UNSCHEDULED MAINTENANCE
5.1 ADJUSTMENT OF IDLING SPEED
•
Carburettor adjustment must be carried out whenever the en-
gine idling speed is irregular.
•
For a proper check start the engine and let it warm up until it
reaches its standard operating temperature then let it run idle
and check the rpm.
•
Open and close the twist grip throttle control to check if the
idling speed is steady.
•
For further adjustments, please contact an Authorised Malaguti
Service Centre.
5.2 THROTTLE CLEARANCE ADJUSTMENT
•
Check that the twist grip throttle control idle stroke is 1-3mm
(measured on the twist grip throttle control end). Any adjust-
ments must be carried out by an Authorised Malaguti Service
Centre.
5.3 BRAKE LEVER ADJUSTMENT
•
Maintenance of brake levers is limited to a check on the brake
fluid level (see section 4.4 – page 38).
•
A spongy feeling in the brack lever can indicate the presence of
air in the hydraulic circuit. If there is air in the circuit, have an
Authorised Malaguti Service Centre check and bleed the sys-
tem.

5.4 BRAKE (FRONT/REAR) PADS AND ROTORS CHECK
·
·
·
·
(checking for wear)
We recommend that you have the front/rear pads and rotors
checked by an Authorised Malaguti Service Centre every 2,000
km.
The minimum thickness of the brake lining shall not be less
than 2 mm (Fig. 33). To check thickness of brake pads, see fig.
33A and 33B.
If the thickness of the pads is close to the lowest permitted
limit or if the pads are damaged, have them replaced immedi-
ately.
It is absolutely necessary to replace the rotors and the worn
pads as soon as possible. Entrust this operation to an Au-
thorised Malaguti Service Centre.
