clockwise and remove it.
FILL LEVEL
Having removed the cap, if the coolant level is
visible and fully covers the plates, then it is in the
condition of "fill level". If this level has not been
reached, the coolant must be topped up.
Take great care when adding the liquid not to ex-
ceed the "fill level", otherwise there could be over-
flow when the vehicle is running, which could af-
fect operation.
If there is a high consumption of coolant, check for
leaks from the radiator or the pipe couplings. Con-
sult a FANTIC MOTOR Dealer for repairs.

CARBURETTOR/THROTTLE
CONTROL
IDLING
For the maintenance intervals, see (PERIODIC
MAINTENANCE CHARTS), under:
- idling.
To check the idling speed the vehicle engine must
be at normal running temperature. If the check is
made with a cool engine the calibration will be out
of tune.
CHECK
- Run a few kilometres until normal operating tem-
perature is reached, then stop the vehicle. - Place it
on the stand. Take care not to touch the hot engine
parts with bare skin, as there is the risk of burns.
Work from the left side of the vehicle. The engine
idling speed must be approx.: 1500 ± 100 rpm.
If the engine tends to cut out, without using the
throttle control, this means that the idling speed
must be adjusted using the screw located on the
carburettor.
ADJUSTMENT
- Adjust the screw (1) located on the carburettor
(left side).
- TIGHTENING (clockwise), the revs increase.
- LOOSENING (counter-clockwise), the revs de-
crease.
To check correct operation and if the idling speed
remains stable, twist the accelerator handle to ac-
celerate and throttle down a few times.
NOTE: do not adjust the air adjusting screw to
avoid altering the mixture settings.
If necessary, consult a Dealer.
