User manual DERBI SENDA R DRD RACING

[. . . ] Sociedad Unipersonal offers you our thanks for the confidence you place in us in your purchase of your new model SENDA R/SM RACING In this handbook we outline the most important items in the care of your moped to achieve the best possible service for the longest time and at the least possible cost. The way you ride determines your fuel consumption and therefore how much your moped pollutes the atmosphere. In the same way, the way you treat your moped affects its noise level and wear and tear on the vehicle. In the Owner's instruction handbook you will find a series of points of information on how to ride in an ecologically sound manner, which will also be the most economic way to ride your moped.

Note: For greater safety it is advised to use the indicated mixture in the tank, and only afterwards to fill up with Unleaded Fuel. NOTE: If the foam is obstructed with dust, this will increase the resistance to the intake of air, resulting in a loss of power and an increase in fuel consumption.

Then squeeze out the oil by pressing the foam between the palms of your hands several times. - When the foam is clean, replace it in the filter case by following the above procedure in the reverse order. - Before and during the cleaning operation, examine the air filter foam carefully: if you see that it is defective, replace it with a new one. - If you ride regularly on dusty roads, you should clean the air filter foam more frequently. Always make sure that the foam is in excellent condition: the life of the engine depends greatly on this component.

Washing vehicles should be carried out in areas specifically equipped for recovering or eliminating the detergents used when washing the vehicle. [. . . ]
