ADJUSTING THE CLUTCH
Adjust the clutch and if the engine stops or
tends to advance when the clutch lever is
pulled and the gears are engaged, or if the
clutch slips causing a delay in the acceler-
ation in comparison with the engine speed.
Minor adjustments can be carried out by
means of the adjuster (1):
◆
Withdraw the protection element (2).
◆
Loosen the nut (3) (by screwing it).
◆
Rotate the adjuster (1), until the idle
stroke at the end of the clutch lever is
about 10 mm (see figure).
◆
Tighten the nut (3) (by unscrewing it) and
lock the adjuster (1).
◆
Check the idle stroke at the end of the
clutch lever.
◆
Put back the protection element (2).
If the adjuster (1) is completely screwed or
unscrewed, or if it is not possible to obtain
the correct idle stroke:
◆
Withdraw the protection element (2).
◆
Tighten the nut (3) completely on the ad-
juster (1).
◆
Tighten the adjuster (1) completely.
◆
Unscrew and remove the plug (4) by
means of a cut-headed screwdriver (or a
coin).

tion phase or while the vehicle is running.

correct adjustment or if the
clutch does not function proper-
ly, contact your

tened parts and the sheath must not be
worn out in any point.
◆
Periodically lubricate the clutch cable
with a suitable lubricant, see p. 72 (LU-
BRICANT CHART), in order to avoid its
untimely wear and corrosion.
