REMOVAL POINTS
Crankcase
1. Separate:
lCrankcase (right)
lCrankcase (left)
Separation steps:
lRemove the crankcase bolts, hose guide
and clutch cable holder.
NOTE:
Loosen each bolt 1/4 of a turn at a time and
after all the bolts are loosened, remove
them.
lRemove the crankcase (right).
NOTE:
lPlace the crankcase with its left side
downward and split it by inserting a screw-
driver tip into the splitting slit a in the
crankcase.
lLift the crankcase (right) horizontally while
lightly patting the case splitting slit and
engine mounting boss using a soft ham-
mer, and leave the crankshaft and trans-
mission with the crankcase (left).
CAUTION:
Use soft hammer to tap on the case half.
Tap only on reinforced portions of case.
Do not tap on gasket mating surface.
Work slowly and carefully. Make sure the
case halves separate evenly. If one end
“hangs up”, take pressure off the push
screw, realign, and start over. If the
cases do not separate, check for a
remaining case screw or fitting. Do not
force.
lRemove the dowel pins and O-ring.

ENGINE
Carburetor setting
lThe air/fuel mixture will vary depending on
atmospheric conditions. Therefore, it is nec-
essary to take into consideration the air pres-
sure, ambient temperature, humidity, etc.,
when adjusting the carburetor.
lPerform a test run to check for proper engine
performance (e.g., throttle response) and
spark plug(-s) discoloration or fouling. Use
these readings to determine the best possi-
ble carburetor setting.
NOTE:
It is recommended to keep a record of all car-
buretor settings and external conditions (e.g.,
atmospheric conditions, track/surface condi-
tions, lap times) to make future carburetor set-
ting easier.
WARNING
lThe carburetor is a part of the fuel line.
Therefore, be sure to install it in a well-
ventilated area, away from flammable
objects and any sources of fire.
lNever look into the carburetor intake.
Flames may shoot out from the pipe if the
engine backfires while it is being started.
Gasoline may be discharged from the
accelerator pump nozzle when the carbu-
retor has been removed.

TUN
CAUTION:
lThe carburetor is extremely sensitive to
foreign matter (dirt, sand, water, etc.).
During installation, do not allow foreign
matter to get into the carburetor.
lAlways handle the carburetor and its
components carefully. Even slight
scratches, bends or damage to carbure-
tor parts may prevent the carburetor from
functioning correctly. Carefully perform
all servicing with the appropriate tools
and without applying excessive force.
lWhen the engine is stopped or when
riding at no load, do not open and close
the throttle unnecessarily. Otherwise, too
much fuel may be discharged, starting
may become difficult or the engine may
not run well.
lAfter installing the carburetor, check that
the throttle operates correctly and opens
and closes smoothly.
Atmospheric conditions and carburetor
settings
The air density (i.e., concentration of oxygen
in the air) determines the richness or lean-
ness of the air/fuel mixture. Therefore, refer
to the above table for mixture settings.
That is:
lHigher temperature expands the air with its
resultant reduced density.
lHigher humidity reduces the amount of oxy-
gen in the air by so much of the water vapor
in the same air.
lLower atmospheric pressure (at a high alti-
tude) reduces the density of the air.
