turn the mixture adjustment screw (2) in a clockwise direction until the number of revs of the idle speed begins to decrease. Keep this position in mind and now turn the mixture adjustment screw slowly in an anticlockwise direction until the number of revs of the idle speed begins to decrease again. Set the point between these two positions in which the number of idle speed revs is highest. If there is a notable increase in the number of revs., reduce the number of revs to the normal level using the adjustment knob (1) and repeat the procedure from point 4. Anyone using the motorcycle for pure racing will set a leaner mixture of about 1/4 of a turn (in a clockwise direction) with respect to the ideal value, because the engine will become hotter than normal.

NOTE: If the described methods are followed and satisfying results are not obtained, the cause could be a Pilot jet with unsuitable dimensions.

a) If the mix adjustment screw is screwed right down without variation of the number of revs of the idle speed, a smaller Pilot jet must be installed.

b) If the engine switches off with the mix adjustment screw still open by two turns, a larger Pilot jet must be installed. Obviously, after the jet has been replaced, adjustment must be carried out again from the beginning.

5 Now, adjust the number of revs. of the idle speed desired using the adjustment knob.

6 In presence of large variations of external temperature and altitude, the idle speed must be set again.

To adjust the idle speed mixture screw, a very short screwdriver may be required. Notches may be useful on the handgrip.

B ASIC INDICA TIONS REGARDING CARB URET OR

The throttle valve, jet needle, needle jet (when present) and the float needle valve are subject to great wear caused by engine vibration. As a consequence the carburetor may malfunction (e.g. enrichening of the mixture). These parts must therefore be controlled after 200 hours.

61

CHECK FUEL LEVEL

(FL A T HEIGHT) (A)

Disassemble the carburetor and remove the float bowl. Turn the carburetor upside-down and keep it inclined so that the float rests on the needle valve but does not compress the spring with its weight.

In this position, use a gauge to measure the distance between the apex of the float body and the float bowl surface on the carburetor body

(see image).

Refer to the technical data for the correct value for your motorcycle.

If necessary, adjust the height by slightly bending the float adjustment plate (4).

If possible, also check the tightness and the state of wear of the needle valve cone: if in doubt replace the valve and brass seat.

Mount the float bowl, mount the carburetor and adjust the idle speed.

THE CARB URET OR FL O A T BO WL

After washing or driving in wet environments (watercourses, etc.) the carburetor float bowl should be emptied to remove any water that may have entered. Water in the float bowl causes working problems. Carry this operation out when the engine is cold. Close the fuel tap and place a container underneath the carburetor to collect the fuel coming out.

Now open the screw (1) to empty the fuel and water. Re-close the screw, open the fuel tap and control tightness of the system.

DANGER

- THE FUEL IS HIGHLY INFLAMMABLE AND TOXIC. HANDLE THE FUEL

WITH CARE. NEVER CARRY OUT OPERATIONS ON THE FUEL SYSTEM

NEAR TO FLAMES OR CIGARETTES.

- ALWAYS ALLOW THE ENGINE TO COOL. USE A CLOTH TO REMOVE ANY

OVERFLOWING FUEL. MATERIALS IMPREGNATED WITH FUEL ARE ALSO

HIGHLY INFLAMMABLE. IF YOU SWALLOW FUEL OR IT COMES INTO

CONTACT WITH THE EYES, CONSULT A DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY.

- DISPOSE OF FUEL ACCORDING TO THE REGULATIONS ENVISIONED IN

YOUR COUNTRY.

The delivery pump (3) sucks the oil through the net filter (4) from the sump. The oil is delivered pressurised through a pipe (5) to the filter cartridge where it is purified from all particles and delivered partly to the crankshaft and partly to the distribution and gearbox.

The oil delivered to the crankshaft enters through a co-axial pipe into the shaft and finally lubricating the big end bearing (6).

The oil delivered to the distribution and gears is made to ascend to the top of the crankcases and, before entering the cylinder, it divides again.

A part is channeled towards the gearbox, of which it lubricates, through a distributor (7), the gear toothing.

Another part passes through a spray nozzle towards the small end (8) for lubrication of the piston pin.

Finally, another part is channeld along the cylinder and through a relevant hole and arrives at the camshafts bearings and to the contact area between the cam lobes and valve lifters (9-10).

All pressurised oil delivered to the main parts of the engine is returned by fall and depression to the point in which the drainage pump is found

(11) which collects the oil and send it back to the oil sump.

Note that the oil sump is separate from the rotating parts of the engine

(dry sump) but integrated in the casting of the crankcases.

The oil circulation is made only by channels machined inside the engine, without using external hoses.

The engine oil level must be checked when the engine is running.

Start-up the motorcycle on flat ground and keep it in a vertical position

(not on the side stand). The oil window is located on the right side of the engine of all the models but the the 660 SMX in which the oil window is located on the left side (see picture).

Start-up the engine and keep it at a constant speed, a little above the idle speed: the oil level must be visible from 1/2 to 3/4 of the window positioned on the right side of the motorcycle. If it is too low or cannot be seen at all, top-up immediately with engine oil. Use the same type that has already been introduced into the engine.

WARNING

LOW OIL LEVEL, LOW QUALITY OIL, MAINTENANCE INTERVALS LONGER THAN

THOSE ESTABLISHED, CAUSE SERIOUS DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE .

Only use top-quality, completely synthetic SAE10W-50 oils, which correspond to or exceed the quality standards of theAPI - SG or SH classes (indications on container).

DANGER

THE ENGINE AT WORKING TEMPERATURE AND THE OIL INSIDE ARE VERY

HOT - PAY ATTENTION, BURNS HAZARD.

Position the motorcycle on a flat surface, loosen and unscrew the cap

(1) positioned on the lower face of the engine and allow the oil to flow into a container.

BEWARE OF HOT OIL!

Clean the cap and incorporated magnet well.

After the oil has flowed out completely, clean the sealing face, remount the cap together with the seal and tighten at 20 Nm. Replace the seal if it is damaged.

63

REPLACEMENT OF OIL FILTER CARTRIDGE

(after having emptied the oil from the engine)

The cartridge oil filter is situated on the right side of the motorcycle underneath the cover(1). Place a container under the engine to collect the oil that escapes from the filter compartment. Loosen the two screws

(2), remove the cover and extract the filter cartridge.

Wait until the oil has drained completely, then clean the sealing surfaces of the transmission cover and filter cover, check the O-Ring and replace it if necessary.

Insert a new filter cartridge, making sure that the open side is towards the outside of the engine. The filter must slide into the transmission cover as far as possible in its seat.

64

Remount the cover, being careful to the O-Ring and to insert the filter cover nose correctly into the hole of the filter cartridge. Greasing the O-

Ring with a small amount of grease helps to keep it in its seat when assembling.

Tighten the screws at 10Nm.

REMEMBER THAT THE FILTER CARTRIDGE CANNOT BE CLEANED,

IT MUST BE REPLACED AT THE ENVISIONED INTERVALS.

Prepare a measuring beaker with 1.4 (1.0 for 660 SMX) Litres of fully synthetic engine oil of the established type (see engine data). Unscrew the oil load cap and fill with about 0.8 Litres.

Close the cap temporarily, start-up the engine and allow it to run for about 5 seconds. DO NOT ALLOW IT TO RUN LONGER TO PREVENT

DAMAGE.

Re-open the cap and finish filling with the oil remaining in the measuring beaker.

A total of 1.4 (1.0 for 660 SMX) Litres of oil has been introduced.

Tighten the cap at 20Nm.

Start the engine and check tightness of the filling and emptying caps, the net filter cap and the filter cartridge cover.

Finally, check the engine oil level and correct it if necessary.

Clean the motorcycle regularly in a way to maintain the surface of the plastic parts in good condition.

To do this, it is advised to use hot water with a detergent and sponge. Most of the dirt can be removed using weak water jets.

WARNING

NEVER CLEAN THE MOTORCYCLE WITH HIGH PRESSURE CLEANING DEVICES OR WITH STRONG JETS OF WATER! BECAUSE OF THE HIGH

PRESSURE THE WATER COULD REACH THE ELECTRICAL PARTS, CONNECTORS, FLEXIBLE CABLE COMMANDS, BEARINGS, THE CARBURETOR

ETC... AND CAUSE FAULTS OR PREMATURE BREAKAGE OF THESE PARTS.

- Before washing, close the exhaust pipe rear end to prevent water from entering.

- Normal soaps, found on the market, should be used to clean the motorcycle. Particularly dirty parts should be cleaned using a brush.

- After having rinsed the motorcycle well, using a weak jet of water, dry using compressed air and a cloth. Empty the carburetor bowl. Immediately after, make a brief journey until the engine has reached the normal working temperature and at this point activate the brakes. Because of the heat, the water that is left in the unreachable points and on the brakes will evaporate.

- After the motorcycle has cooled down, oil and grease all motion parts and bearings. Treat the chain with an appropriate spray.

Also oil the fuel tap.

- To prevent faults in the electric system, treat the emergency shutdown button, the engine stop button, the light switch and the connectors with contact spray.

PRECA UTION FOR WINTER USE

If the motorcycle is also used in winter it is necessary to consider the salt on the roads and appropriate countermeasures must be taken against the salt aggressiveness.

- The motorcycle must be cleaned well after use and left to dry.

- Treat engine, carburetor, swing arm and all other bright or galvanised components (except brake disc) with wax-based anticorrosives.

DANGER

PREVENT CONTACT OF THE ANTICORROSIVE WITH BRAKE DISCS. THIS CAUSES GREAT REDUCTION IN THE BRAKING EFFECT.

WARNING

AFTER TRAVELLING ON ROADS WHERE SALT HAS BEEN SPREAD, WASH THE MOTORCYCLE WELL WITH COLD WATER AND LEAVE IT TO DRY.

ST ORA GE

If the motorcycle is not to be used for a long time, take the following measures:

- Clean the motorcycle well (see CLEANING chapter)

- Change the engine oil and oil filter cartridge, clean the net filter (old oil contains dangerous impurities).

- Check the antifreeze and the quantity of the coolant.

- Warm the engine up again, close the fuel tap and wait until the engine stops.

Successively open the carburetor bowl empty screw to empty the remaining fuel.

- Disassemble the spark plug and pour into the plug hole 5 cc of oil. Activate the kickstart pedal 10 times to distribute the engine oil onto the walls of the cylinder and then remount the spark plug.

- Bring the piston in compression to induce valve closure

- Empty the fuel tank, collecting the fuel in an appropriate container.

- Adjust tyre pressure.

- Grease bearings or command lever supports, footrests, etc. and also the chain. Disassemble the battery and charge it (see

BATTERY chapter). Store it disassembled from the motorcycle.

- The place of storage should be dry and not subject to large temperature changes.

- Cover the motorcycle with a sheet or cover that allows air to pass. Do not use materials that do not allow the passage of air, as humidity would not be able to escape and could cause oxidation.

WARNING

IT IS NOT ADVISED TO START THE ENGINE FOR SHORT TIMES. THE ENGINE WOULD NOT HEAT UP SUFFICIENTLY, AND THEREFORE THE STEAM

CREATED DURING THE COMBUSTION PROCESS WOULD CONDENSE CAUSING THE OXIDATION OF THE EXHAUST VALVES.

START-UP AFTER SEASONAL PAUSE

- Mount the charged battery (pay attention to polarity)

- Fill the tank with new fuel

- Control the motorcycle as before any start-up (see “Instructions for use” chapter) - Make a short inspection trip.

WARNING: Before storing the motorcycle for the season, check functioning and wear of all components. If maintenance operations, repairs or modifications are necessary, it is a good idea to have them carried out during the winter time (less busy workshops). In this way it is possible to avoid long waits in the workshop at the beginning of the spring season.
