MAINTENANCE

Checking and adjustment of the throttle wire

If the engine does not respond as it should do when the throttle lever is moved or if the top speed is not reached, the throttle wire may need adjusting.

1. Loosen the clamping screw (by the arrow), and slide the throttle to the choke position.

2.Pull the throttle wire’s casing as far as possible to the right and check that the choke is fully actuated.

3. Tighten the clamping screw.

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

Replacement of the fuel filter

Replace the pipe fitted fuel filter every 100 running hours (once per season) or more frequently if it is clogged.

Replace the filter as follows:

1.Fold open the engine cover as described on page 21.

2.Move the hose clips away from the filter. Use a pair of flat pliers.

3.Pull off the filter from the hose ends.

4.Press in the new filter on the hose ends. If necessary soap solution can be applied on the filter ends to simplify fitting.

5.Push the hose clips back on the filter.
