PRECAUTIONS WHEN CARRYING OUT WORK ON THE CAR
1. Battery :
a) Disconnect the negative terminal first, then the positive one.
b) Ensure the battery is properly connected, with the negative terminal being connected
to earth.
c) Carefully connect both leads to the battery terminals, the negative lead being connected
last.
Before connecting the negative lead ensure that there is no flow of current. This can
be established by briefly touching the negative terminal pith the lead end : sparks
indicate a short circuit which must be corrected first.
d) Before using the starter ensure that the two leads are correctly tightened on their
respective terminals. $ 2. Alt ernator-Regulator :
a) Do not rotate the alternator unless it is connected to the battery.

2
2 b) Before connecting the alternator ensure that the battery is correctly connected
2 (negative terminal to earth ).
c) Do not check the operation of the alternator by short-circuiting either the positive or
the u EXC )) terminals and the earth terminal.
d) Take care not to reverse the leads connected to the regulator.
e) Do not attempt to re-energize the alternator : this is never necessary and in any case
would damage both the alternator and the regulator.
f ) Do not connect a suppressor capacitor at the u EXC )) terminal of the alternator or the
regulator.
g) Do not connect a charging unit to the battery and never carry out arc welding ( or spot
welding) on the car chassis unless both the positive and the negative leads are
disconnected from the battery. 3. Ignition coil :
4. Q.I. Headlamps :
a) Connect the supply lead of the coil to the external ballast resistor terminal and not to
the coil itself.
b) Connect the suppressor with a jump lead to the feed terminal of the coil. Only fit the
suppressor recommended by the factory.
a) Only replace a Q.I. bulb with the headlamps switched off. After having used the head-
lamps, it is wise to let them cool down for five minutes before handling.
b) Do not touch a Q.I. bulb with bare fingers. Any fingerprints on the bulb must be cleaned
off with soapy water and the bulb dried with a lint-free cloth.

Remove the two capsule fixing screws (3
1.
Discollnrci the butterfly operating arm from I
lever (4) by raising rimmed collar at
with its float (6 ) and gasket (7 ).
2. Adjusting the float :
Check that pin (8 ) is properly positioned on
tongue e c N and hook it onto the needle valve.
Hold ccwe~ vertically so thot the tongue e( c P)
of float comes into contact with the needle valve
ball
without pushing it in.
Take the measurement of the float with needle
valve in closed position as shown opposite
( with gasket (7) on cover ).
This measurement must be 7 i 0.25 mm.
If not, adjust tongue e c K until correct value is
obtained.
This measurement must he the same under each
of the floats. If not, correct by adjusting the
connecting bar ss b )I.
3. Fit cover, performing operations in the reverse
sequence.

The stopscrew for 3rd gear can be adjusted SK the vehicle.
Carry this out as follows : Slacken locknut ( 1 ) and stopscrew (2 ). Engage 3rd gear. Bring stop-screw i 2 1 into
contact with the selector shaft. and tighten l/2 a turn, which affords a clearance of a.4 to Cl.7 mm.
Tighten lockfiut ( 1) and disengage gear.
NOTE : Adjusting the stop-screw for 2nd gear
con only be carried out with the gearbox removed
from the vehicle. To adjust it, proceed in exactly I
the same manner as for 3rd gear. Checking and adjusting the contacts :
1.
Remove cover ( 3) from the switch unit controliinq
the electro-valve. 2. Check adjustment of contact gaps :
Proceed in the same way far each of the 4 contacts.
a) Engage a gear.
WARNING In order to obtain correct opening
of a contact, the corresponding gear must be
fully engaged. otherwise the adjustment would
not be correct.
b) Check the contact gap corresponding to the
gear engaged, using a set of feeler gauges : Contact gap :
2nd
and 3rd gears 0.8 to 1.1 mm
1st and Reverse 1.3 ? 0.2 mm
c 1 Adjust the contact by slackening screw ( 5)
on the fixed contact (4 mm Allen key ) and
move this contact along its slot.
Tighten screw ( 5) from 0.35 to 0.4 doNm
( 2 l/2 to 3 ft.Ib ).
IMPORTANT : This adjustment must be carried
out with precision, otherwise, the clutch might
disengage at times without the gear lever
having been touched.
