3 Important notes
3.1 Manufacturer and implied warranty
The work specified in the service schedule may only be performed in an authorized HORWIN
Ranger workshop and must be recorded in both the Service & Warranty Booklet, otherwise any
warranty coverage will become void. Damage or secondary damage caused by tampering with
and/or conversions on the motorcycle is not covered by the warranty. Additional information on the
manufacturer or implied warranty and the procedures involved can be found in the Service &
Warranty Booklet.
3.2 Operating and auxiliary substances
Warning
Environmental hazard Improper handling of lubricating oil is a danger to the
environment.
Do not allow lubricating oil to enter the groundwater, the soil, or the sewage system.

3.4 Service
A prerequisite for perfect operation and prevention of premature wear is that the service, motorcycle,
and tuning work on the engine and chassis is properly serviced out as described in the Owner's
Manual. Incorrect adjustment and tuning of the engine and chassis can lead to damage and breakage
of components.
Use of the motorcycle under difficult conditions, such as on sand or on wet and muddy surfaces,
can lead to considerably more rapid wear of components such as the drive train, braking system, or
suspension components. For this reason, it may be necessary to inspect or replace parts before the

14
next scheduled service.
It is imperative that you adhere to the stipulated run-in times and service intervals. If you observe
these exactly, you will ensure a much longer service life for your motorcycle.
3.5 Figures
The figures contained in the manual may depict special equipment.
In the interest of clarity, some components may be shown disassembled or may not be shown at all.
It is not always necessary to disassemble the component to perform the activity in question. Please
follow the instructions in the text.
3.6 Customer service
Authorized HORWIN dealer will be happy to answer any questions you may have on motorcycle
and HORWIN Ranger.

want softer acceleration. This position is also good for newer
riders and for extending range.

regeneration when the throttle is released. This position is
recommended for advanced riders.
