4. When the locknuts are moved, throttle pressure is increased or decreased as shown. Adjust the locknuts to the correct position using the following procedure.
(1) STEP 1. Initially install the locknuts fully away from the throttle cam. (Loosen the cable all the way)

(3) STEP 3. Adjust the locknuts in a counterclockwise direction until the throffle pressure decreases to the specification. Tighten the locknuts.

Specified pressure: 88 - 108 kPa (0.9 - 1.1 kg/cm2, 13 - 16 psi)
