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.
FUEL COCK
The fuel cock supplies fuel from the tank to
carburetor and also filters the fuel. The fuel
cock has three 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.
RES:With the lever in this position fuel flows to
the carburetor from the reserve section of
the fuel tank after the main supply of the
fuel has been depleted. Normal riding is
possible with the lever is in this position,
but it is recommended to add fuel as
soon as possible.
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.
