Battery charging condition can be checked by measuring battery terminal voltage with a digital voltmeter [A].
NOTICE
Be sure to disconnect the negative (–) cable first.
NOTE
Measure with a digital voltmeter which can be read one decimal place voltage.
If the reading is 12.8 V or more, refresh charge is not required, however, if the read is below the 12.8 V, refresh charge is required.
Battery Terminal Voltage Standard: 12.8 V or more
Terminal Voltage (V) [A] Battery Charge Rate (%) [B] Good [C] Refresh charge is required [D]

Torque Limiter Cover (see Torque limiter Removal)
Turn the torque limiter [A] by hand. The torque limiter
should turn forward freely [B], but should not turn backward.
If the starter clutch does not operate as it should or if it
makes noise, go to the next step.

Tachometer
The tachometer shows the engine
speed in revolutions per minute (r/min,
rpm).
On the right side of the tachometer
face is a portion called the “red zone”.
Engine r/min (rpm) in the red zone is
above maximum recommended engine
speed and is also above the range for
good performance.
