Clutch Lever Freeplay:
To ensure durability of the clutch, proper
lever freeplay is important. Freeplay
is needed to ensure the clutch is not
engaged when not needed. Premature
clutch wear can take place if the clutch
lever has no freeplay. To inspect
freeplay, pull in the clutch lever. There
should be a certain amount of freeplay
before the clutch engages.
Clutch Freeplay should be: .0625 - .25
inches ( 2 - 6mm)
Adjusting Freeplay
1. Pull back dust cover (1)
2. Loosen the adjuster lock nut (2).
3. Turn the adjuster nut (3) clockwise to
add freeplay. Turn adjuster nut counter
clockwise to reduce freeplay.
