OPERATION and ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES

 

Cruise-Mate and Cruise-Mate II are intended for motorcycle warm up and service only. Under no condition do we recommend removing your hands from the handlebar while the motorcycle is moving.

Once installed, CRUISE-MATE is extremely reliable and easy to operate. Simply push lever forward (towards front of bike) and set your throttle where you want it. Push lever all the way toward rear of bike and throttle returns to normal operation.

SETTING TENSION of “CRUISE-MATE”:

With time and use, the original friction shoe, inside the switch housing, may wear. Not to worry, CRUISE-MATE is infinitely adjustable. You can easily adjust for proper tension in a few seconds.

CAUTION; PERFORM ALL ADJUSTMENTS WITH ENGINE OFF. ADJUSTING CRUISE-MATE WITH ENGINE RUNNING COULD CAUSE SERIOUS DAMAGE TO ENGINE.

CAUTION; OVER TIGHTENING CRUISE-MATE COULD CAUSE THROTTLE NOT TO RETURN TO THE CLOSED POSITION WHEN RELEASED AND RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.

 ADJUSTING CRUISE-MATE

 Throttle doesn’t return to idle position when CRUISE-MATE lever is released (pointing toward rear of bike).

1.Push CRUISE-MATE lever toward rear of bike.
2.Pull down on CRUISE-MATE lever and rotate lever one tooth toward front of bike (clockwise direction looking at CRUISE-MATE from below).
3.Re-test Cruise-Mate operation as described above.
4.Repeat steps 1 thru 3 until Cruise-Mate releases control of throttle when lever is moved toward rear of bike.

 Throttle doesn’t hold in position when CRUISE-MATE is pointed toward front of bike.

1. Push CRUISE-MATE lever towards front of bike.
2. Pull down on CRUISE-MATE lever and rotate lever one tooth toward rear of bike (counter clockwise direction looking at CRUISE-MATE from below).
3. Re-test Cruise-Mate operation as described above.
 4.  Repeat steps 1 thru 3 until CRUISE-MATE holds throttle at desired position.

WARNING; IF YOUR BIKE HAS A CARBURETOR (NOT FUEL INJECTION) YOU MAY FLOOD ENGINE DURING ADJUSTING PROCEDURES. SIMPLY ALLOW THE BIKE TO STAND FOR 15 MINUTES OR SO AND THEN TRY STARTING ENGINE.

 

CAUTION; AFTER MAKING ADJUSTMENTS TO CRUISE-MATE BE SURE TO TURN THROTTLE TO FULL OPEN POSITION WITH ENGINE AND CRUISE-MATE OFF (POINTED TOWARD REAR OF MOTORCYCLE) TO ENSURE THROTTLE MOVES FREELY THROUGH IT’S ENTIRE RANGE.
