7.2.4 Adjusting the Bowden wires
In the working setting it should be possible to
push the clutch lever up to the push bar without
this requiring much eff ort. If the Bowden wire is
too taut for this, it must be extended. To do this,
undo the lock nut opposite the main cable, extend
the screw connector and then tighten the lock nut
again (see Fig. 6b/Item G). If the star-type hoes
no longer rotate, the screw connector will have to
be shortened (as described above).
