Dnepr MT10-36 - Electrical System Overview

red length of the draw rod within narrow limits by screwing the end
piece on or off the rod, following which secur ·e the forked end piece
with a check nut.
The b.rake action is checked during riding.
The brake system is considered sound if the braking distance is
within the value specified in section "Specifications".
Never adj'ust the front ibr·ake for the locking (.skidding) of the
front wheel. This can lead to motorcycle overturning.
ELECl RICAL EQUIPMENT
The electrical .equi· pment, whkh consi:sts of electric power sour-
ces and consumer ·s, auxiliary devices and wi·ring, is intended to en-
sure the ignition of gas mixture in the engine cylinders, lighting ,
sound and f.Iash signalli.ng. The motor cycle electrical equipment dia-
gram is presented in Fig. 31.
The power sources include two stonage batteries 3MT6 and a. c.
generato.r f424 with curr · ent-and-voltage regulator PP330.
The consumers of · electrk power include the following: ignition
devi·ces (ignition coil, contact breaker and spar k plugs), lighting and
sLgnalling devices (headlamp, motorcycle and sidecar lamps, turn
indicators, horn) .
The auxiliary devices are as follows: .master switch with ignition
lock; indicato r lamps of storage battery charge and generat or opera-
tion, of oil
emer . gency pressu .re, of gearshift mechanism neu tral posi-
tion, of ' turn indicator, of high and low er beam and turn indicator
switch; turn indiaator interrupter; oil emergency pressure transmit-
ter; stop light switch; dip and turn i.ndi · cato r switch.
The electric circ uit consisting of low-tension wkes is of the sing-
le"wire type, i. e. the consumers are · supplied from power sources
through one wire (conn-ected to the ·positive terminals of a storage
battery and generator), while the frame and other metallic parts of
the motorcycle and of the devices proper ar .e used as the second wire
("earth"). The negative terminals of the storage battery and gene-
rator are connected to "ea • rth".
To monitor the - charging of a storage battery, a · charge control
lamp T111.20E (red light filter) is used. The lamp goes out to indica-
te that the battery is on charge.
The oil pressu re in the engine system is monitored by an emer-
gency oil pressure tnansmitter MM126, emergency pressure is signal-
led by warning lamp ITLL20E (red light filter) on the dashboard.
Pilot lamps ITLL20.U (green ligh t filter) are intended to indicate
the gearshift mechanism neutral posi-tion, the switching on of a high
beam and swi 1 khing on of the turn indi<:ator lamps.
To ensure a safe and convenient riding light signalling is provi-
ded
including lamps <PD246 and YIT223B on the motoncycle, lamps
ITri>232'B · and <PI1219B on the sidecar. Switch il1201 is for switching
on left-hand or right-hand turn indicator lamps whos ·e operation is.
ensured by turn indi· cator lamp interrupter PC427.
