carburetor.
The fuel cock has three positions.

flow. Always turn 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.

while riding, turn the lever to this position.
THEN FILL THE FUEL TANK AT THE

turn the fuel cock lever to the “ON” position.
