THROTTLE CABLE ADJUSTMENT
The throttle cable may be adjusted using the adjuster
screw on the cable itself or the adjuster screw on the car-
burettor cover. To check for proper adjustment of throttle
cable, proceed as follows:
- move the rubber cap (1) aside;
- move transmission sheath to and fro to ensure a play
of approx. 1 mm;
- should play be greater than 1 mm (0.04 in.), loosen
lock nut (2) and register (3); should play less than 1
mm (0.04 in.), then tighten lock nut and register;

- if register (3) should not provide sufficient movement
to allow for correct adjustment, then adjust register
placed on carburetor.
There should be approx. 1 mm (0.04 in.) play on latter
register; otherwise, move the rubber cap (4) aside and,
after loosening the check nut (6), loosen or tighten the
adjuster screw (5) to reduce or increase free play.
WARNING*: Operation with damaged
throttle cable could result in an unsafe
riding condition.

ADJUSTING THE IDLE
Idling should be adjusted only when the engine is hot
and throttle is closed, as follows:
- turn idle adjusting screw (1) so as to increase rpm
(1500 rpm ± 100 rev) (turn clockwise to increase rpms,
counterclockwise to decrease rpm).
WARNING*: Exhaust gas contains poiso-
nous carbon monoxide gas. Never run
the engine in a closed area or in a con-
fined area.
