Throttle Cable Adjustment
NOTE: If the proper freeplay cannot be obtained with the
throttle block adjuster, adjust the cable at the carburetor
using the following procedure. See III. 1 and 3.
1. Remove fuel tank.
2. Slide boot off throttle cable adjuster and jam nut.
3. Loosen lock nut and turn adjuster until proper throttle
lever freeplay is obtained.
4. Tighten locknut and slide boot back over adjuster.
5. Reinstall fuel tank.
6. Check for proper throttle operation and correct
freeplay in all handlebar positions.
Choke Adjustments
With the choke control toggle flipped to the full off position,
the choke plunger must be seated on the fuel passage way
in the carburetor. If the plunger is not seated on the pas-
sage way, the engine will flood or run too rich, causing plug
fouling and very poor engine performance.
If cable slack is too great there will be excessive toggle free
play resulting in hard cold starting. Also, the half on position
used for intermittent applications will not function.
1. Flip choke toggle to full off position.
2. Loosen adjustment locknut (A) on carburetor.
3. Turn cable sleeve adjusting nut (8) clockwise on
carburetor until
1/4"
(6 mm) or more choke toggle free
play is evident.
4. Turn cable sleeve adjusting nut counterclockwise on
carburetor until toggle has zero free play, then rotate it
clockwise until
1/8"-1/4"
(3-6 mm) toggle free play is
evident.
5. Tighten adjustment locknut (A).
Throttle Control Lever Stop Adjustment
The throttle control lever incorporates an adjustable stop.
This can be adjusted to limit the amount of throttle opening
by loosening the screw (A) and sliding the stop to a desired
setting. Then tighten screw. See III. 4.
