Yazoo/Kees ZMKW52212, ZMKH61252 Lubricating the Cables, Throttle and Choke Cables, Lever Bearings

LUBRICATION

Lubricating the Cables

If possible, grease both ends of the cables and move the controls to end stop positions when lubricating. Refit the rubber covers on the cables after lubrication. Cables with sheaths will bind if they are not lubricated regularly. If a cable binds, it can disrupt operation.

If a cable binds, remove the cable and hang it vertically. Lubricate it with light engine oil until the oil begins to escape from the bottom.

Tip:	Fill a small plastic bag with oil and tape
	it so that it seals against the sheath
	and allow the cable to hang vertically
	from the bag overnight. If you do not
	succeed in lubricating the cable, it
	must be replaced.

Throttle and Choke Cables, Lever Bearings

Lubricate the cable ends by the carburetor with an oil can. Move the controls to the end points and lubricate again.

The throttle cable is also lubricated by the control when the control console is removed.

The illustration shows the Kawasaki engine.

Shaft Bushings and Linkage

Lubricate the bearings of the shafts and linkage for the brake system and steering with oil spray or oil can.

Front Wheel Mount

Lubricate with a grease gun, one zerk for each wheel mount, until the grease is forced out.

Use only good quality molybdenum disulphide grease.

Grease from well-known brand names (petrochemical companies, etc.) usually maintains a good quality.
