3-2

CautionExhaust contains toxic gas which may cause oneto lose consciousness and even result in death.

GasolineGasoline is a low ignition point and explosivematerial. Work in a well-ventilated place, no flameor spark should be allowed in the work place orwhere gasoline is being stored.

CautionGasoline is highly flammable, and may explodeunder some conditions, keep it away fromchildren.

Used engine oil

CautionProlonged contact with used engine oil (ortransmission oil) may cause skin cancer althoughit might not be verified.We recommend that you wash your hands withsoap and water right after contacting. Keep theused oil beyond reach of children.

Hot components

CautionComponents of the engine and exhaust systemcan become extremely hot after engine running.They remain very hot even after the engine hasbeen stopped for some time. When performingservice work on these parts, wear insulatedgloves and wait until cooling off.

Battery

CautionBattery emits explosive gases; flame is strictlyprohibited. Keep the place well ventilatedwhen charging the battery.Battery contains sulfuric acid (electrolyte)which can cause serious burns so be carefuldo not be spray on your eyes or skin. If youget battery acid on your skin, flush it offimmediately with water. If you get battery acidin your eyes, flush it off immediately withwater and then go to hospital to see anophthalmologist.If you swallow it by mistake, drink a lot ofwater or milk, and take some laxative such ascastor oil or vegetable oil and then go to see adoctor.Keep electrolyte beyond reach of children.

3. GENERAL INFORMATION

Service Precautions Always use with VMEP genuine parts and

recommended oils. Using non-designed partsfor VMEP motorcycle may damage themotorcycle.

Special tools are designed for remove andinstall of components without damaging theparts being worked on. Using wrong tools mayresult in parts damaged.

When servicing this motorcycle, use only metrictools. Metric bolts, nuts, and screws are notinterchangeable with the English system, usingwrong tools and fasteners may damage thisvehicle.

Clean the outside of the parts or the coverbefore removing it from the motorcycle.Otherwise, dirt and deposit accumulated on thepart's surface may fall into the engine, chassis,or brake system to cause a damage.

Wash and clean parts with high ignition pointsolvent, and blow dry with compressed air. Payspecial attention to O-rings or oil seals becausemost cleaning agents have an adverse effect onthem.

Never bend or twist a control cable to preventunsmooth control and premature worn out.

Rubber parts may become deteriorated whenold, and prone to be damaged by solvent and oil.Check these parts before installation to makesure that they are in good condition, replace ifnecessary.

When loosening a component which hasdifferent sized fasteners, operate with adiagonal pattern and work from inside out.Loosen the small fasteners first. If the biggerones are loosen first, small fasteners mayreceive too much stress.

Store complex components such astransmission parts in the proper assemble orderand tie them together with a wire for ease ofinstallation later.

Note the reassemble position of the importantcomponents before disassembling them toensure they will be reassembled in correctdimensions (depth, distance or position).

Components not to be reused should bereplaced when disassembled including gasketsmetal seal rings, O-rings, oil seals, snap rings,and split pins.

3-3

Page 9: Sym VS 125 - 150 (EN)

3. GENERAL INFORMATION

The length of bolts and screws for assemblies,cover plates or boxes is different from oneanother, be sure they are correctly installed. Incase of confusion, Insert the bolt into the hole tocompare its length with other bolts, if its lengthout side the hole is the same with other bolts, itis a correct bolt. Bolts for the same assemblyshould have the same length.

3-4

Tighten assemblies with different dimensionfasteners as follows: Tighten all the fastenerswith fingers, then tighten the big ones withspecial tool first diagonally from inside towardoutside, important components should betightened 2 to 3 times with appropriateincrements to avoid warp unless otherwiseindicated. Bolts and fasteners should be keptclean and dry. Do not apply oil to the threads.

When oil seal is installed, fill the groove withgrease, install the oil seal with the name of themanufacturer facing outside, check the shaft onwhich the oil seal is to be installed forsmoothness and for burrs that may damage theoil seal.

Remove residues of the old gasket or sealantbefore reinstallation, grind with a grindstone ifthe contact surface has any damage.

The ends of rubber hoses (for fuel, vacuum, orcoolant) should be pushed as far as they can goto their connections so that there is enoughroom below the enlarged ends for tightening theclamps.

Groove

Clamp

Connector

Rubber and plastic boots should be properlyreinstalled to the original correct positions asdesigned.

Boots

The tool should be pressed against two (innerand outer) bearing races when removing a ballbearing. Damage may result if the tool ispressed against only one race (either inner raceor outer race). In this case, the bearing shouldbe replaced. To avoid damaging the bearing,use equal force on both races.

Manufacturer's name

Both of these examples can result inbearing damage.

Maintenance DescriptionOperational precautions

CautionInhaling asbestos may cause disorders of respiration system or cancer, therefore, never use air hose ordry brush to clean brake parts. Use vacuum cleaner or other authorized tool instead.

The brake caliper can be removed without removing the hydraulic system. After the hydraulic system is removed, or the brake system is felt to be too soft, bleed the hydraulic

system. While refilling brake fluid, care should be taken not to let the foreign material entering into the brake

system. Do not spill brake fluid on the painted surfaces, plastic or rubber parts to avoid damage. Check the operation of the brake system before riding.
