THROTTLE CABLE ADJUSTMENT
The throttle cable can be adjusted using the screw set on the
throttle, or using the adjusting screw set on the
carburettor cover. To check for proper adjustment of throttle
cable, proceed as follows:
- remove rubber cap;
- move transmission sheath to and fro to ensure a play of ap-
prox. 1 mm;
- should play be greater than 1 mm, loosen lock nut (1) and
register (2); should play less than 1 mm, then tighten lock
nut and register;

- if register (2) should not provide sufficient movement to
allow for correct adjustment, then adjust register placed on
carburetor.
There should be approx. 1 mm play on latter register; should
this not be the case, then loosen lock nut (3), and loosen or
tighten screw (4), to respectively increase or decrease the
play.
WARNING*: Operation with damaged throt-
tle cable could result in an unsafe riding
condition.
IDLING ADJUSTMENT
Idling should be adjusted only when the engine is hot and throt-
tle is closed, as follows:
- Turn idle speed adjuster screw (1) to reach 1400 ÷ 1500
rpm.
- Air adjuster screw (2) standard calibration: from fully closed
position, loosen screw by 1+1/2 turns.
WARNING*: Exhaust gas contains poisonous
carbon monoxide gas. Never run the engine
in a closed area or in a confined area.
