          3. INSPECTION/ADJUSTMENT                                                  MXU 300/250

                                                      Compression Gauge
 CYLINDER COMPRESSION
 Warm up the engine before compression
 test.
 Remove the spark plug.
 Insert a compression gauge.
 Open the throttle valve fully and push the
 starter button to test the compression.

 Cylinder compression:
  MXU 250: 15 kg/cm (1500 kPa, 213 psi)
  MXU 300: 16 kg/cm (1600 kPa, 227 psi)

 If the compression is low, check for the
 following:
 - Leaky valves
 - Valve clearance too small
 - Leaking cylinder head gasket
 - Worn piston rings
 - Worn piston/cylinder
 If the compression is high, it indicates that
 carbon deposits have accumulated on the
 combustion chamber and the piston head.

                                                                              Upper Level
 ENGINE OIL
 OIL LEVEL
 Place the machine on a level place.
 Warm up the engine for several minutes and
 stop it.
     Run the engine for 23 minutes and
     check the oil level after the engine is
     stopped for 23 minutes.

                                                 Inspection Window           Lower Level
 Check the oil level through the inspection
 window.
 The oil level should be between the
 maximum (H) and minimum (L) marks. If
 the level is low, add oil to raise it to the
 proper level.
