CONTROL FUNCTIONS
EC156000
FRONT BRAKE LEVER
The front brake lever
1
is located on the right
handlebar. Pull it toward the handlebar to acti-
vate the front brake.
EC157000
REAR BRAKE PEDAL
The rear brake pedal
1
is located on the right
side of the machine. Press down on the brake
pedal to activate the rear brake.
EC158001
FUEL COCK
The fuel cock supplies fuel from the tank to
carburetor while filtering the fuel. The fuel cock
has the two positions:
OFF:With the lever in this position, fuel will not
flow. Always return the lever to this posi-
tion 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.
COLD STARTER KNOB
When cold, the engine requires a richer air-fuel
mixture for starting. A separate starter circuit,
which is controlled by the cold starter knob
1
,
supplies this mixture. Pull the cold starter knob
out to open the circuit for starting. When the
engine has warmed up, push it in to close the
circuit.
HOT STARTER LEVER
The hot starter lever
1
is used when starting a
warm engine.
Use the hot starter lever when starting the
engine again immediately after it was stopped
(the engine is still warm). Pulling the hot starter
lever injects secondary air to thin the air-fuel
mixture temporarily, allowing the engine to be
started more easily.

NETTOYAGE DU FILTRE A AIR
N.B.:
Un entretien convenable du filtre à air est
la clé pour éviter l’usure prématurée et
l’endommagement du moteur.
ATTENTION:
Ne jamais faire tourner le moteur lors-
que l’élément du filtre à air n’est pas
en place; ceci permettrait la pénétra-
tion de poussière dans le moteur et
causerait son usure rapide et son
endommagement.

PULIZIA FILTRO DELL’ARIA
NOTA:
Una corretta manutenzione del filtro
dell’aria è il metodo migliore per evitare
un’usura prematura del motore e i danni
conseguenti.
ATTENZIONE:
Non mettere mai in funzione il motore
senza l’elemento filtrante, altrimenti
sporco e polvere penetrerebbero nel
motore causando la rapida usura e
probabili danni al motore.
