General
Remove the ignition key to prevent unintentional movements during lubrication.
When lubricating with an oilcan, it ought to be filled with engine oil.
When lubricating with grease, unless otherwise stated, grease 503 98 96-01 or another chassis or ball
bearing grease offering good corrosion protection shall be used.
With daily use, the Rider should be lubricated twice weekly.
Wipe away excess grease after lubrication.
It is important to avoid getting lubricant on the belts or the drive surfaces on the belt pulleys. Should this
happen, attempt to clean them with spirits. If the belt continues to slip after cleaning with spirits, it must be
replaced. Petrol or other petroleum products must not be used to clean belts.
Lubricating the Cables
Grease both ends of the cables and move the controls to end stop positions when lubricating. Re-attach the
rubber covers on the cables after lubrication. Cables with sheaths will jam if they are not lubricated regularly.
Binding in a cable may cause malfunction such as partial braking.
If a cable binds, remove the cable and hang it vertically. Lubricate it with thin engine oil until the oil begins to
escape from the bottom. Tip: Fill a small plastic bag with oil and tape it so that it seals against the casing and
allow the cable to hang vertically from the bag overnight. If you do not succeed in lubricating the cable, it
must be replaced.
