THROTTLE CONTROL ADJUSTMENTS
The throttle control settings are
factory adjusted and unnecessary
adjustments should not be made.
However, if the engine does not
start or stop, or if it does not re-
spond to various throttle lever set-
tings' then the following adjust-
ments may be necessary.
DANGER
To prevent personal injury,
stop the engine, disconnect
the spark plug wire, and let
the engine and muffler cool
before inspecting or adjust-
ing the throttle control.
1. With the engine shut off and the
spark plug wire disconnected, put
the throttle control lever (on the
handlebar) in the FAST setting.
2. If the throttle control is properly
adjusted, the Control Lever on the
engine (see Fig. 5) should touch
the High Speed Stop tab located on
the throttle control bracket. If the
Control Lever does not touch the
High Speed Stop tab, proceed to
Step 3.
3. Loosen the Cable Clamp Screw
(Fig. 5) until the Throttle Cable is
free to move in the Cable Clamp
(do not remove the screw).
4. Push the Throttle Cable up until
the Control Lever touches the High
Speed Stop tab.
5. Hold the Control Lever at this
position and securely tighten the
Cable Clamp Screw.
6. Test the function of the throttle
control by moving it back and
forth between the FAST and STOP
positions. If properly adjusted, the
Control Lever should contact the
High Speed Stop tab and the Shut
Off Clip.
7. If you are unable to properly
adjust the cable, contact your local
authorized dealer or the Factory.
IMPORTANT: The Control
Lever must contact the Shut Off
Clip in order to shut off the
