INTRODUCTION

• This Workshop Manual describes the main electrical/mechanical checks, the essential checks and the assembly of

components supplied disassembled in order to deliver a brand new vehicle (the sequence of operations is not

binding).

• It is essential to follow the instructions with great care. Work carried out carelessly or, worse still, work that has not

been accomplished, can cause injuries and damage or, in the less serious cases, complaints.

NOTE These manuals provide the necessary information and instructions for routine maintenance and serv-

icing.

Some information has been given to us by the engine manufacturers. We therefore decline all respon-

sibility for any error, omission or misrepresentation.

MALAGUTI reserves the right to make any changes and modifications hereto it deems necessary

without prior notice.

MANUAL UPDATES

• The updates will be sent by us (in a reasonable time). Every CD-Rom you receive will supersede the one already in

your possession.

• The table of contents will be duly updated in the event that new pages are inserted, which render the consultation

of the manual difficult.

• IMPORTANT! The Workshop Manuals are to be considered as essential tools to be properly kept up-to-date so as

to maintain their validity over time.

SYMBOLS

• Symbols are provided for quick and easy reference (see the relevant heading), identifying situations requiring

utmost attention or providing practical suggestions or simple information.

• These symbols may appear next to a text (in which case they refer solely to the text itself), next to a figure (in

which case they refer to the topic illustrated in the figure and to the relative text), or at the top of the page (in which

case they refer to all the topics dealt with in the page).

NOTE The meaning of the symbols should be duly memorised as their scope is to avoid having to repeat

basic technical concepts or safety recommendations. They are therefore to be considered as “memory

tags”. In case of any doubt as to their meaning, consult the page in which they are fully described.

ABBREVIATIONS

UNITS OF MEASUREMENT

All the dimensions in this Manual are shown in

mm.

NOTE The letter V in the illustrations refers to fixing or adjusting screws. The number following this letter

refers to the number of the same type of screw in the unit or component described and illustrated. A

letter without a number indicates quantity 1. In case of different screws being referred to in the illustra-

tion, the letter V is followed by a number and a lower case letter. Example: (V4a).

GENERAL WORK PROCEDURES

• The advice, recommendations and warnings given hereafter are aimed at ensuring maximum work safety as well

as at considerably reducing the risk of accidents, personal injury, equipment damage and idle times. We therefore

recommend observing such advice, recommendations and warnings scrupulously.

SUGGESTIONS

• Only use top quality tools and equipment.

• Only use equipment conforming to EU Directives for lifting the vehicle.

• During all operations keep tools close at hand, ideally in accordance with a predetermined sequence of use, and

anyway never leave tools on the vehicle or in concealed or hard to reach positions.

• Always keep the work area clean and tidy.

• When tightening screws or nuts, start with the larger diameter or inner fasteners, and tighten them in a “crosswise

pattern” in successive “torquing steps”.

• Preferably use open-end wrenches and tighten by exerting “pulling force” rather than “pushing force”.

• Adjustable wrenches should only be used in case of

emergency, i.e. when a properly sized wrench is not

available. During the torquing stage the movable jaw

tends to open thus risking damaging the screw head or

achieving unreliable tightening torque values. In any

case, when using an adjustable wrench, take care to

proceed as shown in the figure.

• Except in the case of occasional services, prepare a

work sheet for the customer, on which to take a note of

all the work performed and write memos relating to any

future checks that may be required.

RECOMMENDATIONS

• Before carrying out any work on the vehicle wait for all

the parts to cool down completely.

• For operations requiring two mechanics, make sure that

the various steps to be performed by each of them are

clearly defined and coordinated beforehand.

• Make sure that each component has been properly fit-

ted before proceeding with the next one.

• Lubricate all parts (where applicable) before reinstall-

ing them.

• Gaskets, oil seals, snap rings and cotters must be re-

newed at every refitting.

• The torque settings specified in the manuals refer to

the “final torque”, which must be reached progressive-

ly by steps.

• Loosen and tighten aluminium alloy parts (covers) only

after the engine has cooled down fully.

• Only use screwdrivers of suitable sizes in relation to

the screws to be loosened or tightened.

• Work in a comfortable position and ensure that the ve-

hicle is stable.

• Never use a screwdriver as a lever or chisel.

• Never use pliers to loosen or tighten screws or nuts because, in addition to not providing a sufficient clamping force,

they may also damage the screw head or nut hex.

• Never tap wrenches with a hammer (or other similar tools) to loosen or tighten screws and nuts.

• Never attempt to increase leverage by attaching tubes, etc. to wrenches.

TYRES

Type: Tubeless

NOTE It is possible to use tyres with load and speed

indexes that are higher than or identical to

those indicated. It is however necessary for

speed indexes to be identical for both tyres.

USE ONLY TYRES WITH THE RELEVANT

TYPE APPROVAL

Check the condition of your tyres (before each trip): if they are damaged (cracks) or cut, have them replaced as soon

as possible.

There are T.W.I. marks all around the tyre sidewalls. These correspond to tyre wear indicators situated in the tyre’s

tread; if there is no difference between the thickness of the tyre wear indicators and the tread depth, the tyre must be

changed.

NOTE Minimum tread depth (front and rear) is 2 mm.

INFLATION PRESSURE

Tyre inflation pressure must be adjusted while the tyre is at ambient temperature.

NOTE Inflation pressure differing from the specified values can lead to higher fuel consumption, irregular

tyre wear, impaired vehicle performance and riding conditions.

FUEL TANK

To access the fuel tank, proceed as follows:

• Place the scooter on the centre stand.

• Open the seat by turning the ignition key counter-clock-

wise.

• Unscrew cap (A) and refuel.

• After refuelling remove any traces of fuel from the scoot-

er body immediately since fuel may damage surface

finishes.

• The quantity of fuel and the use of the reserve fuel ca-

pacity are displayed by the relative function of the on-

board computer and the amber warning light on the right-

hand side of the instrument panel.

• Use UNLEADED PETROL.

* Guideline value

Petrol is extremely inflammable; avoid approaching the fuel filler - also when refuelling - with lit

cigarettes or naked flames (e.g. matches). Fire hazard!

COOLANT TANK

To access the engine coolant tank lift up the rubber mat on

the right-hand side.

Owing to the position of the tank, the level of coolant with

respect to the “MIN” and “MAX” level marks, can be checked

through the frame number inspection window (A) (see rel-

ative heading).

Use the coolant type prescribed in this man-

ual or a coolant with identical characteristics

when topping up the coolant tank.

To avoid burns never remove coolant tank

cap (B) when the engine is hot.

Do not top up with water except in emergen-

cy situations, in which case drain the tank

completely and fill with the prescribed cool-

ant as soon as possible.

REAR-VIEW MIRRORS

The left and right rear-view mirrors must be fitted to the

specific locations on the handlebars and firmly secured in

place.

Adjust the visual angle of the mirrors while sitting on the

scooter in its riding conditions. Orient the mirror until you

obtain the best visibility (A).

Take care: objects behind you are actually closer than they

appear when seen in the rear-view mirrors.

Do not adjust the rear-view mirrors while riding. Always

wait until you are stopped (e.g. at a traffic light).

HELMET COMPARTMENT

• The helmet compartment is under the pillion seat. To

gain access to the compartment, put the scooter on its

stand and turn the ignition key counter-clockwise to

release the seat lock.

• The helmet compartment can accommodate a Jet type

helmet, positioned as shown in the figure.

Some types of helmet may not fit into the compartment.

Before choosing a helmet, make sure it fits into the

compartment.

• There is a 12V socket in the glove compartment that

can be used, for example, to recharge a mobile phone.

The socket must only be used with the engine running

and preferably with the lights off; note that using the

socket reduces battery recharging and can reduce the

battery charge level in certain circumstances.

Do not use the socket for appliances with an excessive

power draw (max. power draw: 30W).

The socket can also be used to recharge the battery by

connecting it to a battery charger for sealed batteries

when the engine is switched off.

Remember to refit the socket cap after using the socket

to prevent the ingress of foreign objects that could cause

short-circuits or other undesirable consequences.

The helmet compartment can be used to carry lightweight objects, which must be stowed in such a

way as to avoid negative effects on stability of the scooter while riding.

Do not insert items that are sensitive to high temperatures (lighters, inflammable liquids, perishable

goods, etc.).

Do not leave documents or valuables inside the helmet compartment.

GLOVE COMPARTMENT

The glove compartment is located in the central part of

the lower fairing (A) and is suitable for accommodating

small personal belongings.

It is fitted with a lock that can be opened with the ignition

key: turn the key clockwise.

The glove compartment contains the electrical system

fuses (B) and relative spare fuses (C) are contained in a

pocket in the door (see the relative section in the manual).

Do not place heavy objects or temperature

sensitive items (lighters, matches, inflamma-

ble liquids, perishable goods, etc.) in the

compartments. Do not leave documents or

valuables in the compartments.

INSTRUMENT PANEL

1) Multifunction digital instrument panel

To set up the various functions refer to the

relative heading in the manual.

2) Analogue instruments. / Speedometer

Indicates the current speed in km/h and mph.

3) Coolant temperature indicator

The warning light comes on to indicate that

the coolant temperature is too high.

4) Red engine stop light

This light illuminates to indicate that the

“Engine Stop” button is set to OFF.

5) Green low beam indicator light

6) Blue high beam indicator light

7) Green left-hand turn indicator light

8) Green right-hand turn indicator light

9) Fuel level indicator

The warning light illuminates to indicate that

the reserve fuel level has been reached.

10) These lights are not used

The engine is not equipped with an oil tem-

perature probe so the oil warning light

is not connected. Always observe the sched-

uled service intervals (see MAINTENANCE

TABLE) and the instrument panel indications

when the keyswitch is set to ON.

Do not clean the instruments with high pres-

sure washers (risk of damage).
