STARTING THE CYCLE

STARTING THE ENGINE

- Make sure that the moped is in neutral (this is shown on the control
panel).
- Check to see that there is fuel in the tank.
- Turn the fuel tap to the "ON" position.
- Turn the ignition key clockwise (to the "ON" position), in order to
open the electric circuits required for the engine to start.
- If the engine is cold, operate the choke by lifting the lever on the
right-hand side of the carburettor (as illustrated on this page). This
should provide a richer fuel mixture.
- Without operating the accelerator grip, press the electric starting
button.
- If the engine still fails to start properly, you may also operate the
starting lever.

STOPPING THE ENGINE

- Change down to neutral (the relevant control-panel pilot light will
come on).
- Accelerate slightly, and then turn off the supply of fuel and press
the stop button.
- Turn the key anticlockwise. The key will lodge to the left, a position
where all the electric circuits remain closed. The engine will not start.
- You will be able to remove the ignition key.
- Finally, turn the fuel tap to the "OFF" position.
NOTE
Unless the engine is started when the ignition key is on the
"ON" position, the battery may lose some power.

CHOKE

The choke is a device that increases the supply of fuel to a given
extent, without the need to operate the accelerator grip, in order to
help the operation of a cold engine. The engine will quickly reach
its optimum working temperature with no danger to its component
parts.
(A)
To use the choke, lift the lever on the left-hand side of the carburettor
(A). This will allow the engine to start on reaching a given amount
of revolutions.
