Always Take Care of Kick Starter, ‘Effective Medicine’ for Soak Battery

DAPURPACU – It can be said that almost all automatic scooter models from Honda no longer apply the kick starter feature, relying only on the starter button in the cockpit.

For scooter users who still have a kick starter, it’s a good idea to continue to maintain these components. The existence of this feature is quite helpful when the battery is no longer able to operate the starter button.

PT Daya Adicipta Motora’s Technical Service Sub-Department, Ade Rohman said, maintaining the kick starter is a must so that it is in top condition when used.

“It’s pretty easy to treat. In fact, the same as other components, the kick starter must always be kept clean,” Ade added in an official broadcast, Saturday (20/5).

Ade emphasized that these components must be kept clean and protected from dirt. Even when washing though. According to him, this component must be cleaned frequently if it is often exposed to mud or rainwater.

Even though it is rarely used, the owner must often operate the kick starter, especially before moving. Simply use the center standard, then beat the kick starter without starting the motor beforehand.

Ade appealed to the feature to always have movement and its supporting components to keep working. Then, when carrying out routine servicing, especially in the CVT component section.

“So on the inside of the kick starter device, don’t forget to clean it and have the mechanic check whether there are any problems or not when used,” he said.

Can check when interrupted. Is running normally. If it is constrained such as dragging or being hard when stepped on or vice versa such as slipping and not being able to return, then there are problems with several components in it.

If so, then immediately visit the nearest authorized repair shop or AHASS for service and repair. To maintain and care for all components of the motorcycle in excellent condition. [dp/TH]
