Fuel cock
The fuel cock supplies fuel from the
tank to the carburetor while filtering it
also.
The fuel cock has three positions:OFF

Adjusting the carburetor
The carburetor is an important part of
the engine and requires very sophisti-
cated adjustment. Therefore, most
carburetor adjustments should be left
to a Yamaha dealer, who has the
necessary professional knowledge
and experience. The adjustment des-
cribed in the following section, howe-
ver, may be serviced by the owner as
part of routine maintenance.
ECA10550
CAUTION
The carburetor has been set and
extensively tested at the Yamaha
factory. Changing these settings
without sufficient technical know-
ledge may result in poor perfor-
mance of or damage to the engine.
