Throttle cable adjustment is setting
the amount of “throw” or “travel” the
cable pulls on the throttle arm.
The throttle cable housing end
fi
tting is
threaded to allow for adjustment. This
adjustment can increase or decrease the
amount the cable moves the throttle arm.
To increase the amount of throttle travel, loosen
the jam nut closest to the throttle arm and slide
the housing away from the throttle arm. Then
tighten the nut on the back side of the throttle
bracket. Doing this will increase the amount of the
inner throttle cable showing between the throttle
bracket and the throttle arm. This process will
allow more travel on the throttle, thus making
the kart’s top speed faster. To slow down the top
speed of the kart, the process would be reversed.
NOTE:
It is important to note that this adjustment
should be done by quali
fi
ed personnel, and
any adjustments should be done in small
increments. If the throttle is over-adjusted,
the cable will not allow the arm to go to full
rest. The electric kart WILL NOT FUNCTION
if the throttle arm is not at full rest position
every time it is turned on. A fault code, (2
fl
ash
code; illegal short) will show (see page 13-60).
