Check Cable Adjustment
With the clutch lever disengaged, pull starter rope
slowly several times. The tines should not turn. If
they turn, the cable is not adjusted properly.
To adjust the cable, loosen the nut near the top of
the cable and unscrew the cable to provide
additional slack in wire. See Figure 3.
Tighten the nut and check again for proper
adjustment.
