Choke Lever
Pulling the choke lever to the left makes the carbu-
retor provide a richer mixture for easy starting when
the engine is cold.
If starting difficulty or richer fuel mixture occurred,
inspect the choke lever to adjust it if necessary.
Inspection
•
Check if the choke lever returns properly and if the
inner cable slides smoothly. If any irregularity is
suspected, have the choke cable checked by an
authorized Kawasaki dealer.
•
Make sure that the choke lever completely returns
to its released position.
•
To determine the amount of choke cable free play
at the lever, pull the choke lever to the left until re-
sistance is felt; the amount the choke lever moves
is the free play.
•
The proper amount of play is about 3 mm (0.12 in.)
at the choke lever. Adjust the choke cable if there
is too much or too little play.
