Replacing the Throttle Cable
WHEN PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE, YOU MUST FIRST SHUT OFF THE ENGINE, SET THE
PARKING BRAKE, WAIT FIVE (5) MINUTES TO ALLOW PARTS TO COOL AND DISCONNECT THE SPARK
PLUG WIRE, KEEPING IT AWAY FROM THE SPARK PLUG.
NOTE: The Throttle Cable is set at the
factory, and generally, no service is
required. However, when replacing
the Throttle Cable it is important to
follow these steps.
Tools Needed:
•
5/16" Wrench or Socket
•
Phillips Screwdriver
1. Loosen the Screw on the Throttle
Cable Clamp (Bowden clamp) with the
Wrench or Socket so the Throttle
Cable can slide below it. It is not
necessary to remove the Clamp
(Figure 24).
2. Remove the Operator Presence Lever
from the left Handlebar using a
Phillips Screwdriver (Figure 25).
ADJUSTING THE THROTTLE IS A DELICATE PROCEDURE. THERE IS ONLY A FEW RPM DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN THE ENGINE’S IDLE SPEED AND ENGAGEMENT OF THE CENTRIFUGAL CLUTCH.
