Gear Box; Stopping The Moped; Adjustment - GAS GAS HALLEY 125 SM/EC 09 User Manual

Turn off the choke (B) after a few seconds, as the engine will have
then reached the right temperature. To turn off the choke, just turn
the accelerator grip as far as it will go.
NOTE
If the engine should flood, start the moped with the accelerator
fully on. The moped may be started with one gear in, if you
press the clutch.

GEAR BOX

This being a six-gear transmission with a return gear, shifting from
first to third gear requires going through second gear, i.e. shifting
gears upwards in a sequence.
To go into first gear from neutral it is imperative to press the clutch,
then step on the gearbox pedal, release the gearbox pedal and
finally release the clutch slowly.
ATTENTION
When shifting gears, press firmly on the gearbox pedal in order to
ensure a positive shift. Incomplete gear shifting may cause the
transmission to go into the wrong gear, thus damaging the engine.

STOPPING THE MOPED

For maximum deceleration, release the accelerator grip and operate
both the front and rear brakes. Release the clutch and the moped
will gradually stop. A separate use of either the front or the rear
brake may be advantageous under certain conditions.
Change down sequentially while decelerating, to ensure the right
response from the engine when you wish to accelerate.

ADJUSTMENT

The smooth operation required to maximize engine and transmission
performance must be achieved through a previous running-in process.
During the first 100 Km, have the engine running at low speed and
a moderate rpm level.
Low speed during the running-in process may result in a dirty
sparking plug. Check the condition of the standard sparking
plug supplied and replace it, if necessary, with one of a higher
thermal grade.
During the initial 500 km, it is advisable not to go beyond medium
speed for a long time and to avoid any type of situation that might
cause the engine to reach too high a temperature. However, short-
time (3 to 4 seconds) accelerations cannot damage the engine; on
the contrary, they are beneficial. Every acceleration sequence must
be followed by a rest period, to allow the engine to remove all of the
heat accumulated.
During this initial 500 km, it is advisable not to keep a constant speed,
but to change it instead every now and then.
During the next 1000km, it is advisable not to go beyond 3/4 of the
speed available for a long time.
In any event, reckless accelerations may suffice to cause engine
trouble. Be sure to always apply the skills and techniques required
for a proper use of this moped.
