3. Operating Instructions

Starting the Engine:

1. Ensure the fuel valve is open.
2. Turn the ignition key to the 'ON' position.
3. If the engine is cold, engage the choke lever (typically located near the carburetor).
4. Place your foot firmly on the kickstart lever and push down with a swift, strong motion.
5. Once the engine starts, gradually disengage the choke as the engine warms up.

Gear Shifting:

The X-PRO X9 features a 4-speed manual transmission. The shift pattern is typically N-1-2-3-4 (Neutral, then 1st gear down, 2nd, 3rd, 4th up). Practice shifting in a safe, open area before riding.

Braking:

The dirt bike is equipped with disc brakes. The front brake is operated by the lever on the right handlebar, and the rear brake is operated by the foot pedal on the right side. Apply both brakes smoothly and progressively for effective stopping.

Throttle Control:

The throttle is located on the right handlebar. Twist the grip towards you to increase engine speed and release to decrease. Always maintain smooth and controlled throttle inputs.

4. Maintenance

Regular maintenance is essential for the longevity and safe operation of your X-PRO X9 125cc Dirt Bike.

Oil Changes:

• Use 10W-40 motorcycle oil (JASO MA specification).
• Perform the first oil change after approximately 1 hour of initial use.
• Subsequent oil changes should be done every 5 tanks of fuel or as recommended in the engine manual.
• Ensure the engine is warm before draining oil for a more complete drain.

Air Filter:

• Regularly inspect and clean the air filter.
• Clean with appropriate air filter cleaner and re-oil if necessary.

Chain Maintenance:

• Keep the drive chain clean and lubricated.
• Check chain tension regularly and adjust as needed to maintain proper slack.

Tire Pressure:

• Maintain tire pressure at approximately 20 PSI for optimal performance and safety.
• Check tire pressure before each ride.

General Checks:

• Inspect all nuts and bolts for tightness before each ride.
• Check brake fluid levels and brake pad wear.
• Ensure all cables (throttle, clutch, brakes) are free from kinks and operate smoothly.

5. Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your dirt bike.

Engine Not Starting:

• Fuel: Ensure there is fresh fuel in the tank and the fuel valve is open. Use premium gasoline (91 octane or higher) without ethanol.
• Choke: Verify the choke is engaged when starting a cold engine. Gradually disengage it as the engine warms.
• Spark Plug: Check the spark plug for fouling or damage. Clean or replace if necessary.
• Kill Switch: Ensure the engine kill switch is in the 'RUN' position.

Poor Engine Performance:

• Air Filter: A dirty air filter can restrict airflow. Clean or replace it.
• Carburetor: Carburetor issues can lead to poor performance. If you suspect a carburetor problem, professional inspection may be required.
• Throttle Limit: Check if the throttle is limited (e.g., by a screw adjustment). Adjust to full range if desired.

Brake Issues:

• Brake Fluid: Check brake fluid levels. Low fluid can cause spongy brakes.
• Brake Pads: Inspect brake pads for wear. Replace if worn beyond limits.

Shift Lever Issues:

• If the shift lever is bent or damaged, it may need to be straightened or replaced.
