11. Remove the circlip, disconnect the lowering cable from the lever on the transmission. Release the cable cover from the suspension.
12. Get both cables from a motor compartment.
13. Installation is carried out in the reverse order. Adjust the cables as follows.
Adjustment
14. The accelerator cable on models with fuel injection does not require any adjustment. However, on carburetor models, the position of the cable housing in the carburetor must be adjusted so that there is no play on the inner throttle cable at the stopper. Install a special bracket in the groove in the rim closest to the suspension.
15. Before adjusting the lowering cable, loosen the two locknuts on the select hanger.
16. Place the lowering lever on the transmission 2mm from the stop using a steel straightedge. Lock the lever in this position.
17. Retract the cable housing in the select hanger to eliminate any play, then tighten the two nuts.
18. Place 90mm spacers under the throttle control, then spread the bezel in the selector hanger to eliminate any play. Install the special bracket in the groove.
19. Check the adjustment by removing the spacer and allowing the throttle lever to touch the stopper. Make sure the transmission lever is 2mm from the stop. Depress the throttle pedal to the wide open throttle position (no kickdown) and check that the throttle is fully open. Now fully depress the pedal and check that the grandmission lever is on the downstop with the spring under tension.
20. On models equipped with speed control, disconnect the clutch rod and, after adjusting the lowering cable, reconnect the clutch rod without tightening it.
21. On models with air conditioning, the A/C switch must not operate at wide open throttle, and must operate in the low position.
