Clutch Adjustment

[Pardee]

Two clutch adjustments are possible, depending on the action of the clutch and clutch lever. If clutch slippage or incomplete clutch disengagement occurs, adjustment is required at the clutch actuating mechanism. Loosen the clutch lever adjuster to obtain as much cable slack as possible. The clutch adjuster is located on the left crankcase cover. The adjuster consists of an adjustment screw and a lock nut. Loosen the lock nut. Turn the adjustment screw in until the screw lightly touches bottom. Back off 1/4 turn and tighten the lock nut. Re-install and tighten the crankcase cover. The second adjustment at the clutch lever controls the amount of cable free play. Loosen the adjustor lock nut and turn the adjustor to obtain 2 ~ 3 mm (1/16" ~ 1/8") cable slack at the lever.
