GENERAL INFORMATION

The choke and air intake system is a simple mechanism requiring very little or no maintenance. The system consists of
a choke assembly mounted at the center of the kick plate. An air filter housing draws clean, cool air from beneath the
vehicle via an opening between the kick plate and the fuel bucket. The air passes through an air filter, through the
choke assembly, and through a hose to the carburetor. (Figure 22-8, Page 22-10)
The choke system aids in starting the engine in cold weather. When starting a cold engine, the spring loaded choke
cover is pushed in by hand. This restricts the air flow, creating a "fuel rich" mixture in the carburetor. The choke cover
is held in until the engine starts, and then is released. The air flow to the engine is no longer restricted, and the
engine operates normally.
The choke assembly is adjusted at the factory and does not require field adjustment; however, if the choke assembly is
subjected to abuse or damaged, it may become necessary to replace the assembly.
