Clutch Adjustment; Chain Lubrication; Chain Tightening - GAS GAS HALLEY 125 SM/EC 09 User Manual

CLUTCH ADJUSTMENT

Clutch adjustment may be carried out by means of the tightening
device supplied with the handle. This is achieved by tightening or
loosening the tightening screw, as required. The handle should have
a 4-5 mm clearance. Due to its hydraulic action, the clutch assembly
requires no handle-clearance adjustments.

CHAIN LUBRICATION

The chain should be cleaned and checked periodically. To achieve
this, remove the chain while keeping the hook at one of its ends,
which will both confirm its previous position and avoid the risk of
losing it. Clean the chain thoroughly with a metal brush, by submerging
it in a petrol bath and shaking it until all of its links are clean and
free from obstructions. Submerge it again in clean petrol or gas oil,
rinse and allow it to dry for a few minutes. Lubricate and reassemble
it, always making sure that the hook is placed in the opposite direction
to the chain movement. It is most advisable to lubricate the chain
every 100 or 200 Kms with special chain-lubrication oil.

CHAIN TIGHTENING

Tightening and aligning the chain is easily achieved by loosening
the nuts on the wheel axle (A) and by turning the nuts on the chain
tighteners (B) as required, until the right chain tension or sag is
achieved, together with a proper wheel centering and alignment.
