MAINTENANCE

Checking and Adjusting the Throttle

Cable

Check that the engine responds to throttle increases and that a good engine speed is attained at full throttle.

If doubts arise, contact your service representative.

If adjustments are necessary, they can be made as follows for the lower cable:

1.Loosen the clamping screw for the cable’s outer casing and move the throttle to the full throttle position.

2.Check that the throttle cable is mounted in the correct hole in the lower lever, see illustration.

3.Push the throttle cable’s outer casing as far to the left as possible and tighten the clamping screw.

Checking and Adjusting the Choke Cable

If the engine produces black smoke or is difficult to start, this can be because the choke cable is incorrectly adjusted (upper cable).

If doubts arise, contact your service representative.

If adjustments are necessary, they can be made as follows:

1. Loosen the clamping screw for the cable’s outer casing and move the choke lever to the full choke position.

2.Check that the choke cable is mounted in the upper lever, see illustration.

3.Pull the choke cable’s outer casing as far to the right as possible and tighten the clamping screw.

Inspecting the Muffler

Check regularly that the muffler is complete and secured correctly.

Temperature variations and vibrations can mean that the tightening torque for the screws drops. The screws should be checked when servicing to guarantee the correct torque. The tightening torque should be about 10 Nm. Never use a defective muffler.

WARNING!

The muffler gets very hot in use and remains so for a short time afterwards. Contact can result in burns. Remember the risk of fire.
