IMPORTANT
Never accelerate the engine after a cold start.
WARNING*: Exhaust contains poisonous car -
bon monoxide gas. Never run the engine in a
closed garage or in a confined area.
WARNING*: This high performance motor -
cycle can some times «kick back» strongly
when you are starting it.
Do not attempt to start this motorcycle unless
you are wearing high top heavy sided rid -
ing boots. You could seriously hurt you leg
if the kickstarter kicked back and your foot
slipped.
ENGINE START
For the correct start of a cold engine proceed as follows:
- shift the transmission into neutral;
- set fuel valve (1) in ON position;
- lift the knob lever (3) on the carburetor.
Leaving the throttle in closed position operate kick-start (4).
Take the knob lever in its initial position as soon as the engine
is idling.
When starting with an already warmed up engine DO NOT USE
the starter. You can start the engine with the gear inserted, after
disconnecting of the clutch.
If the carburetor is flooded, shut off the fuel supply and the
starter and operate the crank lever or the kick-start until the
engine starts. If necessary, remove the spark plug and dry it.
IMPORTANT NOTE IN CASE OF COLD STARTS
AT LOW TEMPERATURES
It is recommended to briefly warm-up
the engine at idle until, after having
disengaged the starter, there is a nor -
mal response from the engine when
opening the throttle.
This will enable the lubricant to reach
the correct working temperature there -
by guaranteeing a correct functioning of
all engine parts.
Avoid overheating the engine.
