Compress the spring and detach the cable end from the choke plunger, noting how it fits. Withdraw the cable from the assembly. If the carburettor is not being disassembled for cleaning, it is advisable to reinstall the choke plunger assembly into the carburettor to avoid losing any of the components.
3. Unscrew the bolt and remove the collar from the hand guard on the left-hand side (see illustration). Counter-hold the screwhead and undo the nut on its bottom (see illustration). Remove the handguard (see illustration).

Installation
6. Install the cable making sure it is correctly routed. The cable must not interfere with any other component and should not be kinked or bent sharply.
7. Lubricate the upper cable nipple with multipurpose grease. Fit the cable end into the lever, then slip the inner cable into the bracket and fit the outer cable end into its socket. Mount the lever on the bracket, making sure the plate and wave washer are fitted, and install the screw. Fit the handguard, then thread the locknut onto the bottom of the screw. Fit the top bolt with its collar.
8. Pass the lower end of each inner cable through its plunger assembly nut and spring, then attach the nipple to the plunger, making sure it is secure. Install each plunger assembly into the carburettor body and tighten its nut securely.
9. Fit the cable in its guide. Check the operation of the choke cable as described in Chapter 1.
