Lubricating The Chain - SWM Superdual 2017 Manuel - Utilisation - Entretien

LUBRICATING THE CHAIN

Lubricate the chain (4) following these instructions.
CAUTION*: Never use grease to lubricate the
chain. Grease helps to accumulate dust and
mud, which act as abrasive and help to rapidly
wear out the chain, the front and rear sprock-
ets.
Washing the chain with O-rings
Wash using petroleum, naphtha or paraffin oil.
Never use fuel, trichloroethylene or solvents, as the
O-rings may get damaged.
Use instead special sprays for chains with O-rings.
