CONTROL FUNCTIONS

CONTROL FUNCTIONS

The engine stop switch 1 is located on the left

handlebar. Continue pushing the engine stop

switch till the engine comes to a stop.

The clutch lever 1 is located on the left han-

dlebar; it disengages or engages the clutch.

Pull the clutch lever to the handlebar to disen-

gage the clutch, and release the lever to

engage the clutch. The lever should be pulled

rapidly and released slowly for smooth starts.

The gear ratios of the constant-mesh 5 speed

transmission are ideally spaced. The gears

can be shifted by using the shift pedal 1 on

the left side of the engine.

KICKSTARTER CRANK

Rotate the kickstarter crank 1 away from the

engine. Push the starter down lightly with your

foot until the gears engage, then kick smoothly

and forcefully to start the engine. This model

has a primary kickstarter crank so the engine

can be started in any gear if the clutch is dis-

engaged. In normal practices, however, shift to

neutral before starting.

THROTTLE GRIP

The throttle grip 1 is located on the right han-

dlebar; it accelerates or decelerates the

engine. For acceleration, turn the grip toward

you; for deceleration, turn it away from you.
