Oil method
I. Disconnect the
cable
from the clutch and the
th
rottle grip assembly.
2.
Make a cone
of
stiff paper and tape it to the
end
of
the
cable
sheath (
Figure
37
).
3.
Hold the cable upright and pour a small amount
of
thin oil (SAE
IOW
-30) into the cone. Work the
cab
le
in
and out
of
the sheath
fo
r several minutes
to help the oil work its
way
down to the end
of
the
cable.
The control cables
sho
uld be lubricated at the
interval listed
in
Table 2. They should also
be
inspected at
th
is time for fraying and the cable
sheath checked for chafing. The cables are
@
relatively inexpensive and should be replaced when
found to be
faulty.
The
con
trol cables can
be
lubricated either with
oil
or
any popular
cable
lubri
ca
nts and a
cable
lubricator. The first method requires more time and
the
co
mplete lubrication
of
the entire
cab
le is less
certain.
On
the
throttle cable
it
is necessary to remove
th
e screws securing
th
e right-hand switch assembly
together
co
gain access
to
the Ihrallie cable end.
