Adjusting the throttle cable *
The throttle grip should always provide for a backlash of 3-5 mm (0.12-0.20
in). Besides, with the engine running, the idling speed must not change if
you turn the handlebar all the way to the left or right.
To adjust the throttle cable, push back the protection cover [1], loosen the
counter nut [2] and turn the adjusting screw [3] as required. Turning the adjust-
ing screw counterclockwise will reduce the backlash, turning the adjusting
screw clockwise will increase the backlash.
Tighten the counter nut and check whether the throttle grip can be actuated
smoothly.

Checking the adjustment of the hand decompression cable *
To check, set piston at compression, so that the valves are closed. While doing
this, slowly operate the kickstarter through its stroke until the clicking sound
(disengaging) of the automatic decompression can be heard. Now the decom-
pression lever must be operated 10 mm until resistance is felt (the exhaust
valves begin to open).
To adjust, move back the protective cover [4], loosen the counter nut [5] and
correct the adjustment screw [6] accordingly. Tighten counter nut and push
back protective cover.
The setting of the decompression cable should be checked regulary. If there
is no play in the deko-lever, this can result in engine damage.
NOTE:
No adjustment need be made to the automatic decompressor.
