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
Was using specific sprays for chains with OR
rings;do not use fuel, trichlorethylene or solvents so
as not to damage the OR rings.
Alternatively, was using petroleum, naphta or liquid
paraffin.
Lubricating the chain with O-rings
Using specific sprays with the aid of a brush, lubri-
cate the metal and rubber parts (OR) both internally
and externally; alternatively use engine oil with SAE
