ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Assembly of engine and drive shaft
For RBC220, RBC250, RBC225, RBC255
1. Loosen the screws M5x18 and insert the drive shaft
into the holder case. (Fig. 1)
(Note)
Always insert the drive shaft into the holder case fully
(approx. 63 mm; 2-1/2"). If the inner shaft resists full
insertion of the drive shaft, try to insert it again after
slightly rotating the drive shaft or the support washer
on the gear case to match the inner shaft to the hole
inside the holder case.
2. After making sure that the drive shaft is installed fully
and properly, tighten the screws M5x18 to secure the
drive shaft.
3. Connection of throttle wire
1) Connect the throttle wire as shown in Fig. 2 and
firmly close the cable joint. (Fig. 2)
2) Squeeze the throttle lever to make sure that the
throttle wire moves smoothly.
4. Connect the switch cords to the two cords from the
engine by inserting one into the other.
5. Wrap the waist pad around the drive shaft so that the
hanger will protrude through the slit in the waist pad
and the throttle wire and the cords will also be
wrapped under the waist pad. (Fig. 3)
6. Insert the bullet connectors through the holes in the
cover. (Fig. 4)
