This workshop manual has been drawn up by Piaggio & C. Spa to be used by the workshops of Piaggio-
Gilera dealers. This manual is addressed to Piaggio service mechanics who are supposed to have a
basic knowledge of mechanics principles and of vehicle fixing techniques and procedures. Any important
changes made to the vehicles or to specific fixing operations will be promptly reported by updates to this
manual. Nevertheless, no fixing work can be satisfactory if the necessary equipment and tools are
unavailable. It is therefore advisable to read the sections of this manual relating to specific tools, along
with the specific tool catalogue.
N.B. Provides key information to make the procedure easier to understand and carry out.
CAUTION Refers to specific procedures to carry out for preventing damages to the vehicle.
WARNING Refers to specific procedures to carry out to prevent injuries to the repairer.
Personal safety Failure to completely observe these instructions will result in serious risk of personal
injury.
Safeguarding the environment Sections marked with this symbol indicate the correct use of the vehicle
to prevent damaging the environment.
Vehicle intactness The incomplete or non-observance of these regulations leads to the risk of serious
damage to the vehicle and sometimes even the invalidity of the guarantee.

This section describes the general specifications of the vehicle.
Rules
This section describes general safety rules for any maintenance operations performed on the vehicle.
Safety rules
- If work can only be done on the vehicle with the engine running, make sure that the premises are well-
ventilated, using special extractors if necessary; never let the engine run in an enclosed area. Exhaust
fumes are toxic.
- The battery electrolyte contains sulphuric acid. Protect your eyes, clothes and skin. Sulphuric acid is
highly corrosive; in the event of contact with your eyes or skin, rinse thoroughly with abundant water
and seek immediate medical attention.
- The battery produces hydrogen, a gas that can be highly explosive. Do not smoke and avoid sparks
or flames near the battery, especially when charging it.
- Fuel is highly flammable and it can be explosive given some conditions. Do not smoke in the working
area, and avoid open flames or sparks.
- Clean the brake pads in a well-ventilated area, directing the jet of compressed air in such a way that
you do not breathe in the dust produced by the wear of the friction material. Even though the latter
contains no asbestos, inhaling dust is harmful.
Maintenance rules
- Use original PIAGGIO spare parts and lubricants recommended by the Manufacturer. Non-original or
non-conforming spares may damage the vehicle.
- Use only the appropriate tools designed for this vehicle.
- Always use new gaskets, sealing rings and split pins upon refitting.
- After removal, clean the components using non-flammable or low flash-point solvents. Lubricate all
the work surfaces, except tapered couplings, before refitting these parts.
- After refitting, make sure that all the components have been installed correctly and work properly.
- For removal, overhaul and refit operations use only tools with metric measures. Metric bolts, nuts and
screws are not interchangeable with coupling members with English measurement. Using unsuitable
coupling members and tools may damage the vehicle.
- When carrying out maintenance operations on the vehicle that involve the electrical system, make
sure the electric connections have been made properly, particularly the ground and battery connections.

Carburettor
- Disassemble the carburettor in its parts, wash all of them with solvent, dry all body grooves with
compressed air to ensure adequate cleaning.
- Check carefully that the parts are in good condition.
- The throttle valve should move freely in the chamber. Replace it in case of excessive clearance due
to wear.
- If there are wear marks in the chamber causing inadequate tightness or a free valve slide (even if it
is new), replace the carburettor.
- It is advisable to replace the gaskets at every refit

Checking the spark advance
- To check ignition advance, use the stroboscopic
light with induction pincers connected to the spark
plug power wire.
- Connect the induction pincers being careful to
respect the proper polarity (the arrow stamped on
the pincers must be pointing at the spark plug).
- Place the light selector in central position (1 spark
= 1 crankshaft revolution as in 2 T engines).
- Start the engine and check that the light works
properly and the rpm indicator can read also the
high rpm (e.g. 8000 rpm).
- If flash unsteadiness or revolution reading error
is detected (e.g. half values), increase the resistive

series to AT cable).
- Remove the plastic cover from the slot on the fly-
wheel cover.
- Operating on the flash corrector displacement of
the bulb, make the reference on the flywheel cover
coincide with level on the water pump drive. Read
the advance degrees indicated by the stroboscop-
ic light.
- Check that the advance degrees corresponds
with the rotation rpm as indicated in the table.
- If there are anomalies, check the Pick-Up and the
control unit power supply (positive-negative), re-
place the control unit if necessary.
- The brand new control unit prevents that the en-
gine rotation exceeds 2000 rpm.
- The programmed control unit allows the engine
to rotate within the prescribed limits.

Replacement
The oil and cartridge filter «C» should be replaced
every 6,000 km (125 cc) or 12,000 Km (250 cc) at
an Authorized Piaggio Service Centre. The en-
gine should be emptied by draining the oil from the
filter drainage tap «B» on the flywheel side. In or-
der to facilitate the oil drainage, loosen the cap/
bar. Since a certain quantity of oil remains in the
circuit still, the fill-up should be carried out with
around 600 ÷ 650 cc of oil from cap «A». Then start
up the vehicle, leave it running for a few minutes
and switch it off: after around 5 minutes, check the
level and top up if necessary without ever ex-
ceeding the MAX level. The cartridge filter should
be replaced every time the oil is changed. For top
ups and replacements use new oil of the recom-
mended type.

Check
Every time the vehicle is used, visually inspect the level of the engine oil when the engine is cold (after
completely unscrewing the oil cap/dipstick). The oil level should be somewhere between the MAX
and MIN index marks on the level rod; «A»; during the oil check, the vehicle must be resting on its centre
stand on an even, horizontal surface.
If the check is carried out after the vehicle has been used, and therefore with a hot engine, the level
line will be lower; in order to carry out a correct check, wait at least 10 minutes after the engine has
been stopped so as to get the correct level.

This operation must be carried out with the en-
gine cold and following the procedure below:
1) Rest the scooter on the central stand and on a
flat ground.
2) Set the strut that regulates the position to its
minimum height.
3 ) Screw off cap/dipstick «A», dry it off with a clean
cloth and reinsert it, screwing down complete-
ly.
4) Remove the cap/dipstick «A» again and check
that the level is between the MAX and MIN marks;
top up, if required.
The MAX level as shown in the figure indicates that
there is about 1700 cc of oil in the engine. If the
check is carried out after the vehicle has been
used, and therefore with a hot engine, the level line
will be lower; in order to carry out a correct check
it is necessary to wait at least 10 minutes after the
engine has been stopped, so as to get the correct
level.
Checking the ignition timing
-Remove the 4 fixing screws and move away from
the engine the flywheel cover fitted with a water
pump and cooling manifolds.
-Rotate the flywheel until the reference matches
the crankcase operation end as shown in the figure
(TDC). Make sure that the 4V reference point on
the camshaft control pulley is aligned with the ref-
erence point on the head as shown in the second
figure. If the reference mark is opposite the indi-
cator on the head, make the crankshaft turn once
more.
-The TDC reference mark is repeated also be-
tween the flywheel cooling fan and the flywheel
cover.

Checking the valve clearance
-To check valve clearance, centre the reference
marks of the timing system
- Use a thickness gauge to check that the clear-
ance between the valve and the register corre-
sponds with the indicated values. When the valve
clearance values, intake and drainage respective-
ly, are different from the ones indicated below,
adjust them by loosening the lock nut and operate
on the register with a screwdriver as shown in the

Checks and inspections
This section is devoted to the checks on the electrical system components.
Immobiliser
The electric ignition system is fed with direct cur-
rent and is protected by an antitheft immobilizer
integrated to the control unit.
The ignition system consists of:
- electronic control unit
- immobilizer aerial
- master and service keys with built-in transponder
- HV coil
- diagnosis LED
-The diagnostic LED also works as a deterring
blinker. This function is activated every time the
key switch is turned to "OFF" and it remains active
48 hours so as not to damage the battery charging
process.
When the key switch is turned to "ON", this blinking
function is deactivated. A flash then confirms the
system has switched to "ON".
Electrical system
X8 125-200
ELE SYS - 70
The duration of the flash depends on the electronic
control unit program (see figure).
If the led turns off and remains so when switching
to "ON", it is necessary to check if there is battery
voltage in the electric control unit.
Connect the immobilizer tester to the diagnosis
socket (see ET4 125 manual) located below the
spark plug inspection port.
If the serial LED remains off, proceed to check the
control unit supply as follows:
- Disconnect the control unit connector and check
if:
- There is battery voltage between terminal No. 4
(Red/Black) and the ground lead.
- There is battery voltage between the terminal No.
4 (Red/Black) and terminal No. 8 (Negative) as
shown in the figure.
If no voltage is detected, check the wiring to the
battery positive lead and see if the 15A fuse is in
good conditions (see the start-up diagram)
- There is battery voltage between terminals No. 5
and No. 8 with the key switch set to "ON", the side
stand retracted and the emergency switch set to
"RUN".
If no faults are found, replace the control unit; oth-
erwise check the wiring and the following compo-
nents:
- Engine stop remote control;
- Emergency cut-off switch;
- Side stand contacts;
- Key switch contacts.
X8 125-200
Electrical system
ELE SYS - 71
If the ignition system has not been programmed,
the engine can be started but it will run limited to
2000 rpm. When trying to accelerate, some evi-
dent loss of power may be felt.
Program the system with the MASTER (Brown)
and SERVICE (Black) keys as follows:
- Insert the MASTER key, turn it to "ON" and keep
it in that position for 2 seconds (limit values: 1 ÷ 3
seconds).
- Alternately insert all the available black keys and
turn each one of them to "ON" for 2 seconds.
- Insert the MASTER key again and turn it to "ON"
for 2 seconds.
The maximum time to change keys is 10 seconds.
A maximum of 7 (Black) service keys can be pro-
grammed at one time.
Sequence and times must be strictly observed or
it will be necessary to repeat the procedure from
the start.
Once the control unit has been programmed, the
control unit is inseparably matched with the MAS-
TER key transponder.
This matching allows programming further service
keys in case of loss, replacement, etc. Each new
time new data is programmed the previously stor-
ed one is deleted.
If a service key setting is lost, it is essential to
carefully check the efficiency of the high voltage
system:
Shielded cap resistance ~ 5000 Ω.
In any case it is advisable to use resistive spark
plugs.
Diagnostic codes
The flash indicating the switching to "ON" can be followed by a phase of programmed failure warnings.
That is, the led is off for 2 seconds, and then diagnosis codes are transmitted with 0.5-second flashes.
After the failure code indication, a steadily on LED signals that ignition is disabled; see the table:
Electrical system
X8 125-200
ELE SYS - 72
2-FLASH CODE - Example with programmed control unit, no transponder and/or malfunctioning aerial.
Ignition disabled-Vehicle immobilised
3-FLASH CODE - Example with programmed control unit, aerial working properly and unknown trans-
ponder code. Ignition disabled-Vehicle immobilised
Diagnostic code - 2 flashes
Diagnosis code: 2-flashes
When the 2-flash code is detected, carry out the following checks:
- Check if the failure continues after changing key (MASTER key included). If the failure persists with
any key, disconnect the aerial connector from the control unit and check the aerial continuity with the
020331Y multimeter.
If non-conforming values are measured, replace the aerial.
If no failures are found in the aerial, replace the control unit.
CAUTION
BEFORE PROGRAMMING THE NEW ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT CHECK THAT NO FAILURE
CODE IS INDICATED. THIS IS NECESSARY TO AVOID SPOILING A NEW CONTROL UNIT
Electric characteristic
immobilizer aerial
~ 7 ÷ 9 Ohm
X8 125-200
Electrical system
ELE SYS - 73
Diagnostic code - 3 flashes
If the 3-flash code is detected, check if the failure
occurs when the MASTER key in inserted into the
key switch.
- If the failure disappears when the MASTER key
is used, proceed to encode the service keys
(Black).
- If the failure persists, it means that the MASTER
key and the control unit are not linked; in this case,
replace the control unit and then encode the keys.
The immobilizer system is efficient when, after
switching over to "ON", only a 0.7-second flash is
detected (see diagram).
In this case, the engine can be started.
Example with programmed control unit, trans-
ponder, programmed key and aerial working prop-
erly.
Ignition is enabled (regular conditions of use)
Ignition circuit
Once the immobilizer system is enabled, the HV coil and the signals from the Pick-Up will produce a
spark in the spark plug.
The battery provides the basic power supply. The system is adjusted so that the start-up system im-
mediately detects an eventual battery voltage drop, but this is practically irrelevant for the ignition
system.
The Pick-Up is connected to the control unit by a single cable; then, for the ground circuit, the control
unit is connected to the Pick-Up by the chassis and the engine ground lead.
To avoid disturbances in the ignition system during start-up, it is very important that the engine-chassis
ground connection bonding is efficient.

No spark plug
Once the lack of power to the spark plug has been
detected and the LED indicates it can be ignited,
follow this procedure:
- Pick-Up check.
Disconnect the control unit connector and check
that the cable between terminal No. 2 (Green) and
terminal No. 8 (Black) is not interrupted. Check the
Pick-Up and its power line:
Electric characteristic
Pick-up resistance value
Pick-up resistance value: 105 ÷ 124 Ohm
If a break in the circuit is found, check again the flywheel and the engine ground connectors (see engine
manual). If non-conforming values are detected, replace the Pick-Up, otherwise check the cable har-
ness and the connections. In case conforming values are measured and the wiring and connections
check is OK, try replacing the control unit (without programming) and make sure the failure has been
solved by checking sparks are produced in the spark plug; only then program the control unit. If no
sparks are produced with the new control unit, proceed as follows.
- HV primary coil check
Disconnect the two connectors on the HV coil and
check continuity (see figure). If non-conforming
values are measured, replace the HV coil. If con-
forming values are measured, check the cable
harness taking into account that the HV coil posi-
tive wire has a branch that comes into the digital
instrument panel (violet cable). Therefore, make
sure this line is in perfect conditions. If failures are
detected, check the HV coil secondary.
Electric characteristic
High voltage coil primary resistance value
High voltage coil primary resistance value: 0.4 ÷
0.5 Ohm
HV coil secondary check
Disconnect the spark plug cap from the HV cable and measure the resistance between the HV cable
terminal and the HV coil negative terminal (see figure). If non-conforming values are measured, replace
the HV coil. To carry out a more complete diagnosis, check the peak voltage with the multimeter adaptor.

- Disconnect the control unit connector and con-
nect the positive terminal to connector No. 2 and
the negative terminal to connector No. 8 (see fig-
ure).
Use the start-up system to run the engine and
measure the voltage produced by the Pick-Up.
Replace Pick-Up if non-conforming values are
measured.

Also check that all yellow cables are insulated from
the ground connection.
If non-conforming values are detected, repeat the
checks directly to the stator. In case of further rep-
etitions of incorrect values replace the stator or
repair the wiring.
- With a tester, check the circuit between connec-
tions 5-3 and 5-1 is not interrupted.
- Check the earth isolation on the three phases of
stators 5-earth, 3-earth, 1-earth.
Stage indicative resistance: 0.7 - 0.9 Ω
Minimum oil pressure switch check
- With a tester, check the circuit between connec-
tions 4 and ground (with engine off) is not inter-
rupted.
Pick-Up check
- Check that there is a resistance of about 105 ÷
124 Ω at 20° C between connection 2 and ground.
- In case of values different from the ones stated,
replace the defective parts.

Voltage regulator check
With a perfectly charged battery and lights off,
measure voltage at the battery poles with a high
running engine.
The voltage should not exceed 15.2 Volt.
In case higher voltages are detected, replace the
regulator.
In case of voltage values lower than 14 Volt, check
the stator and the corresponding cable harness.
Recharge system voltage check
Connect an ammeter induction clamp to the volt-
age regulator positive terminal, measure the bat-
tery voltage and turning on the vehicles lights with
engine off, wait for the voltage to set at about 12
V. Start the engine and measure the current gen-
erated by the system with lights on and a high
running engine.
In case the generated current value is lower than
10A, repeat the test using a new regulator and/
stator alternatively.
Choke Inspection
Refer to the engine section to check the resistance
and operating conditions of the component. As re-
gards voltage supply, keep the connector connec-
ted to the system and check that the two terminals
receive battery voltage when the engine is on (see
figure).
If voltage is detected, replace the automatic starter
as it is surely failing.
Electrical system
X8 125-200
ELE SYS - 78
If no voltage is detected, connect the multimeter
negative terminal to the earth terminal and the
positive terminal to the automatic starter orange
cable; with the key switch set to «ON» check
whether there is battery voltage; if there is no volt-
age, check the wiring connections to the key
switch and that the 15A fuse works properly.
If there is voltage, check again the ignition control
unit connector. After disconnecting the starter,
start the engine and keep it at idle speed. Check if
there is voltage when the multimeter positive
probe is connected to the terminal No. 5 (Sky blue)
and the negative one to the terminal No. 7 (Black/
White) (see figure).
Replace the control unit if there is no voltage; oth-
erwise, check the wiring connections between the
starter and the control unit.

Sealed battery
If the vehicle is provided with a sealed battery, the only maintenance required is the check of its charge
and recharging, if necessary.
These operations should be carried out before delivering the vehicle, and on a six-month basis while
the vehicle is stored in open circuit.
Besides, upon pre-delivery it is therefore necessary to check the battery charge and recharge it, if
required, before storing the vehicle and, afterwards, every six months.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE BATTERY REFRESH AFTER OPEN-CIRCUIT STORAGE
1) Voltage check
Before installing the battery on the vehicle, check the open circuit voltage with a regular tester.
- If voltage exceeds 12.60 V, the battery can be installed without any renewal recharge.
- If voltage is below 12.60 V, a renewal recharge is required as explained in 2).
2) Constant voltage battery charge mode
- Constant voltage charge equal to 14.40 ÷ 14.70V
- Initial charge voltage equal to 0.3 ÷ 0.5 for Nominal capacity
- Charge time:
10 to 12 h recommended
Minimum 6 h
Maximum 24 h
3) Constant current battery charge mode
- Charge current equal to 1/10 of the nominal capacity of the battery
- Charge time: 5 h
CAUTION
NEVER USE FUSES WITH A CAPACITY HIGHER THAN THE RECOMMENDED CAPACITY. USING
A FUSE OF UNSUITABLE RATING MAY SERIOUSLY DAMAGE THE VEHICLE OR EVEN CAUSE
A FIRE.
CHARGE THE BATTERY BEFORE USE TO ENSURE OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE. INADEQUATE
CHARGING OF THE BATTERY WITH A LOW ELECTROLYTE LEVEL BEFORE IT IS FIRST USED
SHORTENS THE LIFE OF THE BATTERY.
IF THE VEHICLE IS NOT USED FOR SOME TIME (1 MONTH OR MORE) THE BATTERY NEEDS
TO BE RECHARGED PERIODICALLY. THE BATTERY RUNS DOWN COMPLETELY IN THE
COURSE OF THREE MONTHS. IF IT IS NECESSARY TO REFIT THE BATTERY IN THE VEHICLE,
BE CAREFUL NOT TO REVERSE THE CONNECTIONS TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THAT THE
GROUND WIRE (BLACK) MARKED(-) MUST BE CONNECTED TO THE - NEGATIVE TERMINAL
Electrical system
X8 125-200
ELE SYS - 82
WHILE THE OTHER TWO RED WIRES MARKED (+) MUST BE CONNECTED TO THE TERMINAL
MARKED WITH THE +POSITIVE SIGN
WARNING
WHEN THE BATTERY IS REALLY FLAT (WELL BELOW 12.6V) IT MIGHT OCCUR THAT 5 HOURS
OF RECHARGING ARE NOT ENOUGH TO ACHIEVE OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE.
GIVEN THESE CONDITIONS IT IS HOWEVER ESSENTIAL NOT TO EXCEED 8 HOURS OF CON-
TINUOUS RECHARGING SO AS NOT TO DAMAGE THE BATTERY ITSELF.
Dry-charge battery
COMMISSIONING A NEW DRY-CHARGED BATTERY
- Remove the battery air pipe stop cap and each single cell cap.
- Fill the battery with electrolyte of 1.270+/-0.01 kg/l density (corresponding to 31+/-1 Bé) with an am-
bient temperature not below 15°C, until it reaches the upper level indicated on the block.
- Tilt the battery slightly to remove any air bubbles formed during filling.
- Place the caps on each single cell filling hole without screwing them and leave the battery to rest.
During this stage, the battery is subjected to a gasification phenomenon and temperature increases.
- Let it rest until it reaches ambient temperature (this stage can take up to 60 minutes).
- Tilt the battery slightly to facilitate the elimination of any gas bubbles present inside; restore the level
using the same filling electrolyte
Note: This is the last time that electrolyte can be added. Future top-ups should be done only with distilled
water;
- Before 24 hours elapse, recharge the battery following these steps:
- Connect the battery charger terminals observing the correct polarity;
- Wit the battery charger drw. 020333Y and/or drw. 020334Y operate the battery charger control by
selecting the position corresponding to that capacity;
- Otherwise, charge the battery with direct current equal to 1/10 of rated capacity (e.g. for a battery with
a 9Ah rated capacity, the charging current should be 0.9-1.0A) for approximately a 4-6 hour charge.
Note: Batteries that have been stored for a long time may take a longer charging time. The battery
chargers drw. 020333Y and drw. 020334Y have an automatic protection which interrupts the recharge
after 12 hours to avoid battery harmful heating. In this case, a green LED turns on to indicate the
activation of the safety system and not the end of the charge.
- Let the open circuit battery rest for approximately 4-6 hours; then check the off-load voltage using a
standard tester.
- If the open-circuit voltage is higher or equal to 12.6V, the battery is charged adequately. Slightly shake
or tilt the battery to eliminate any air bubbles formed during recharging.
- Check the electrolyte levels again, fill them with distilled water up to the upper level line if necessary,
clean battery properly, close each single cell cap tightly and install it on the vehicle.
- If the voltage indicated is low, charge the battery another 4-6 hours in the way described above.

Electrical system
ELE SYS - 83
Note: With the battery charger drw. 020334Y, it is possible to check the battery charge level with the
Check function. The value indicated on the display must be higher than the value indicated on the chart;
otherwise, recharge the battery again in the same way indicated above.
