Characteristics

Keep coupled parts together since they have "adjusted" to each other due to normal wear and tear. Some components must be used together or replaced altogether. Keep away from heat sources.

REASSEMBLING COMPONENTSCAUTION

NEVER REUSE A CIRCLIP; IF A CIRCLIP HAS BEEN REMOVED, IT MUST BE REPLACED WITH A NEW ONE. WHEN INSTALLING A CIRCLIP, ENSURE THAT ITS ENDS ARE NOT STRETCHED MORE THAN IS NECESSARY TO FIT IT ONTO THE SHAFT. AFTER INSTALLING THE CIRCLIP, CHECK THAT IT IS FULLY AND CLEANLY INSTALLED IN ITS SEAT. DO NOT USED COMPRESSED AIR TO CLEAN BEARINGS.NOTE

BEARINGS MUST BE ABLE TO ROTATE FREELY, WITHOUT JAMMING AND/OR NOISE, OTHERWISE THEY NEED REPLACING. Use only ORIGINAL aprilia SPARE PARTS. Comply with lubricant and consumables usage guidelines. Lubricate parts (whenever possible) before refitting them. When tightening nuts and screws, start from the ones with the largest section or from the internal ones, moving diagonally. Tighten nuts and screws in successive steps before applying the tightening torque. Always replace self-locking nuts, washers, sealing rings, circlips, O-rings, split pins and screws with new ones if their tread is damaged. When fitting bearings, make sure to lubricate them well. Check that each component is fitted correctly. After a repair or routine maintenance procedure, carry out pre-ride checks and test the vehicle on private grounds or in an area with low traffic density. Clean all coupling surfaces, oil guard rims and washers before refitting them. Apply a light layer of lithium-based grease on the oil guard rims. Reassemble the oil guards and the bearings with the brand or lot number facing outward (visible side). ELECTRIC CONNECTORS Electric connectors must be disconnected as described below as non-compliance with the procedure so described causes irreparable damage to both the connector and the cable harness: Press the relevant safety hooks, if any.CAUTION

TO DISCONNECT THE TWO CONNECTORS, DO NOT PULL THE CABLES. Grip the two connectors and disconnect them by pulling them in opposite directions.

CHAR - 9

Characteristics

SPORTCITY CUBE 250 - 300

NOTE

In presence of dirt, rust, humidity etc., clean the connector's internal parts carefully, using a pressurised air jet. Make sure that the cables are correctly linked to the connector's internal terminal ends.

THE TWO CONNECTORS CONNECT ONLY FROM ONE SIDE; CONNECT THEM THE RIGHT WAY ROUND. Then fit the two connectors making sure that they couple correctly (if the relevant hooks are provided, you will hear them "click" into place). TIGHTENING TORQUECAUTION

DO NOT FORGET THAT TIGHTENING TORQUES OF ALL FASTENING ELEMENTS ON WHEELS, BRAKES, WHEEL SPINDLES AND OTHER SUSPENSION COMPONENTS PLAY A KEY ROLE IN ENSURING THE VEHICLE'S SAFETY AND MUST COMPLY WITH SPECIFIED VALUES. CHECK THE TIGHTENING TORQUES OF FASTENING PARTS ON A REGULAR BASIS AND ALWAYS USE A TORQUE WRENCH TO REASSEMBLE THESE COMPONENTS. IF THESE RECOMMENDATIONS ARE NOT COMPLIED WITH, ONE OF THE COMPONENTS MAY BECOME LOOSE AND EVEN DETACHED, THUS BLOCKING A WHEEL, OR OTHERWISE COMPROMISING THE VEHICLE'S MANOEUVRABILITY. THIS CAN LEAD TO FALLS, WITH THE RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. BRAKE FLUIDCAUTION

DO NOT USE FLUIDS OTHER THAN THOSE PRESCRIBED AND DO NOT MIX DIFFERENT LIQUIDS WHEN TOPPING UP IN ORDER NOT TO DAMAGE THE BRAKE SYSTEM. DO NOT USE BRAKE FLUID TAKEN FROM OLD CONTAINERS OR FROM CONTAINERS THAT HAVE BEEN OPEN FOR A PROLONGED TIME. SUDDEN CHANGES IN THE PLAY OR ELASTIC RESISTANCE IN THE BRAKE LEVERS ARE DUE TO FAULTS IN THE HYDRAULIC CIRCUIT. MAKE ESPECIALLY SURE THAT BRAKE DISCS AND THE FRICTION MATERIAL ARE NOT SMEARED OR GREASY, PARTICULARLY AFTER CARRYING OUT MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION OPERATIONS. CHECK THAT BRAKE WIRES ARE NOT TWISTED OR WORN. ENSURE THAT WATER OR DUST DO NOT INGRESS INADVERTENTLY INTO THE CIRCUIT. IT IS ADVISABLE TO WEAR LATEX GLOVES WHEN SERVICING THE HYDRAULIC CIRCUIT. DISC BRAKECAUTION

ANY OIL OR OTHER LIQUIDS ON A DISC WILL SOIL THE BRAKE PADS. SOILED PADS MUST BE REMOVED AND REPLACED. A SOILED DISC OR A DISC WITH TRACES OF OIL MUST BE CLEANED WITH A TOP QUALITY DEGREASING AGENT. IF THE SCOOTER IS USED CLOSE TO WATER OR ON DUSTY OR UNSURFACED ROADS, OR IF IT IS USED FOR SPORTS APPLICATION, HALVE THE SERVICE INTERVALS. COOLANT The cooling of the engine is by forced liquid circulation. The coolant liquid is made up of 50% de-ionised water and antifreeze solution in a base of ethylene glycol and corrosion inhibitors. The product recommended in the 'Recommended products table' is already mixed and ready to use.

CHAR - 10

SPORTCITY CUBE 250 - 300

Characteristics

For the best functioning of the engine the temperature of the coolant fluid should register in the central zone of the appropriate gauge. If the needle enters the red zone, stop the engine, allow it to cool, and check the level of the fluid; if it is normal, contact an Official aprilia Dealer.CAUTION

DO NOT USE YOUR VEHICLE IF THE COOLANT LEVEL IS BELOW THE MINIMUM LEVEL MARKED "MIN".CAUTION

COOLANT IS TOXIC IF INGESTED; CONTACT WITH YOUR EYES OR SKIN MAY CAUSE IRRITATION. IF THE FLUID GETS IN CONTACT WITH THE EYES OR SKIN, RINSE REPEATEDLY WITH PLENTY OF WATER AND SEEK MEDICAL ADVICE. IF SWALLOWED, INDUCE VOMITING, RINSE MOUTH AND THROAT WITH PLENTY OF WATER AND SEEK MEDICAL ADVICE IMMEDIATELY.CAUTION

DO NOT REMOVE THE EXPANSION TANK PLUG WHEN THE ENGINE IS HOT, SINCE COOLANT IS UNDER PRESSURE AND VERY HOT. CONTACT WITH SKIN OR CLOTHES MAY CAUSE SEVERE BURNS AND/OR INJURIES. TYRESCAUTION

CHANGING, REPAIR, MAINTENANCE AND BALANCING ARE IMPORTANT OPERATIONS THAT ARE CARRIED OUT BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL USING SUITABLE TOOLS. THE NEW TYRES MAY BE COVERED WITH A THIN LAYER OF PROTECTIVE COATING THAT IS SLIPPERY. DRIVE CAREFULLY FOR THE FIRST FEW KILOMETRES (MILES). NEVER USE RUBBER TREATMENT AGENTS OF ANY KIND ON THE TYRES. IN PARTICULAR ENSURE THAT THE TYRES DO NOT COME INTO CONTACT WITH LIQUID FUEL THAT WOULD CAUSE A RAPID DETERIORATION OF THE RUBBER. A TYRE THAT HAS BEEN IN CONTACT WITH OIL OR PETROL MUST BE REPLACED AND NOT SIMPLY CLEANED. DO NOT FIT TYRES WITH INNER TUBES ON RIMS FOR TUBELESS TYRES AND VICE VERSA.

- In order to obtain proper bushing lubrication, it is necessary to have both an outstanding lubricating pressure and a good oil flow rate. Therefore, the bushings must be correctly positioned so as not to obstruct the oil supply channels. - The main bushings are comprised of 2 half-bearings, one with holes and channels for lubrication while the other is solid. - The solid half-bearing is intended to stand the thrusts caused by combustion, and for this reason, it is arranged opposed to the cylinder. - So as not to obstruct the oil supply channels, the coupling surface of the two half-bearings must be perpendicular to the cylinder axis as shown in the figure. - The oil supplying channel section is also influenced by the depth to which the bushings are driven compared with the crankshaft axial clearance of the limiting surface. - Measure the bushings diameter at the 3 positions indicated in the figure. - Repeat the measurements for the other half of the bushing. See figure. - There are three crankcase versions: with BLUE, YELLOW or GREEN main bushings. - There is only one type of main bushing housing hole in the crankcase. The standard bushing diameter after driving is variable on the basis of a coupling selection. - The bushing seats in the crankcase are classified into 2 categories - Cat 1 and Cat 2 - just like those for the crankshaft - The main bushings are subdivided into 3 categories according to thickness; see table below:

- If no anomalies are found during the above checks, the same valves can be reused. For better sealing results, it is advisable to grind the valve seats. Grind the valves gently with fine-grained lapping compound. Upon grinding, keep the cylinder head in horizontal position. This will prevent the lapping compound residues from penetrating between the valve stem and the guide (see figure).CAUTION

TO AVOID SCORING THE FAYING SURFACE, DO NOT ROTATE THE VALVE WHEN NO LAPPING COMPOUND IS LEFT. CAREFULLY WASH THE CYLINDER HEAD AND THE VALVES WITH A SUITABLE PRODUCT FOR THE TYPE OF LAPPING COMPOUND BEING USED.CAUTION

Sealed batteryCommissioning sealed batteries In case the vehicle fits a sealed battery, the maintenance is limited to the loading state and to an eventual recharge. These operations should be carried out before delivering the vehicle, and on a six-month basis while the vehicle is stored in open circuit. Besides upon pre-delivery, it is therefore necessary to check the battery charge and recharge it, if required, before storing the vehicle and afterwards every 6 months. INSTRUCTIONS FOR BATTERY REFRESH AFTER OPEN CIRCUIT STORAGE 1. Voltage check 2. Before installing the battery on the vehicle, check the open circuit voltage with a standard tester. If voltage is over 12.60V, the battery can be installed without any refresh. If voltage is below 12.60 V, a renewal recharge is required as explained in 2).

3. Constant-voltage battery charge mode 4. Constant-voltage charge equal to 14.4014.70V Initial charge current equal to 0.30.5 of the battery rated capacity Charge time: 10 to 12 h recommended Minimum 6 h Maximum 24 h

Dry-charge batteryWARNING

BATTERY ELECTROLYTE IS POISONOUS AS IT MAY CAUSE SERIOUS BURNS. IT CONTAINS SULPHURIC ACID. AVOID CONTACT WITH YOUR EYES, SKIN AND CLOTHING. IF IT ACCIDENTALLY COMES INTO CONTACT WITH YOUR EYES OR SKIN, WASH WITH ABUNDANT WATER FOR APPROX. 15 MIN. AND SEEK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION.

ELE SYS - 90

SPORTCITY CUBE 250 - 300

Electrical system

IF ACCIDENTALLY SWALLOWED, IMMEDIATELY DRINK LARGE QUANTITIES OF WATER OR MILK FOLLOWED BY MAGNESIUM MILK, BEATEN EGG OR VEGETABLE OIL. SEEK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION. BATTERIES PRODUCE EXPLOSIVE GASES; KEEP CLEAR OF NAKED FLAMES, SPARKS OR CIGARETTES; VENTILATE THE AREA WHEN RECHARGING INDOORS. ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION WHEN WORKING IN THE PROXIMITY OF BATTERIES. KEEP OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN Remove the short closed tube and the caps, then pour sulphuric acid into the cells, using the type specified for batteries, with a specific gravity of 1.26, corresponding to 30 B, at a minimum temperature of 15C until the upper level is reached. Leave to rest for at least 2 hours, then restore the level with sulphuric acid. Within the following 24 hours, recharge with the specific battery charger at an intensity of about 1/10 of the battery nominal capacity and until the acid density is about 1.27, corresponding to 31 B, and these values are stabilised. Once the charge is complete, level the acid (by adding distilled water). Close and clean carefully. Once the above operations have been performed, install the battery on the vehicle ensuring that it is connected properly. 1 Hold the tube upright 2 Inspect visually 3 The float must be freed Electrolyte level check 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 electrical system: the battery works overcharged and is subject to quick wear. Charge status check After topping-up the electrolyte level, check its density using an appropriate densitometer.

ELE SYS - 91

Electrical system

SPORTCITY CUBE 250 - 300

With the battery charged, a density of 3032 B, corresponding to a specific weight of 1.261.28, must be at a minimum temperature of 15 C. A density reading below 20 B indicates that the battery is completely flat and must therefore be recharged. If the vehicle is not be used for a certain time (1 month or more), the battery needs to be recharged periodically. The battery runs down completely in about three months. Should the battery be fitted on a vehicle, be careful not to invert the connections, keeping in mind that the (black) ground wire marked (-) is connected to the - negative terminal while the other two red wires marked (+) are connected to the + positive terminal. Battery rechargeWARNING

BEFORE RECHARGING THE BATTERY, REMOVE THE CAPS OF EACH CELL. KEEP NAKED FLAMES OR SPARKS AWAY FROM THE BATTERY WHILE CHARGING. First detach the negative terminal before removing the battery from the vehicle. Normal bench charging must be performed using the special battery charger, setting the battery charge selector to the type of battery that requires recharging (that is, at a current equal to 1/10 of the battery rated capacity). Connections to the power supply source must be implemented by connecting corresponding poles (+ to + and - to -). The battery should always be kept clean, especially its top side, and the terminals should be coated with petroleum jelly.CAUTION

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

ORDINARY DRINKING WATER CONTAINS MINERAL SALTS THAT ARE HARMFUL TO THE BATTERY. CONSEQUENTLY, ONLY USE DISTILLED WATER.CAUTION

TO ENSURE MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE, THE BATTERY MUST BE CHARGED BEFORE USE. INADEQUATE CHARGING OF THE BATTERY BEFORE BEING PUT INTO OPERATION SHORTENS BATTERY LIFE.
