ENGINE IDLING SPEED
ADJUSTMENT
1. Start the engine and thoroughly
warm it up.
2. Adjust:
Engine idling speed
Adjustment steps:
Adjust the pilot screw.
Refer to “PILOT SCREW
ADJUSTMENT” section.
Turn the throttle stop screw
1
until the specified engine idling
speed.
NOTE:Using a digital engine tachometer
for idle speed adjustment, detect
the engine idling speed by bring-
ing the sensing element
c of the
engine tachometer close to the
ignition coil
2.
To increase idle speed → Turn
the throttle stop screw 1 in
a.
To decrease idle speed → Turn
the throttle stop screw 1 out
b.
Engine idling speed:
1,900 ~ 2,100 r/min

VALVE CLEARANCE INSPECTION
AND ADJUSTMENT
NOTE:The valve clearance should be
adjusted when the engine is cool to
the touch.
The piston must be at Top Dead
Center (T.D.C.) on compression
stroke to check or adjust the valve
clearance.
1. Remove:
Seat

Refer to “COOLANT
REPLACEMENT” section.REGLAGE DU REGIME DE
RALENTI
1. Mettre le moteur en marche et bien
le chauffer.
2. Régler:
Régime de ralenti du moteur
Etapes de réglage:
Régler la vis de richesse.
Se reporter à la section
“REGLAGE DE LA VIS DE
RICHESSE”.
Tourner la vis de butée de l’accélé-
rateur 1 jusqu’à ce que le moteur
tourne à la vitesse de ralenti spéci-
fiée.
N.B.:
S’équiper d’un tachymètre moteur
numérique pour réglage du régime de
ralenti. Pour détecter le régime du
ralenti approcher le capteur du tachy-
mètre c près de la bobine d’allu-
mage 2.
Pour augmenter la régime de
ralenti → Serrer a la vis de
butée de l’accélérateur 1.
Pour diminuer le régime de ralenti
→ Desserrer b la vis de butée de
l’accélérateur 1.
