CONTROL CABLE ADJUSTMENT
The control cables are adjusted by screw adjustments at the cable ends.
With the control levers released:
•
for the clutch a play at the clutch lever end should be equal to 5 - 8 mm/0.2 - 0.3 in.
•
The rear brake pedal equal to about 25 - 30 mm/1- 1.2 in. of the full stroke of the pedal is required
•
for the carburetors - carburetor throttle cables synchronized
With the control levers (handles) fully depressed:
•
for the clutch — complete disengagement of the engine from the transmission; noiseless shifting
of gears means correct adjustment of the clutch cable.
•
for the carburetors — lift of throttles to maximum and equal height
