6. There are two other wires connected to where the points plugged
into. These wires go to the condensers mounted in front of the
battery. Unplug both wires and tuck out of the way. The
condensers are not required with this ignition system and should
not be connected.
7. Remove the complete automatic advance assembly from the
engine. The points housing is now empty. See fig.2, page 9.
8. Take the steel timing disc (round steel plate with four slots), note
that it has a small slot in the rear side. See fig. 3. Slide the timing
disc over the camshaft (rear slotted side first), turning and gently
pushing in until the slot aligns with the locating peg. Note: the
position of the four slots may be different to that shown, as this
depends upon the engine position (and hence the locating peg)
when the timing disc is fitted. Take the steel spacer tube and slide
over the camshaft. Gently tap the top of the spacer tube with a soft
mallet to ensure that the timing disc is fully seated. Fit the M6
fixing bolt & washer and tighten. See fig. 4, page 9.
9. Fit the ignition trigger assembly into the points housing. Refit the
M6 fixings & washers removed in step 5, earlier. Finger tighten
only so that the trigger can be rotated to set the ignition timing.
See figs. 5/6, page 12.
10. Open the top and side compartments.
11. Locate the two ignition coils and ballast resistor that are directly in
front of the air cleaner intake. On some models it may be easier to
remove the air cleaner to gain access to the ignition coils.
12. Disconnect the wires from the original ignition coils. Remove the
ignition coils, h.t. leads & plug caps.
13. Fit the ignition module in a convenient place. This could be under
(or on the side of) the battery platform, inside the toolbox (if
available) or secured to the frame using a suitable mounting
bracket. The unit can be orientated in any position, but this should
be onto a flat surface, if possible. the module can be secured by
the mounting flanges using the two M5 bolts, washers & nuts.
Alternatively, the mounting flanges can be removed by slackening
the bracket securing screws and sliding the brackets out of the
dovetail slots. The module can then be mounted using large tie-
straps, with a small sheet of rubber between the case & the frame.
The module casing acts as a shield for the internal electronics,
therefore it is recommended that the case is connected to the
