Timing Belt Tension; Transmission; Throttle Gas Cable; Clutch - Gilera Nordwest Workshop Manual

TIMING BELT TENSION (Fig. 62 on previous page)
In order to carry out this operation, remove the cover located on cylinder head
left side. Loosen the belt tensioner nut (A) and, by means of kick lever, rotate
the belt until the piston is at TDC point (compression position - fully closed
valves).
The spring fixed on both sides (B - C pins), will automatically arrange for the
belt charging, restoring the correct tension.
Tighten the nut (A) to the appropriate torque (28 ÷ 30 Kgm).
Warning:
Never rotate the timing pullies acting on the relevant fixing screws.

TRANSMISSION

Throttle gas cable

Assure that the throttle transmission grip rotate freely when steering on both
sides.
Check the grip free play (standard ply: 4 mm) (Fig. 63).
In case restore the correct play by operating on the adjusting screw (over the
carburettor).

Clutch

The clutch control lever free play is 5 ÷ 8 mm (fig. 64).
Periodically it is advisable to adjust this clearance, acting on the proper screw.
In case of clutch malfunctioning, act on the right side cover lever, changing the
keying position pin.
