Carburetor adjustment

Basic information about original carburetor setting

The original carburetor setting was adapted for an altitude of approx. 500 meters (1600 ft.) above sea level, and the ambient

temperature of approx. 20° C (68° F), mainly for off-road use and central European premium-grade fuel (ROZ 95).

Mixing ratio 2-stroke motor oil:super fuel up to model 2005 1:40, as of model 2006 1:60.

Basic information about change of the carburetor setting

Always start out from the original carburetor setting. Essential requirements are a clean air filter system, air-tight exhaust system

and an intact carburetor. Experience has shown that adjusting the main jet, the idling jet and the jet needle is sufficient and that

changes of other parts of the carburetor will not greatly affect engine performance.

RULE OF THUMB: high altitude or high temperatures choose leaner carburetor adjustment

low altitude or low temperatures choose richer carburetor adjustment

WARNING

–ONLY USE PREMIUM-GRADE GASOLINE ROZ 95 MIXED WITH HIGH-GRADE TWO-STROKE ENGINE OIL. OTHER TYPES OF GASOLINE CAN CAUSE

ENGINE FAILURE, AND USE OF SAME WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY.

–O

NLY USE HIGH-GRADE 2-STROKE ENGINE OIL OF KNOWN BRANDS (I. E. Motorex Cross Power 2T).

–L

ESS OIL OR LOW-GRADE OIL CAN CAUSE EXCESSIVE WEAR OF THE PISTON. USING TOO MUCH OIL, THE ENGINE CAN START SMOKING AND FOUL THE

SPARK PLUG.

–I

N THE CASE OF A LEANER ADJUSTMENT OF THE CARBURETOR PROCEED CAUTIOUSLY. ALWAYS REDUCE THE JET SIZE IN STEPS OF ONE NUMBER TO

AVOID OVERHEATING AND PISTON SEIZURE.

NOTE: If despite a changed adjustment the engine does not run properly, look for mechanical faults and check the ignition

system.

Basic information on carburetor wear

As a result of engine vibrations, throttle valve, jet needle, and needle jet are subjected to increased wear. This wear may cause

carburetor malfunction (e.g., rich mixture). Therefore, these parts should be replaced after 1000 hours of using.

Idling range – A

Operation with closed throttle valve. This range is influenced by the

position of the mixture adjusting screw 1and the idle adjusting screw

2. Only make adjustments when the engine is hot.

To this end, slightly decrease the idling speed of the engine by means

of the idle adjusting screw. Turning it clockwise produces a higher

idling speed and turning the screw counterclockwise produces a lower

idling speed. Create a round and stable engine speed using the mixture

adjusting screw (basic position of the mixture adjusting screw = open

3.5/3 turns). Then adjust to the normal idling speed by means of the

idle adjusting screw.

Opening up – B

Engine behavior when the throttle opens. The idle jet and the shape of

the throttle valve influences this range. If, despite good idling-speed

and part-throttle setting, the engine sputters and smokes when the

throttle is fully opened and develops its full power not smoothly but

suddenly at high engine speeds, the mixture to the carburetor will be

too rich, the fuel level too high or the float needle is leaking.

Part-throttle range – C

Operation with partly open throttle valve. This range is only influenced

by the jet needle (shape and position). The optimum part-throttle

setting is controlled by the idling setting in the lower range and by the

main jet in the upper range. If the engine runs on a four-stroke cycle or

with reduced power when it is accelerated with the throttle partly open,

the jet needle must be lowered by one notch. If then the engine pings,

especially when accelerating under full power at maximum engine revs,

the jet needle should be raised.

If these faults should occur at the lower end of the part throttle range

at a four-stroke running, make the idling range leaner; if the engine

pings, adjust the idling range richer.

Full throttle range – D

Betrieb bei offenem Gasschieber (Vollgas). Dieser Bereich wird durch

Operation with the throttle fully open (flat out). This range is

influenced by the main jet and the jet needle. If the porcelain of the

new spark plug is found to have a very bright or white coating or if the

engine rings, after a short distance of riding flat out, a larger main jet

is required. If the porcelain is dark brown or black with soot the main

jet must be replaced by a smaller one.

2-3E

Clean your motorcycle regularly in order to keep its painted finish looking shiny and new.

The best manner would be to use warm water that has been mixed with a commercially available washing detergent and a

sponge. The hard dirt can be removed before with the help of a soft water jet.

CAUTION

NEVER CLEAN YOUR MOTORCYCLE WITH A HIGH-PRESSURED CLEANER OR A HIGH-PRESSURED WATER JET. OTHERWISE THE WATER MIGHT RUN INTO THE

ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS, CONNECTORS, SHEATHED CABLES, BEARINGS, CARBURETOR ETC. AND CAUSE MAILFUNCTIONS, I.E., LEAD TO THE

PREMATURE DESTRUCTION OF THESE PARTS.

– You should use commercially available detergents to clean the motorcycle. Heavily soiled parts should also be cleaned with

the help of a paint brush.

– Befor cleaning with water, plug the exhaust pipe to prevent water ingress.

– After the motorcycle has been rinsed with a soft water jet, it should be dried by air pressure and a cloth. Then take a short

drive until the engine has reached its operating temperature, and also operate the brakes. The heat also causes the water at

the inaccessible parts of the engine and the brakes to evaporate.

– Slide back the protective covers on the handlebar-mounted instruments so that any water that may have seeped into this part

of the motorcycle is allowed to evaporate.

– After the motorcycle has cooled down, oil and grease all the gliding bearing parts. Also treat the chain with a chain spray.

– To prevent failures in the electric system, you should treat the short circuit button with a contact spray.

CLEANING

If you want to put your motorcycle away for longer periods of time, please observe the following instructions:

– Clean motorcycle thoroughly (see chapter: CLEANING)

– Change engine oil (old engine oil contains aggresive contaminations).

– Check antifreeze and amount of cooling liquid.

– Let the engine warm up again, close fuel tap and wait until the engine dies off by itself. In this way, the carburetor jets are

prevented from becoming resin-clogged by the old fuel.

– Remove spark plug and fill in approx. 5 ccm of engine oil into the cylinder through the opening. Actuate kick-starter 10 times

in order to distribute the oil onto the cylinder walls and mount the spark plug.

– Let fuel flow out of tank into an appropriate basin.

– Correct tire pressure.

– Lubricate bearing points of the control levers, foot rests, etc. as well as the chain.

– The storage place should be dry and not be subject to overly great temperature fluctuations.

– Cover the motorcycle with an air permeable tarpaulin or blanket. Do not use non-air-permeable materials, as possible

humidity might not be able to escape and thereby cause corrosion.

CAUTION

IT WOULD BE VERY BAD TO LET THE ENGINE RUN FOR A SHORT TIME DURING THE STORAGE PERIOD. THE ENGINE WOULD NOT GET WARMED UP

ENOUGH AND THE THUS DEVELOPED STEAM WOULD CONDENSE DURING THE COMBUSTION PROCESS AND CAUSE THE EXHAUST TO RUST.

USE AFTER PERIOD OF STORAGE

– Fill up tank with fresh fuel.

– Check motorcycle as before each start (see driving instructions)

– Take a short, careful test ride first.

STORAGE

Engine housing

Note: Read through the following section before commencing work. Then determine the assembly sequence so that the engine

housing halves only need to be heated up once before replacing the bearings.

Having first removed the dowels, in order to expel the bearings or remove them with light mallet blows, the housing halves must

be placed on a suitably large plane surface, supporting the whole of the sealing surface without damaging it. A wooden panel is

best used as a base.

Bearings or shaft seal rings should not be hammered into their seats. If no suitable press is available, use a suitable mandrel and

hammer them in with great care. Cold bearings will practically drop into their seats at an engine housing temperature of approx.

150° C.

After cooling, should the bearings fail to lock in the bore, they are bound to rotate after warming. In that event the housing must

be replaced.

Check pistons

If continuing to use a used piston, check as follows:

1. Check piston bearing surface for pressure marks, piston seizure (light

friction can be removed with a fine emery stone).

2. The piston ring may not jam in the piston ring groove. To clean the

piston ring groove, use an old piston ring or sanding paper (400

grain size).

3. Piston ring anti-rotation device must fit tightly in the piston and may

not be worn.

4. Check piston ring for wear and gaps in the cylinder.

Measuring the piston ring end gap

– Insert the piston ring in the cylinder and align with the piston

(approx. 10 mm / 0.39 in under the upper edge of the cylinder).

– Measure end gap Bwith a feeler gauge.

End gap: max. 0.20 mm / 0.0078 in

NOTE: If the end gap is larger than specified above, pistons and

cylinder must be checked for wear. If the piston wear and cylinder wear

are within the tolerance zone, the piston ring must be replaced.

Measure the piston and cylinder, determine the piston

– To determine cylinder wear, measure the cylinder 10 mm and 50

mm from the top using a micrometer (shown in the drawing).

– Measure the cylinder diameter in the X and the Y axis to establish

any ovality.

– The piston is measured at the piston skirt, transverse to the piston

pin 32 mm below the top, as shown in the illustration.

– The smallest cylinder diameter minus the largest piston diameter

determines the piston fitting clearance.

Piston fitting clearance AC-engine: 0.055 - 0.065 mm

(0.00216 - 0.00256 in)

LC-engine: 0.045 - 0.055 mm

(0.00177 - 0.00216 in)

NOTE:

When replacing piston and cylinder always make sure to use a piston

and cylinder of the same type. The type identification mark (A to D) can

be found on the cylinder base or the piston head, respectively.

The table to the right indicates the tolerance thresholds for the listed

components.

Always keep in mind that a minimum piston fitting clearance of

0.055 mm (0.00216 in) (AC-engine) or 0.045 mm (0.00117 in)

(LC-engine) is required.

5-7E

Clutch new used

Balancing the clutch wear

– Check clutch shoes for wear; if the lining only shows minor signs of

wear, the linings can be reinstalled.

NOTE:

– the centrifugal clutch has an outer diameter of approx. 82.5 mm

(3.248 in) when new.

– to compensate for minor wear in the lining, one of the preload

washers 6from any set of springs can be inserted between the

clutch hub and clutch shoes - see Fig. B. If only one washer is

installed, this washer can be used.

– the inner diameter of the clutch drum must not exceed 84.4 mm

(3.3228 in) (new condition 84.0 mm [3.3071 in]).

– Make sure the spring sets are kept free of contamination during

maintenance and repair work to the clutch, otherwise they may

malfunction.

Assembly is in the reverse order as disassembly. HH bolts 1must be

secured with Loctite 243 and tightened to 12 Nm (9 ft.lb).

Overhauling the centrifugal clutch

– Loosen HH bolts 1on the clutch shoes 2and remove together with

the set of springs 3from the clutch hub 4.

NOTE: coilsprings 7are used instead of the spring washers for the

AC-engine. Length of clutch springs: min. 19.6 mm (0.748 in).

– Remove HH bolts with sleeves and set of springs from the clutch

shoes.

NOTE:

– the set of springs consists of 14 spring washers 5, make sure the

spring washers are placed exactly in the same order Ashown below

(only LC-engine).

– Washers 6to pretension the spring sets are located between the

spring sets and the clutch shoes. The preload on the spring set has

an influence on the clutch engagement speed. 0.5 mm more preload

increases the clutch speed by approx. 500 rpm.

– the clutch speed is the speed at which the clutch begins to engage

and the motorcycle begins to move.

– check the clutch speed with the tachometer 451.29.075.000 and

adjust if necessary:

AC-engine: 4000 - 4500 rpm

LC-engine: 8500 - 9000 rpm

Resistor values of the ignition system - Stator

– Unplug the ignition stator and measure the resistance of the stator

using a digital measuring tool.

– The resistance must be 500 Ω± 40 Ωat 20º C.

NOTE: it is not neccessary to take the stator out of the engine housing.

Ignition coil

– Undo the spark plug cap

– Measure the resistor of the secundary side of the Ignition coil

between high tension lead and mass of the coil.

– The resistance must be 2250 Ω± 250 Ωat 20º C.

Measuring static ignition values with peak voltage adapter

Measuring conditions:

– cold engine

– seat and tank removed

– all connector and socket connectors and the ground connection in a

non-corroding condition

– kick the kick starter forcefully at least 5 times for each measurement

Check the pulse generator/charging coil for an output signal - one-pin

connector 1:

– Apply the red measuring lead Rof the peak voltage adapter to the

connector and the black measuring lead Sto the ground, disconnect

connector 1from the ignition coil 2
