Riding
The speed is controlled by the throttle lever (8, Fig. 2).
Engaging the first or second gear is done by opening or closing the
throttle. Avoid switching too frequently between first and second
gears. In such situation you should instead reduce the throttle opening
and keep the vehicle in first gear. When descending a slope, shortly
open the throttle from time to time in order to improve lubrication and
headlight operation. The vehicle is shut down by closing the throttle
lever and switching the STOP button to the position off (9a, Fig. 4). Then
close the fuel cock (position A, Fig. 5)!
If the vehicle is to stay out of operation for a longer period (e.g. during
winter), draining of the fuel from the carburetor cup in the following way
is recommended: close the fuel cock and, by opening the throttle lever,
let the engine run out automatically.
Engine Running-in
Do not run the engine at full throttle during the initial 100 km. Later
increase the engine loading progressively.
