Main Points for Riding
Start the Engine
Check if the throttle switch is set to ON position. Insert the ignition key
into the switch and turn clockwise to ON. If the transmission system is
currently in neutral mode, the neutral indicator should be lit.
CAUTION
When starting the engine, the gearshift should be in neutral mode
and the clutch switched on , and the rider sits on the correct position.
Start the Engine as It is in Cold
1. The ignition switch is set to OFF position;
2. Use the choke system.
3. Step on the starting rod two or three times.
4. Quickly turn the ignition switch to ON. Step on the starting lever to
start the engine.
Press the choke lever fully down. The throttle valve is closed. Press the
starter button to start the engine. As soon as the engine is started, pull the lever
up by half and let the engine warm up sufficiently. Then release the lever. The
cooler the weather becomes, the longer the time requires warming up.
Start the Engine as It is Warm
1. The ignition switch is set to ON position.
2. Turn the throttle grip by 1/8 to 1/4 cycle.
3. Step on the starting lever to start the engine, or push the electric
starter button down. When starting the engine as it is warm, the
choke system is unnecessary.
WARNING
Never start the engine in an enclosed area with bad ventilation
conditions. The component of the tail gas is radically toxic. Never keep
the motorcycle running a short while without monitoring.
CAUTION
Never let the engine running for prolonged time in stationary
condition. Otherwise the engine may get overheated and the engine
assemblies may be damaged.
Set Out
While gripping the clutch lever and then waiting a moment, press the
gear lever to engage the bottom gear. Twist the throttle grip counterclockwise
and release the clutch lever slowly and gradually. When the clutch is engaged,
the motorcycle will set out.
To shift to a higher gear, first slow down gradually, then release the
throttle and grip the clutch lever. Move the lever to the next higher gear and
release the clutch lever. Then twist the throttle grip slightly. Repeat this
procedure and you will be able to shift to the top gear.
