Tanaka MOBY XL Service Manual page 23

On the Moby PowerBoard, the front disc brake and throttle are cable actuated. Cables should be periodically
inspected to ensure that they move smoothly, and offer full range of motion in order to maximize braking ability
and full range of throttle. Cables that have been kinked, corroded, frayed or worn significantly should be
replaced.

Cables / Controls
Throttle Cable
To identify if the throttle cable/lever are providing full
range of motion, first disconnect the cable from the
carburetor (Fig. 13). This is accomplished by first
removing the air cleaner cover, then rotating the throttle
to the full speed position. This will allow the throttle wire
end to be removed from the receiver on the carburetor.
With the throttle wire removed, actuate the carburetor
throttle and observe the full range of motion. Re-attach
the wire and make sure that this full range is achievable
with the throttle lever (Fig, 14). If not, adjustments can
be made at the carburetor as well as the handlebar
mounted lever.
For proper adjustment of the front brake cable, refer to
the section addressing brakes.
