Speed ​​up to 90 km/h. When replacing parts, refer to the markings. Write it down before using it.

Numbers and Latin letters are stamped in two places on the engine:

• on the crankcase under the front variator cover, at the bottom;
• near the gearbox on the engine crankcase.

We find spare parts by markings.

There are 2 markings:

• 139QMB;
• 1P39QMB.

They are identical.

• The number 1 denotes 1 cylinder, P - its horizontal position. If there is no “P”, then horizontal placement is not necessary;
• The numbers “32”, “52” indicate the internal diameter of the cylinder and piston;
• “F” - air flow cooling of the motor (1P39FMB);
• “Q”—forced cooling. A blower casing is installed, if there is no letter - water cooling (139FMB, 152QM), (172MM);
• “M” - motor type (139QMA) motorcycle;
• The third letter volume is “A” 50, “B” 70, “J” 150-155.

The Vulcan 150 model has a “J”.

The key to a long service life of a scooter is high-quality running-in

Exploitation

There are 2 periods: run-in and normal.

It is necessary to break in a scooter after purchasing a new one or after repairs have been carried out. The parts and gaskets are grinding in and the motor is in thermal mode. High-quality running-in is the key to long service.

• A smooth, level road with a dense surface is selected; crushed stone is not suitable;
• the speed limit is set to medium, 60-70 km/h;
• you cannot overload the engine, transport heavy loads, ride with a second person, or climb a hill;
• warm up the engine before driving;
• running-in duration is 1000 km;
• Do not switch modes abruptly.

Operating modes.

Up to 150 km:

• do not allow the engine to operate for long periods of time with the throttle handle turned more than 1/3 of a revolution;
• stop every 10 minutes to cool the engine;
• Change speed frequently.

After purchasing new equipment, it should be run in
after 150-500 km:

• you need to wash the filter and change the oil;
• Turn the throttle handle ½ turn for a short time.

500-1000 km;

• briefly turn the handle ¾ turn;

More than 1000 km:

• turn the handle completely.

For all modes, change the speed periodically.

While warming up, monitor the rotation of the crankshaft. Rapid rotation will cause jamming.

Winter operation.

There are few fans of winter driving. When storing the scooter, drain the gasoline. In cold weather, the fuel changes its structure and the carburetor becomes clogged.

Riding a scooter allows you to avoid traffic jams.
Winter trips:

• add new fuel;
• check the tire pressure, reduce it to 1.5 atmospheres;
• charge the battery;
• replace old spare parts;
• check the oil level;
• filter condition;
• clean the air filter;
• lubricate brakes and cables;
• warm up for 5 minutes.

Summer:

• avoid overheating. Prolonged driving at a temperature of 30 degrees leads to overheating of the cylinder. As a result, the belt often breaks and engine problems arise;
• do not pinch the throttle;
• Do not turn off the engine quickly.

Compliance with all rules will ensure long service life for your scooter.

Weight and dimensions

This brand is close to a motorcycle.

Length 1880. Width 700. Height 1170 cm. Takes up little space. Parks everywhere.

Weighs only 112 kg. Maneuverability is good, traffic jams are not a problem.

Brake device

Disc brakes, fractional type. Installed on both wheels.

The disk is a moving part. Caliper with brake pads - fixed.

Complete with:

• caliper (bracket);
• cylinder;
• pads;
• disks.

The caliper is mounted on the steering knuckle. It moves horizontally. Inside there is a brake cylinder and a piston; it presses the pad-plates to the disc. A fitting is installed on the housing; air entering the system is removed through it (the cause of poor braking).

Scooter wheels are made from perforated steel

Brake pads are metal with friction linings. They are placed on the sides of the disk and secured to the wheel hub.

• When you press the brake pedal, the pressure in the fluid-filled tubes increases;
• the fluid presses on the pistons of the working brake cylinders, the pads are pressed against the disc;
• speed decreases;
• release the pedal - the pressure decreases and the disk is released.

Scooter rims are made of perforated steel. The larger it is, the better the brakes.

Wheels

A safe trip depends on inflating your tires. Before leaving, check with a monometer. The norm for inflated wheels is rear 20, front 1.75 atm. When pumped, it has weak adhesion to the road surface. You can fall when turning.

A poorly inflated one fits tightly to the road. The load on the motor increases. Fuel consumption is higher.

In both cases, rubber wears out quickly.

A safe trip depends on inflating your tires.

Suspension

Consists of a spring and a guide.

The guides include: front telescopic fork and rear - pendulum.

The third part is a unit with a hydraulic shock absorber filled with a special liquid that dampens vibrations. Heat from friction escapes into the atmosphere.

1. The front wheel suspension is represented by two pipes. One is fixed, the other is movable. One enters the other like in a telescope. When the wheel hits an uneven surface, the pipes move. The lower movable one enters the upper one and absorbs it using a spring located inside the tube.
2. Rear wheel suspension. Consists of an engine and transmission. Works like a pendulum. A wheel is reinforced at the rear of the structure. At the front it is connected to the frame by an axle. Attached to the pendulum using a sealing block.

Pendants provide a unique feeling of comfort and smooth out the inconvenience of a rigid structure.
