Haynes is the foremost publisher of vehicle manuals and more than 150 million have been sold worldwide. These sales figures are testimony to how useful and informative Haynes manuals are. The new Chinese Taiwanese & Korean Scooters manual follows the established Haynes tradition in that it was written and illustrated following the complete strip down and re-assembly of a Baotian BT49 and CPI Aragon.
The aim of a Haynes Workshop Manual is to help you get the best value from your scooter – which it does in several ways. It can help you decide what work must be done (even if you choose to get it done by a garage). It also provides information on routine maintenance and servicing, and gives a logical course of action and diagnosis when random faults occur. However, it is hoped that you will use the manual by tackling the work yourself. On simpler jobs it may even be quicker than booking the scooter into a garage. Perhaps most important, a lot of money can be saved by avoiding the costs a garage must charge to cover its labour and overheads.
The manual has drawings and descriptions to show the function of the various components so that their layout can be understood. Tasks are described and photographed in a clear step-by-step sequence with details of what tools are required and a complexity rating. There are sections on pre-ride checks and routine maintenance and instructions for straightforward tasks such as checking fluid levels and filter changes, plus repair information such as drive belt renewal and engine overhaul.
