MAINTENANCE

SADDLE ADJUSTMENT

Saddle adjustment is provided at both front and rear ends. Importance is attached to

the desirability of owners selecting the adjustment most to their liking. At the front

end, the adjustment consists of three evenly spaced positions for the hinge bolt, accessible

only upon removal of the petrol tank. At the rear end, adjustment is obtained by

altering the position of the lower spring fixing nuts upon the screwed studs to which

the springs are attached.

PERIODICAL MAINTENANCE

Regular maintenance, attention to lubrication, and certain adjustments must be made to

ensure unfailing reliability and satisfactory service. This necessary attention is detailed

below, and owners are strongly recommended to follow carefully these suggestions,

and to make a regular practice of doing so from the first.

The reference numbers, in brackets, refer to the locations specified on the Lubrication

Chart, Illustration 7.
