Increase opener cable play.
Reduce play of the closer cable by the same
amount, taking the total play of both cables into
account.
Check the operation of the throttle twist grip.
When released, the twistgrip must snap back to
the closed position.
Increase play on throttle opener cable to a maxi-
mum of 1.5 mm (0.0591 in).
Check operation of the microswitch (2) and the
actuating mechanism on the throttle-valve spind-
le.

green mark (arrow) at throttle-valve spindle.
Make sure that the throttle cables are correctly
routed, and that the bends are not too tight.
Retainer (5) is at the white marks on the throttle
cables.
