Clutch control free play adjustment
Attention
The wrong adjustment can seriously endanger
the clutch functions and durability.
The clutch cable can be tight due to wearing.
Check free play each time before using the vehicle.
Make sure the engine is cold before checking.
By engaging clutch lever a very low resistance force
to a considerably high one must be perceived (work
force).
The free play is the lever play in correspondence of
which the resistance force is kept low.
Pull lever through its free play travel and make sure
that the distance "A" is between 0.12 - 0.16 in (3 - 4
mm).
To take the free play back to the recommended value,
make sure that it is not zero. Act on the main adjuster
(2) close to the clutch control.
