Verifications when the motor is on
Just after starting the motor, you should make sure that :
-
after 5/10 seconds, water runs out from the cooling-
water pilot-holes. The indicator at the entrance of
the circuit, provides only for the proper operation of
the pump and not for the circulation of water in the
head and in the cylinder . That means that possible
shortages will not be indicated.
If water does not flow from the pilot-holes check to
see if the water-inlets are blocked.
Picture No. 51 ;
- that you do not hear any strange noise;
- that the throttle-grip operates in a proper way;
- that the gear shift lever operates properly and that
with the reverse gear selected the motor does not
rise;
- that the engine stop switch operates properly;
