FUEL COCK
The fuel cock supplies fuel from the tank to
carburetor while filtering the fuel. The fuel cock
has the three positions:
OFF: With the lever in this position, fuel will
not flow. Always return the lever to this
position when the engine is not running.
ON: With the lever in this position, fuel flows
to the carburetor. Normal riding is done
with the lever in this position.
RES: This indicates reserve. If you run out of
fuel while riding, move the lever to this
position. FILL THE TANK AT THE
FIRST OPPORTUNITY. BE SURE TO
SET THE LEVER TO “ON” AFTER
REFUELING.
STARTER LEVER (CHOKE)
When cold, the engine requires a richer air/fuel
mixture for starting. A separate starter circuit,
which is controlled by the starter lever 1, sup-
plies this mixture.
Pull the lever out to open the circuit (for start-
ing) and push the lever in to close the circuit.
