ADJUSTING THE BRAKES 
 
 

Small incremental brake adjustment : 
Free play at the handlebar lever is 

effected by turning the knurled end on the 
cable adjustor.  This will allow the lever to 
be set at the nominal to ¼ inch of free 
lever movement. 

Basic brake adjusting: 
Screw in the knurled cable adjustor at the 
brake lever so the cable is in it’s most 
slack starting position..  At the caliper, 
loosen the nut, No. 3 and tighten the 
adjustable bolt No. 4, so the wheel cannot 
turn. Back off bolt No. 4 about ¼ to ½ of a 
turn and fix it with lock nut No. 3

.  Do not 

use the cable retainer No. 5 for adjusting 
the brakes! 

BRAKE PADS REPLACEMENT: FIG.7 

At first, screw  in the knurled cable adjustor at the brake lever on the 
handlebars. Unscrew two screws M5-914.003.01 that hold the brake body on 
fork and shift out the brake backwards. Take out from brake body two distance 
columns and two columns with coil. Do not loosen the cable retainer! Unscrew 
screws M6-914.010.01 and separate both halves of brake body and shift the 
worn-out brake plates out. Into the part with operating mechanism slide the 
brake plate with pin bore and unscrew completely the adjusting screw. Force 
on carefully the brake plate into the opposite piece. Before reassembly clean 
the whole brake. Assembly follows in reverse sequence.  
 
 
 
Carburettor: 

After the engine has been run in, sometimes the carburettor has to be adjusted. 
We suggest you have this operation done by a qualified service shop. For 
those who believe they are able to do it themselves, this is the procedure you 
must follow: 
The setting is done with the rear wheel lifted and the engine running. Let the 
engine run at full speed by turning the gas grip and then by turning the 
adjusting screw (Fig. 1 – adjusting screw “E”). Set (tune) the engine to the 
highest possible speed and then turn the gas grip back.    
Set idling speed to between 3000 and 3100 rpm by turning screw “D” – see Fig. 
1. The carburettor is a very fine piece of equipment and must be kept clean.
