Throttle cable adjustment
The throttle cable must always be installed without tension, i.e. with some allowance.
Have your assistant fully depress the gas pedal.
Pull out the bracket on the mounting bracket.
Bring the throttle to the full throttle position by pulling on the cable sheath.
Insert the locking clip into the appropriate notch into the groove segment on the end of the throttle cable sheath.

If the accelerator pedal travel is insufficient, it must be adjusted accordingly using the screw at the top of the accelerator pedal.
