adjuster.

adjuster in to maximum free play.

3. Loosen lower lock nut.
4. Rotate lower adjusting nut until the proper free play has been ac-
complished.
5. Tighten lower lock nut and check adjustment.
6. Start engine, hold in clutch lever and shift into gear. Make sure the
engine does not stall and the motorcycle does not move. Slowly re-
lease the clutch lever and open the throttle, your motorcycle should
accelerate gradually and move smoothly.

ments, contact your local service center.
