Page 14: Stopping The Machine
STOPPING THE MACHINE To stop the machine, close the throttle, declutch by lifting the large lever on the left handlebar, and gently apply both brakes, increasing the pressure on them as the road speed of the machine decreases. Place the gear change foot pedal in the neutral position and stop the engine. - Page 15 NOTES ON DRIVING If, at first, the lowest gear will not engage, release the clutch lever and after a second or two, make another attempt. This condition may exist in a new machine, but it tends to disappear after a little use. Always endeavour to make the movements of hand (on the clutch) and foot (on the gear pedal) as simultaneous as possible, and remember, in all gear changes, a steady pressure of the foot is desirable.
- Page 16 LUBRICATION LUBRICANTS TO USE Efficient lubrication is of vital importance and it is false economy to use cheap oils and greases. We recommend the following lubricants to use in machines of our make. FOR ENGINE LUBRICATION COLD EXTREME COLD above 50° F 32°...
-
Page 17: Engine Lubrication System
ENGINE LUBRICATION SYSTEM This is by dry sump system. Oil feeds, by gravity, from the oil tank to the pump in the crankcase. The pump forces oil to various parts, which then drains to the bottom of crankcase sump. The pump then returns oil to the tank. This process Is continuous while the engine is revolving. - Page 18 Illustration 3 Engine Oil Circulation THE OIL TANK A N D FILTER The level of oil in the supply tank should never be allowed to fall below the low level mark and, upon replenishment, should not be higher than the top level mark other- wise, when starting the engine, the bulk of oil in the crankcase sump may be greater than the space available in the tank.
- Page 19 CHECKING OIL CIRCULATION Provision is made to observe the oil in circulation and it is advisable to do this before each run. If the filler cap on the oil tank is removed the end of the oil return pipe will be noticed below the level of the filler cap orifice and the returning oil can be seen running from it.
- Page 20 TO REMOVE T H E MAGNETIC FILTER (located in the crankcase) Incorporated with the crankcase drain plug is a powerful magnetic filter. To remove the filter merely unscrew the plug. As the metal particles will adhere very strongly to the magnet they must be forcibly removed by wiping the magnet with a greased rag.
-
Page 21: Chain Lubrication
CHAIN LUBRICATION Front driving chain and dynamo chain run in oil bath. (Front chaincase.) Use engine oil. Maintain level to height of the inspection cap opening. Oil in front chaincase also lubricates the engine shock absorber. Transmission harshness generally Indicates level of oil in chaincase is too low. Remove chaincase inspection cap each week, inspect level of oil, top-up as necessary. -
Page 22: Brake Pedal Lubrication
BRAKE ROD JOINT LUBRICATION A few drops of engine oil on each brake rod yoke end pin and on the threaded portion of brake rod. (One pin on yoke each end of brake rod and on bottom of front brake cable.) BRAKE PEDAL LUBRICATION Grease nipple in heel of foot brake pedal. -

- Page 27 TO REMOVE THE PETROL TANK Close both petrol taps and remove the cap nut securing each petrol pipe banjo con- nector. Use two spanners, one to hold the tap and the other to unscrew the cap nut. Beware losing the fibre washers (4 in ail) fitted one each side of each banjo connection. Cut the wires interlacing the four fixing bolts.
- Page 28 DECARBONISATION Instead of the usual stipulated mileage interval between periods of decarbonisation, it is recommended that this is undertaken only when the need for same becomes apparent because of excessive pinking, loss of power or generally reduced performance. When undertaken, unless it is thought necessary to inspect the piston and rings, the cylinder barrel is best left undisturbed.

A blunt piece of soft brass will be found quite suitable and the use of such will obviate the risk of making deep scratches. Care is necessary to avoid damaging the valve seatings and in no circumstances should any abrasive material, such as emery, or emery cloth, be used for cleaning and polishing.
- Page 31 The grinding is accomplished by smearing a thin layer of fine grinding paste (obtainable ready for use at any garage) on the valve face and then, after inserting the valve in the head, partially revolve, forwards and backwards, while applying light finger pressure to the head, raising the valve off its seat and turning to another position after every few movements.

Page 34: Tappet Adjustment
TAPPET ADJUSTMENT The top ends of the two long push rods have screwed extensions. These are locked in position by nuts, thereby providing tappet adjustment. The correct tappet clearances, on all models, with valves closed and engine warm (not hot) is NIL. This means the push rods should be free enough to revolve and, at the same time, there should be no appreciable up and down play. - Page 35 TO RE-TIME T H E I G N I T I O N The normal advance is 39° (½"). Have available a stout screwdriver, or an old type tyre lever with turned up end, also a small rod or stout wheel spoke 5½" long. Before setting the ignition firing point it is essential the magneto contact breaker points are correctly adjusted.

T W I S T GRIP ADJUSTMENT A screw is provided in one of the halves of the twist grip body to regulate the spring tension on the grip rotating sleeve. This screw, which is locked by a nut, must be screwed into the body to increase the tension. - Page 41 TRANSMISSION SERVICE THE GEAR BOX The gear box provides four speeds and has a positive foot change, operated by the right foot and a kick-starter. It is retained to the frame by being clamped between the two engine rear plates by two bolts.
- Page 42 The trip mechanism referred to allows the foot change lever to return to its normal position, upon foot pressure being released, in readiness for the next change of gear. Downward direction of movement causes engagement of higher gears and upward movement with the toes causes a lower gear to become engaged.
- Page 43 TO RE-ASSEMBLE If gears have been disturbed insert them in their proper order with slider shafts in correct location and apply end plate with paper joint gasket in position. Re-fit the three cheese head screws and firmly tighten down with a stout screwdriver- Then insert conical ended plunger and spring and apply the gear selection cam barrel with anyone of the depressions on its underside engaging with the conical end of the spring loaded plunger.

Pull on the rear chain to move the gearbox, and tighten the front chain. - Page 49 NOTES ON REAR CHAIN ADJUSTMENT Before tightening the rear chain always first check front chain adjustment and if attention is necessary adjust the front chain first. This is because adjustment of the front chain disturbs that of the rear chain. Therefore, after making adjustment to the tension of the front chain, always afterwards check that of the rear chain.
- Page 50 MAGNETO CHAIN ADJUSTMENT The magneto platform hinges on one of its fixing bolts. This provides sufficient move- ment for adjustment to the magneto driving chain. Tighten magneto chain by : Remove magneto chain case cover. Slacken nut on rear bolt supporting magneto platform. insert a screwdriver under that end of the magneto platform and lever upwards until the chain tension is correct.
- Page 51 FORK & FRAME SERVICE STEERING HEAD ADJUSTMENT The steering head frame races are of the floating self-aligning type and have spherical seats. Therefore they do not fit tightly in the head lug. Occasionally test the steering head for correct adjustment by exerting pressure upwards from the extreme ends of the handlebars.
- Page 52 Illustration 17 Introduced in early 1941, for use under strenuous war conditions by all the allied armies. It remains unaltered, except in detail, to this day, and copied practically universally. The hydraulic dampers operate in tubular members located inside the main tubes. As will be seen the aluminium sliding members operate upon steel bushes attached to the bottom ends of the main tubes and also upon bakelite bushes, secured to the top end of the...
- Page 53 has no other source of escape but past this sleeve and the adjacent small metered bleed hole. This intentionally restricted passage causes a considerable damper effect to the recoil action. It will thus be gathered that on the shock movement of the fork, slight damper action occurs, with a greatly increased damper action on the reverse movement, both actions automatically increasing in effect the more violent the movement.

Reassembly is carried out in exactly reverse order, care being necessary after pressing in the brake side bearing ring sufficiently far to permit fitting the circlip, to then force the ring back until seal cup (5) is tightly in contact with the retaining circlip before proceeding with further assembly. -
Page 67: Rear Brake Adjustment
REAR BRAKE ADJUSTMENT Major adjustment of the rear brake shoes is made on the brake thrust pins, by fitting packing washers under the pins, as already described. Minor adjustment of the rear brake shoes is made by altering the position, on the brake rod, of the knurled adjusting nut. -
Page 68: Brake Pedal Adjustment
BRAKE SHOES The front and rear brake shoes, springs and expanders are interchangeable. The two shoes in each brake are N O T identical, they are " handed." One end of each shoe bears on a fulcrum fixed in the brake cover plate. The other end accommodates a detachable thrust pin. - Page 69 When a brake cover plate has been disturbed, it is advisable, upon re-assembly, to centralise the shoes in the brake drum to ensure equal pressure to each. In the case of the front wheel this is best done before re-fitting the wheel to the machine, but in the case of the rear wheel it is best done after re-fitting.

Page 75: Battery Removal
Normally, during day-time running, when the battery is in good condition, the dynamo gives only a trickle charge, so that the ammeter reading will seldom exceed 1 to 2 amperes, i.e. half to one division on scale. The cut-out is an automatic switch which is connected between the dynamo and the battery. - Page 76 The specific gravity of the electrolyte indicates the state of charge of the battery. Wit h a fully charged battery the specific gravity of the electrolyte should be 1·280 to 1·300. Check the gravity by means of a hydrometer, and if it is below 1·150 the battery should be charged as soon as possible by the normal running of the motor cycle.
