C2)FORWARD CONTROL BELT
Remove the blade control belt following the instructions given in the preceding
paragraph.
- Remove the blade (Fig.1 Ref. G) following the instructions provided in the section
entitled “Blade removal and replacement”.
- Then remove the forward control belt from the lower pulley by turning the belt
anticlockwise (Fig. 8 Ref. A e B)
- To fit the new belt follow the procedure in the reverse order.
- Afterwards check that the belt is positioned and working correctly using the relative
forward control lever. When this lever is lowered and the belt is at maximum tension,
the distance between the belt and the relative belt guides (Fig. 8 Ref. C) should be
approximately 2 mm.
- Then make sure that the belt works properly by tugging lightly on the self-winding
starter cable with the engine switched off and the spark plug wire disconnected. If
everything is working properly the pulley will turn on the engine but will not engage the
belt. If the belt engages push the engine back slightly towards the rear of the machine
(in the direction of the handlebars) until the belt is in the correct position.
D) SERVICE BRAKE CONTROL LEVER
The service brake (Fig. 9 Ref. A) is connected to the forward control lever (Fig. 1 Ref. C).
With the forward control lever released and the brake engaged ensure that there is play
of approximately 2 or 3 mm between the adjustment screw and the brake cable (Fig. 9 Ref
B and C).
WARNING
If there is no such play restore it immediately since the brake will not stop the machine
once the forward control lever is released. Make sure that the front part of the brake in
direct contact with the pulley (Fig. 9 Ref. D) is not worn. If so, replace it.
