!can result in reduced braking ability.

Adjusting the throttle wire

The throttle cable may need to be adjusted, if the engine does not respond as it should when accelerating, if it produces black smoke or maximum revs are not reached.

1Release the clamping screw that secures the wire casing and set the choke control to maximum choke.

2Pull the choke wire casing to the far right and tighten the clamping screw.

3Pull back the throttle to the full throttle position and check that the choke is no longer actuated.

Replacing the air filter

If the engine seems to lack power or does not run smoothly this may be because the air filter is clogged. It is therefore important to replace the air filter at regular intervals (see Maintenance/Maintenance Schedule for the correct service interval).

Replace the air filter as follows:

1Open the engine cover.

2Pull up the handle on the air filter cover, unhook and turn towards the engine.

3Remove the air filter cover.
