Reduction gear
The helical gear runs in oil bath (40cc of SAE 140oil).
The gear ratio is 4:1.
You can check the oil level by unscrewing the screw
that plugs the oil level hole (see Figure 7). Pay at-
tention not to damage the gasket. When you per-
form this operation, the engine or the reduction
unit must be placed on a horizontal and at sur-
face. The oil level is ne when it reaches the hole.
If the level is low, you must remove the oil cap and rell it with some new oil (see Figure 6).
To perform a total oil change, you must drain the old oil through the oil drain hole (see Figure 8). When the reduction
gear is completely empty, you can plug the oil drain hole with the screw. You must rell the gear through the oil cap
using a syringe with 40cc of SAE 140 oil. After this operation, you must check the oil level.
Ignition timing
The engine has a breakerless type ignition system. This kind of ignition is electronically controlled and provides the
power (volts) needed to spark the spark plugs from only 200 rpm and it is a variable timing unit.
To set the ignition timing, you can use a dial gauge to nd the top dead center (TDC), (see pictures on the left of
Figure 9). Remove the spark plug and screw down the comparator.
