2.  Depress  the  clutch  pedol 
(odvisoble 
in

winter)  ond stort 
the
engine by turning  the ignition key to  position

Let  go 
of the key os soon  os the engine fires
ond  releose the occelerotor  pedol 
{if it hos 
been
clepressed).
It  the  engine  ,refuses 
to  fire, return the  key
to the  position  "0" 
ond  rePeot the

Pro-
cedure.  lf the engine  is wormed  up, depress the
occelerotor  pedol 
to obout  one third  of its totol
trovel. lf  the  cold  engine stolls even 
ofter the
second ond  third storting  ottemPt,  enrich the
storting  mixture by  quickly 
depressing  the 
oc-
celerotor  pedol 
once or  twice to holf  of its

3.  Increose the  engine speed corefully  while
releosing  the clutch  pedol. lf the

7.8  STEERING  WHEEL SHAFT AND SHAFT
BEARING
The  steering wheel  (column) shoft is built 
up
of  two  ports 
with the  beoring in the uPPer port.
Usuolly,  it  is  not  necessory to  disconnect the
two  ports 
of the  shoft or to  remove the  beoring
ond steering  lock. lt 
con  be removed  from the
cor os o unit.
Removol 1.  Remove  the steering wheel  - 
see  Chop-
ter 7.7. 2. Remove the  screws on the lower port 
of
the  shoft cowling  ond pull 
the cowling  off.After
removing  two  bolts,  detoch the cluster  switch
on the  shoft from the  upper port 
of  the  shoft
cowling. 3. Remove  two front screws of  the upper 
Port
of  the cowling  ond remove the cowling.
4.  Disconnect  the leods 
from the switches
ond the  switch box.
5.  From  under  the cor,  remove the  bolt of the
coupling  connecting  the steering 
column shoft
to  the steering  box ond detoch the  dust boot
from  the floor. Remove  the 
bolts  of the shoft
beoring  (from 
under  the shoft) 
ond the bolts  of
the steering lock  (from 
the front)  fostening the
shoft to the body,  ond pull 
out the shoft.
Ref itting To ref it the  steering column  shoft 
in the cor,
reverse the  removing procedure. While reinstol-
ling  the steering  wheel (Chopter 
7.7), do  not
forget  to  check  the direction indicotor  switch
for  correct  function.
Use  ploin 
ond spring woshers  under the bolts
of  the  steering lock 
brocket. Reinstoll the  shoft
beoring  using spocing tubes,  rubber bushes, ond
ploin  woshers, ond secure the  bolt of 
the coup-
ling,  connecting the  steering 
column shoft with
the  steering box,  with 
o self-locking  nut (for
tightening  torque, see 
Chopter 1.8).
To Disconnect  Shofts
Remove  the bolt 
of the cross-pin 
ioint con-
nection.
Connecting  of Shofts
Fit  o fostening sleeve on the tube 
with the
shoft,  dip the ring in oil ond  slip 
it on to the shoft end with 
its wedge-shoped  port 
toword
the  beoring,  instoll the  spring 
ond the 
ioint
socket  of 
the  shoft  bottom  port. 
Tighten 
the
connection  with the bolt with  self-locking 
nut
(tightening  torque os per 
Chopter  1.8).
The  sleeve  must be f irst built up if 
the shoft
is refitted for the first time.  Locote 
both holves
of  the  sleeve on  the  tube  ond fosten 
them
lightly  together  by bending the tob of one holf
of ttre sleeve over  the 
other.  The 
sleeve must
on no occount clomp the  tube tightly.
Bottom  Port of Steering 
Column Shoft
The  shoft is  provided 
with  cross-pin 
ioints
ond  connot  be dismontled  (token 
oport). Before
fitting the shoft dust boot,  smeor 
it with 
oil to
focilitote its slipping over  the pcrrts 
of the  joint.
For this  purpose, 
it  is clso  odvisoble to wrop
the  joint 
in o plostic 
foil or to moke o sleeve
with o  pilot 
cone.

lock  both  ports 
in position 
with the  circlip.
Press the shoft into the tube  ond press-in 
the
beoring  (ogoin pocked

8.3  SHOCK ABSORBERS
The  shock obsorbers ore  of 
the  hydroulic,
telescopic, double-octing  type of the PAL 
moke.
The  domping effect  depends on the  speed 
of the
relotive movements  of the oxle ond body.  Doto
required for  testing  ond  odiusting the  shock
obsorbers ore  given 
in the following Tobles.

Removing ond Refitting When removing  or refitting o shock 
obsorber,
retoin  the piston 
rod (upper 
fostening) by hold-
ing  the flottened end of the threod in o  sponner.
In  the  cose  of 
the  reor shock cbsorber, retoin
the  piston 
rod in the bottom  port 
by holding the
heod  of  the  bolt  connecting  it  to  the  shock
obsorber  cylinder.
The  ossembly  of the  rubber bushes of  the
respective  shock obsorber  mounting 
con be seen
in  Fig.8.3/1.
Access  to  the  upper mountings of  'the 
front
shock  obsorbers is  from  the  luggoge boot
(under  the  floor).  The 
threod  is protected 
by
o  cop  nut. The 
mountings  of 
the  reor shock
obsorbers ore occessible from  the reor luggoge
comportment behing the  reor  seot  bockrests ofter folding owoy the upholstery on the wheel

sion  piece 
in the scuttle 
of the reor dosh.
Shock Absorbor  Dismcntling
Dismontling is o routine  procedure 
beginning
with  screwing out the  plug 
(1) 
ofter  the pro-
tective sleeve  (tube) 
hos been removed.  Never
dismontle  the piston 
volves since  there is o risk
of  impoiring the  domping  force 
by mixlng up
the  volves.

Broke 
Shoes  ond Broke  Drums
When  refitting 
o broke shoe  with o portiolly
worn  lining  moke sure thot it  hos  o thickness
sufficient  to  lost till  the  periodic 
inspection
(ofter  every 20,000  kilometres). The  new lining
is 5  mm thick. When  it is  worn down  to  1.5
to  'l 
mm  (4 
to 3.5  mm when meosured 
with the
shoe),  the broke  shoe hos to be reploced 
with
o  new.or 
o reconditioned 
shoe with glued-on
new  lining.  Be sure  to  reploce 
the respective
broke  shoes  in both  wheels  to preserve 
o uni-
form  broking  effect.
Speciol glues  or cements 
ond hordening  ot
high  temperotures 
ore required when relining
the  broke  shoes  so thot  this 
iob con 
be done  in
speciolized  repoir shops 
only. For informotion,
opply  to the  broke  monufocturer  -

nod Nisou.
Broke  drums  are grey 
cost-iron  costings.  Their
unequol  weor 
con be rectified 
by mochining  to
o 231  mm diometer. 
No tool morks  must be left
on  their  surfoce 
which  hos  to be  perfectly
smooth. The  olignment deviotion 
ond mochin-
ing  toleronce  should 
not exceed  0.1 mm. The
moximum permissible  weor is up Lo 232 
mm in
diometer.
Only broke  drums 
with on identicol 
diometer
ore  permitted 
to  be mounted  on  one ond the
some  oxle.
9.2  FRONT BRAKE 
ASSEMBLY
Disnrontling  ond Reossembly
1.  Detoch 
the broke fluid  supply piping 
from
the  broke.  Absolute cleonliness  is o  must.
Otherwise  dirt ond foreign 
motterwill penetrote
into  the piping.
2.  Renrove  bolts lrolding 
down the broke yoke
crnd  lift owoy  rlre broke 
ossembly.
3. Use  the MP 6-132  gouge 
to set  correctly
the broke  (new 
or repoired) 
on reinstollotion.
4.  Select  the shims  required 
to fill  the  gop
between  the end of the gouge 
ond the foce  of
the fostening  lug.To position 
correctly  the
broke,  insert shims 
between  the fostening  lugs
cnd  yokes.  You con, however, 
meosure direct
the  distonce 
between the fostening 
lug ond the
trroke  disk 
ond set  this distonce 
in complionce
with  Fig. 9.211  by odding  pocking 
pieces 
to the
shim  pock.
5.  Using  the respective 
copscrews  ond spring
'.^roshers,  bolt down  the yoke 
to the lugs.
6. Attoch  the  supply  hoses ond bleed 
the
broke.
Replocing  the Brake 
Disk
A  worn brol
grinding  it to o thickness 
of 7.5 mm. lf necess-
cry, reploce  it with  o new  one 9 mm thick. The lowest 
limit of thickness 
of o still usoble
broke disk  is 6.5 mm. The 
moximum  permissible
run-out of the friction surfoce  is 
0.15  mm.
1.  After  hoving  lifted  owoy 
the  broke  os-
sembly, remove  the wheel hub 
ond then the
broke disk. 2.  Reossemble the  broke disk 
with the wheel
hub  using copscrews  with spring 
woshers.
3.  Top 
rrp or  chonge  the lubricont 
in the 
wheel
hub beorings  ond reinstoll the broke ossembly
Replocing  Broke Pods
The  overoll  thickness of  o broke  pod 
with
new  lining is 15  mm. When worn down  to 7 mm
(with  the lining 1.5 mm  thick), the pod 
is
unusoble.
Alwoys  reploce 
broke pods 
on  both  ends of
the oxle  of the some  time so 
thot their weor is
uniform.  With regord  to the coefficient of fric-
tion, they  hove to  be  of the some 
type  ond
rnoke.
1.  Suck  off the hydroulic fluid from  the tonk
so  thot it is only holf  filled.
2.  Remove  cotter pins 
ond lift 
owoy  the broke
lining  cover.
3.  Remove the friction  pod, 
cleon  thoroughly
the  covities  of the yokes, piston 
ports, 
ond dust
boots.
4.  Fit  the  MP 6-134 force-off  lever over the
broke  disc  ond  drive  the pistons 
into the
cylinder  bottoms  by the presswe 
of  levers.
5.  Ploce o  new friction  pod 
into  the broke
ossembly moking  sure thot the clomp of  the
thrust  plote 
fits into  the collor  of  the  piston
foce.
