This section describes the general specifications of the vehicle.

Rules

This section describes general safety rules for any maintenance operations performed on the vehicle.

Safety rules

- If work can only be done on the vehicle with the engine running, make sure that the premises are well-

ventilated, using special extractors if necessary; never let the engine run in an enclosed area. Exhaust

fumes are toxic.

- The battery electrolyte contains sulphuric acid. Protect your eyes, clothes and skin. Sulphuric acid is

highly corrosive; in the event of contact with your eyes or skin, rinse thoroughly with abundant water

and seek immediate medical attention.

- The battery produces hydrogen, a gas that can be highly explosive. Do not smoke and avoid sparks

or flames near the battery, especially when charging it.

- Fuel is highly flammable and it can be explosive given some conditions. Do not smoke in the working

area, and avoid naked flames or sparks.

- Clean the brake pads in a well-ventilated area, directing the jet of compressed air in such a way that

you do not breathe in the dust produced by the wear of the friction material. Even though the latter

contains no asbestos, inhaling dust is harmful.

Maintenance rules

- Use original PIAGGIO spare parts and lubricants recommended by the Manufacturer. Non-original or

non-conforming spares may damage the vehicle.

- Use only the appropriate tools designed for this vehicle.

- Always use new gaskets, sealing rings and split pins upon refitting.

- After removal, clean the components using non-flammable or low flash-point solvents. Lubricate all

the work surfaces, except tapered couplings, before refitting these parts.

- After refitting, make sure that all the components have been installed correctly and work properly.

- For removal, overhaul and refit operations use only tools with metric measures. Metric bolts, nuts and

screws are not interchangeable with coupling members with English sizes. Using unsuitable coupling

members and tools may damage the scooter.

- When carrying out maintenance operations on the vehicle that involve the electrical system, make

sure the electric connections have been made properly, particularly the ground and battery connections.

Checks and inspections

Checks to be made in the case of ignition irregularities and/or no spark on the spark plug

1. Check the condition of the spark plug (clean it with a metal brush, remove the encrustations, blast

it with compressed air and, if necessary, replace it).

2. Without removing the stator, carry out the following checks:

CHECK ON THE PICK UPSpecification Desc./Quantity

1 Red and white cable 90±140 ohm

After visually checking the electrical wiring, perform measurements on the loading reel, the pickup (see

chart) and the continuity using the appropriate tester.

If checks on the loading reel, pickup and continuity show abnormalities, replace the stator; otherwise

replace the central unit. Remember that disconnections due to replacement of the central unit must be

done with the engine off.

Ignition circuit

All the control operations of the system that require

the disconnection of cables (checks of the con-

nections and the devices making up the ignition

circuit) must be done with the engine off: if this is

not done, the controls might be irreparably dam-

aged.

Stator check

- Using a tester, check the resistance between the

red-ground and green-ground terminal.N.B.VALUES ARE STATED AT AMBIENT TEMPERATURE. ACHECK WITH THE STATOR AT OPERATING TEMPERA-TURE LEADS TO VALUES HIGHER THAN THOSE STATED.

Voltage regulator check

The malfunctioning of the voltage regulator might cause the following problems depending on the type

of fault:

1. The lighting system bulbs burn out.

2. The lighting system bulbs stop working.

3. The battery overcharges (the main fuse blows).

4. Non-recharging of the battery.

5. Non functioning of the turn indicators.

Operations

FAULT 1

Replace the regulator because it is definitely faul-

ty.

FAULT 2

Make sure the bulbs work properly.

With the vehicle running check for battery voltage

on the yellow-black wire of the high beam/low

beam switch. If there is no voltage make sure volt-

age is coming correctly from the stator: without

disconnecting the regulator connector and with the

vehicle running, use a tester to measure the alter-

nate voltages between the connection of the grey-

blue wire and black wire make sure it is within the

indicated values, if not replace the stator.

If no irregularities occur during these checks re-

place the regulator.

If replacement of the regulator does not restore

correct operation, carry out the checks of the elec-

trical system.

Specific tooling020331Y Digital multimeter

CharacteristicVoltage distributed at 3000 rpms25 to 30V

FAULT 3

After checking that there are no short circuits in the system towards the earth, replace the regulator

because it is certainly inefficient and replace it with a protective fuse.

Following the replacement, measure the current and the recharging voltage on the battery end.

Electrical system DNA 50

ELE SYS - 52

Page 53: Gilera DNA 50 (EN)

FAULT 4

Start the vehicle and make sure that when the

tester is placed between the connection of the red

wire and yellow one on the stator, the voltage de-

livered by the generator is within the indicated

value. In the event of a fault check the continuity

of the stator or continue with the checks.

Insert an ammeter between the stator (red wire)

and the battery and use a tester to make sure that

the current delivered at 3000 rpm and the battery

maintained between 12 and 13 V is as indicated.

If the measured values are lower than those pre-

scribed, replace the regulator otherwise replace

the battery.N.B.BEFORE CARRYING OUT THE CHECKS ON THE REGU-LATOR AND RELATIVE SYSTEM, IT IS ALWAYS GOODPRACTICE TO CHECK THAT THERE IS CONTINUITY BE-TWEEN THE BLACK CABLE AND THE GROUND.N.B.TO KEEP THE BATTERY BETWEEN 12 AND 13V, CAUSINGCURRENT ABSORPTION BY THE SYSTEM, A 12V - 35WBULB CONNECTED BETWEEN THE + BATTERY ANDGROUND CAN BE USED.

FAULT 5

If the turn indicators do not work, do the following:

• Without removing the connector from

the voltage regulator, move the key-

controlled switch to ON and verify the

presence of intermittent voltage be-

tween contact 7 and the ground. If

there is voltage, the failure must be at-

tributed to the flashing indicator switch

DNA 50 Electrical system

ELE SYS - 53

Page 54: Gilera DNA 50 (EN)

or the wiring, otherwise carry on with

tests.

• With the engine off, remove the regu-

lator connector, and insert the ends of

the tester between contact 5 and the

ground.

• Move the key controlled switch to ON

and check there is battery voltage. If no

voltage is detected, check the wiring

and the contacts on the key switch and

on the battery.

• Repeat the same procedure with the

ends of the tester inserted between

contact 5 (+) and 6 (-) and check the

presence of the battery voltage with the

key switch at on. If this does not hap-

pen, check the regulator's ground ca-

ble.

• If these last two tests have a positive result replace the regulator because it is certainly not

functioning properly.

Specific tooling020331Y Digital multimeter

Fuses

The electrics are protected by a fuse located on

the right side next to the battery well. To replace it,

remove the transparent protection mounted on the

fuse holder. The ignition system, front headlight

and rear taillight are not protected by fuses.CAUTION

BEFORE REPLACING THE BLOWN FUSE,SEARCH AND ELIMINATE THE BREAKDOWNTHAT HAS LED TO THE BLOW OUT.NEVER TRY TO REPLACE A FUSE USING DIF-FERENT MATERIAL (FOR EXAMPLE A PIECEOF ELECTRIC WIRE) OR A FUSE FOR A HIGH-ER AMPERAGE THAN THE INDICATED ONE.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR REFRESHING THE STOCK CHARGE OF AN OPEN CIRCUIT

1) Voltage check

Before installing the battery on the vehicle, check the open circuit voltage with a normal tester.

- If the voltage exceeds 12.60 V, the battery may be installed without any renewal recharge.

- If voltage is below 12.60 V, a renewal recharge is required as explained in 2).

2) Constant voltage battery charge mode

-Constant voltage equal to 14.40÷14.70V

-Initial charge voltage equal to 0.3÷0.5 for nominal capacity

-Duration of the charge: 10 to 12 h recommended

Minimum 6 h

Maximum 24 h

3) Constant current battery charge mode

-Charge current equal to 1/10 of the nominal capacity of the battery

-Duration of the charge: 5 hWARNING

-WHEN THE BATTERY IS REALLY FLAT (WELL BELOW 12.6V) IT MIGHT BE THAT 5 HOURS OFRECHARGING ARE NOT ENOUGH TO ACHIEVE OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE.IN THESE CONDITIONS IT IS HOWEVER ESSENTIAL NOT TO EXCEED EIGHT HOURS OF CON-TINUOUS RECHARGING SO AS NOT TO DAMAGE THE BATTERY ITSELF.

Dry-charge batteryWARNING

THE BATTERY ELECTROLYTE IS POISONOUS AS IT MAY CAUSE SERIOUS BURNS. IT CON-TAINS SULPHURIC ACID. AVOID CONTACT WITH THE EYES, THE SKIN AND CLOTHING. IFCOMING INTO CONTACT WITH EYES OR SKIN, WASH ABUNDANTLY WITH WATER FOR AP-PROX. 15 MIN. AND SEEK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION.IN THE EVENT OF ACCIDENTAL INGESTION OF THE LIQUID, IMMEDIATELY DRINK LARGEQUANTITIES OF WATER OR MILK, MAGNESIUM MILK, BATTERED EGG OR VEGETABLE OIL.SEEK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION.THE BATTERIES PRODUCE EXPLOSIVE GAS; KEEP CLEAR OF NAKED FLAMES, SPARKS ORCIGARETTES; VENTILATE THE AREA WHEN RECHARGING INDOORS.ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION WHEN WORKING IN THE PROXIMITY OF BATTERIES.KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN

Use of dry-cell batteries :

1. Having removed the short, closed tube and removed the caps, put into the elements sulphuric

acid of the type for specific weight 1.26 accumulators corresponding to 30° Bé at a temperature

of no less than 15°, until you reach the upper level.

DNA 50 Electrical system

ELE SYS - 55

Page 56: Gilera DNA 50 (EN)

2. Leave to stand for at least 2 hours; afterwards top-up to the level with sulphuric acid.

3. Within twenty four hours, recharge with the special (single or multiple) battery charger that re-

charges at an intensity the same as approximately 1/10 the rated capacity of the said battery. At

the end of the charge, make sure that the density of the acid is around 1.27, corresponding to 31°

Bé and that these values are stabilised.

4. Once the charge is over, level the acid (by adding distilled water). Close and clean carefully.

5. Once the above operations have been performed, install the battery in the vehicle ensuring that

it is wired up properly..WARNING- ONCE THE BATTERY HAS BEEN INSTALLED IN THE VEHICLE IT IS NECESSARY TO REPLACETHE SHORT TUBE (WITH CLOSED END) NEAR THE + POSITIVE TERMINAL WITH THE CORRE-SPONDING LONG TUBE (WITH OPEN END), THAT YOU FIND FITTED TO THE VEHICLE, TOENSURE THAT THE GASES THAT FORM CAN ESCAPE PROPERLY.

3 The float must be freed

Battery maintenance

The battery is an electrical device which requires careful monitoring and diligent maintenance. The

maintenance rules are:

1) Check the level of the electrolyte

The electrolyte level must be checked frequently and must reach the upper level. Only use distilled

water, to restore this level. If it is necessary to add water too frequently, check the vehicle's electrical

system: the battery works overcharged and is subject to quick wear.

2)Load status check

After restoring the electrolyte level, check its density using an appropriate densitometer (see the figure).

When the battery is charged, you should detect a density of 30 to 32 Bé corresponding to a specific

weight of 1.26 to 1.28 at a temperature of no lower than 15° C.

A density reading of less than 20° Bé indicates that the battery is completely flat and it must therefore

be recharged.

If the scooter is not used for a given time (1 month or more) it will be necessary to periodically recharge

the battery.

Electrical system DNA 50

ELE SYS - 56

Page 57: Gilera DNA 50 (EN)

The battery runs down completely in the course of three months. If it is necessary to refit the battery in

the vehicle, be careful not to reverse the connections, remembering that the ground wire (black) marked

(-) must be connected to the -negative clamp while the other two red wires marked (+) must be con-

nected to the clamp marked with the +positive sign.

3) Recharging the battery

Remove the battery from the vehicle removing the negative clamp first.

The normal bench charging must be carried out with the specific (single or multiple) battery charger,

placing the battery charger selector on the type of battery to be recharged. The connections to the power

supply must be made by connecting to the corresponding poles (+ with+ and -with -).

4) Battery cleaning

The battery should always be kept clean, especially on its top side, and the terminals should be coated

with Vaseline.WARNING

BEFORE RECHARGING THE BATTERY, REMOVE THE PLUGS OF EACH CELL. KEEP SPARKSAND NAKED FLAMES AWAY FROM THE BATTERY WHILE RECHARGING.CAUTION

NEVER USE FUSES WITH A CAPACITY HIGHER THAN THE RECOMMENDED CAPACITY. USINGA FUSE OF UNSUITABLE RATING MAY SERIOUSLY DAMAGE THE VEHICLE OR EVEN CAUSEA FIRE.CAUTION

ORDINARY AND DRINKING WATER CONTAINS MINERAL SALTS THAT ARE HARMFUL FORTHE BATTERY. FOR THIS REASON, YOU MUST ONLY USE DISTILLED WATER.CAUTION

CHARGE THE BATTERY BEFORE USE TO ENSURE OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE. INADEQUATECHARGING OF THE BATTERY WITH A LOW LEVEL OF ELECTROLYTE BEFORE IT IS FIRSTUSED SHORTENS THE LIFE OF THE BATTERY.

Fuel supply

The vehicle comes with a membrane pump con-

trolled by the depression that is generated in the

intake manifold. Therefore, the tank has an intake

in the lowest point that sends the fuel to the pump

and from here to the carburettor.

To determine the correct functioning of the pump,

the following measurements can be made on the

amounts distributed:

1) Start up the engine, bring it to normal operating

temperature and then shut it off.

2) Disconnect the fuel adduction line on the car-

burettor and insert it into a graduated tube.

3) Start up the engine without the accelerator and

keep it idle.

4) After the engine is started, count to 10 and then

turn it off.

5) Check that the quantity of fuel is not less than

the prescribed value.

Front brake calliper

Removal

• Check that the brake piping, gasket

and fitting are in good condition. If you

see any oil on the brake calliper and/on

the components of the system, it is

necessary to replace them.

• - Disconnect the oil line from the cal-

liper, collecting the oil in a container.

• - Remove the two clamps highlighted

in the diagram.

Overhaul

Proceed as follows:

1) remove the two male hexagonal screws (1) and

take out the two pads (10);

2) remove the two male hexagonal screws (2) and

remove the reaction plate (3);

3) take out the fixed plate (4) from the guide;

4) remove the internal elements from the floating

body (5) with the help of short blows of com-

pressed air through the brake fluid pipe in order to

facilitate the expulsion of pistons (6).

5) Check:

- that the plates and the body are whole and in

good condition;

- that the cylinder and the floating body of the cal-

liper do not show signs of scratches or erosion,

otherwise replace the entire calliper;

- that the guides of the fixed plate are not scratched

or eroded, otherwise replace the entire plate;

- that the brake pad check spring works properly.

Reassembly

Braking system DNA 50

BRAK SYS - 100

Page 101: Gilera DNA 50 (EN)

1) insert the pistons (6) and the sealing rings (7) in

the body;

2) place the guide rubbers (8) and refit the fixed

plate (4);

3) assemble the reaction plate (3) tightening the

screws (2), insert the brake pad check spring (9)

and then the pads, fixing them with the corre-

sponding screws (1);

5) place the calliper on the disc and lock it to the

strut by tightening the fixing screws;

6) fix the pipe joint on the calliper at the prescribed

torque.

Functioning

This is a floating type calliper.

It takes advantage of the action and reaction prin-

ciple to obtain the thrust for both pads.

The body and the reaction plate body work inte-

grally and can move axially with respect of the

fixed plate that is integral to the strut.

The pistons, forced by pressure to push the pad to

the disk, cause the reaction plate to push in turn

the other pad towards the disc.

• Using the appropriate tool, measure

how much the disc protrudes when the

wheel is fitted properly. The protrusion,

measured near the external edge of

the disc, must be less than 0.1 mm.

• If a value is measured other than the

specified value, remove the front wheel

(Front/Rear Suspension chapter) and

check the protrusion of the disc. Maxi-

mum permissible out of true is 0.1 mm.

If the value measured is greater, re-

place the disc and repeat the check.

• If the problem persists, check and re-

place the wheel hub if necessary.
