5-3 Assembly of the Outer Tube

(A) T300
(1) Slip the outer tube into the joint
until the tube bottoms. The outer
tube or gear case shaft may have to
be rotated slightly for the splines on
the main shaft to fully engage to the
engine.
(2) Place the D-shaped shim washer
with its flat side up in the gap of the
joint. Then, tighten the joint bolt
securely using the hex wrench.
(3) Loosen the screw which tightens
the throttle lever to the outer tube.
Shift the throttle lever toward the
blade.
(4) Put the throttle cable into the
tube. Push throttle cable through
hole in rear grip.
(5) Set the throttle cable onto the
throttle lever. Use the wrench so that
the wire edge goes into the slot of the
throttle lever securely.
NOTE:
Make sure that the throttle cable is
built into the cable guide of the
throttle lever.
(6) Shift the throttle lever back to
original position, pulling the earth
cord and throttle cable and tighten
the screw securely.
(7) Remove the bolt tightening the
cylinder cover.
(8) Put the bolt through the hole of
the earth cord terminal and tighten
the bolt.
(B) C300
(1) Slip the outer tube into the joint
until the tube bottoms (up to the
insert label). The outer tube or gear
case shaft may have to be rotated
slightly for the splines on the main
shaft to fully engage to the engine.
(2) Locate the outer tube so that the
stopper bolt can go into the stopper
hole. Using the hex wrench, tighten
the stopper bolt securely.
(3) Place the D-shaped shim washer
with its flat side up in the gap of the
joint. Then, tighten the joint bolt
securely using the hex wrench.
(4) Loosen the stopper bolt of the
throttle grip. Remove the stopper
bolt and nut.
(5) Fully loosen the clamp bolt of
the throttle grip.
