ENGINE START (TXC)

Make sure the fuel tap is in the OPEN position, then shift gear

pedal in neutral position.

Pull the starter knob (BLACK knob (2) for cold starting*, RED

knob (3) for warm starting), pull the clutch control lever,

then press the engine start button (1).

Release the clutch control lever.

*: after a prolonged inactivity of the motorcycle or in presence

of a low external temperature.

Though the engine is provided with an automatic decompressor,

can be necessary, in some cases (carburetor flooding or starting

difficulties due to a battery inadequate charge), to use the man-

ual starting decompressor on the L.H. side of the handlebar. In

these cases, pull the lever (5) whilst simultaneously pressing

the starter button, release the lever (5) keeping the button

pressed and afterwards release the latter as well.

In order to adjust the lever decompressor free play (approximately

3 mm- 0.12 in.), the lever holder is provided with the adjuster (6);

the adjustment can be also effected with the tightener (7) on the

R.H. side of the engine (use this tightener if it is not possible to ob-

tain the correct free play with the adjuster on the handlebar).
