ADJUSTING THE HEAD UNIT

The head unit should come adjusted from the factory. However, riding on rough terrain

and general use may cause the head unit to become loose over time. It may be

necessary to adjust the head unit from time to time.

To adjust the head unit:

1. Rotate the handlebar as far right as it will go to expose the HEAD UNIT.

2. Using a large adjustable wrench, gently loosen the lower lock nut, then tighten the

upper nut, then tighten the lower lock nut to hold the upper nut in place.

* DO NOT over tighten as it will make it difficult to steer and may DAMAGE THE BEARINGS.

CHAIN CARE

Lubrication

Always keep the chains lubricated with a good chain spray or grease (not chain wax). If

the chains are allowed to run dry for a prolonged period they will fail, and chain life will

be shortened.

Chain Adjustment

The chain on the XTR-SE should be adjusted from time to time. The chain should be

tight enough not to skip, but have a little bit of play. If you feel your chain skipping or

make a popping noise, adjust the tension immediately.

For Regular Adjustments

1. Use a 17mm wrench to loosen the axle bolts

on each side of the rear wheel (Fig. 13).

2. While the axle bolts are loose, using a 10mm

wrench loosen the tension bolts behind the

rear wheel of the XTR-SE and move the rear

wheel backwards to remove the slack in the

chain (Fig. 14)

3. Once this is achieved the wheel nuts must then be relocked into position and wheel

alignment must be checked (while turning the wheel, visually check that the

clearance between the wheel and the frame parts have clearance).

*Note: Chains that are run excessively dry or loose can result in sprocket teeth being

severely damaged.
