To return the Mixture Control Valve to its original position, first
screw in the Mixture Control Valve, while looking into the rotor
hole. Then gradually unscrew the Mixture Control Valve until 'A'
is precisely tangential to the rotor hole (i.e. so that 'A' and 'B' are
superimposed) as in the main sketch.

CARBURETTOR CLEANLINESS

The correct functioning of the carburettor depends on its small fuel
orifices remaining clear. The minute particles of foreign matter that
are present in any fuel can easily partially obstruct these orifices and
upset mixture strength so that engine performance becomes erratic
and unreliable.

It is recommended that fuel is passed through a filter when the tank

is filled and that a good in-line filter is installed between the fuel

tank and carburettor and, furthermore, that this filter is frequently
cleaned to remove dirt and lint that accumulates on the filter screen.

Finally, occasionally remove the needle-valve holder from the

carburettor as shown in Photo (2) and extract any remaining foreign
matter that may have lodged in the location shown in Photo (3).

Remove this with

an 8mm spanner
