Adjusting the Clutch

The Clutch cable seldom requires adjusting, and if the clutch tends to slip, first screw out the clutch spring carrier KC4 behind the small gear box sprocket in an anti-clockwise direction. If the correct adjustment has been lost, slack off the cable completely and then screw in the spring carrier clockwise until the clutch can just be felt to slip when pressing down the Kickstarter. Now re-adjust the cable until there is no free movement in the outer casing. Do not force the adjustment Finally screw out the spring carrier until there is not less than a quarter of an inch free movement in the cable at the handlebar end.
