Fuel cock
The fuel cock supplies fuel from the
tank to the carburetor while filtering it al-
so.
The fuel cock has two positions:
S (stop)
With the lever in this position, fuel will
not flow. Always return the lever to this
position when the engine is not running.
O (on)
With the lever in this position, fuel flows
to the carburetor. Normal riding is done
with the lever in this position.

EAU13590

Move the lever in direction (a) to turn on
the starter (choke).
