Stamped LIT-11616-DT-17, this is the service manual Yamaha issued to its dealer network for the DT175E. One book was written to cover both the 1978 and 1979 machines, and the smaller DT125 sits alongside them in the same volume, so the shop procedures you follow were verified across all of that hardware.
Check the code on your frame plate against DT175E before ordering. That letter is what separates your bike from the following season's, and the manual is organised around those codes rather than around the year printed on a title page.
Working from it
- Disassembly and reassembly sequences, written in the order a technician performs them
- Torque figures, clearances and adjustment limits
- Wiring diagrams and electrical testing
- Fault-tracing tables for running and starting problems
If you are rebuilding a top end, chasing a charging fault or simply setting the ignition correctly, the factory figures in here are the ones the rest of the bike was designed around.
