throotle cable
Re: throotle cable
Hello,
welcome to our forum. First of all I would like you to download some English documents from the download section or from the American Heinkel site http://www.heinkeltourist.com as under TechTips the Workshop manual and the Owner`s Manual for general information.
The required action is not written in there in detail but as I remember you have to remove the rubber from the throttle control and remove the cap by screwdriver. Afterwards you can turn the throttle control and remove the sliding glide by hang out the bowden cable. To get better access you can hang out the bowden cabler at the carburetor end first.
I am sure Heinkel-Bernd will have some photos as well
.
Maybe there is an Heinkel driver in the forum speaking french.
regards
Stephan

Hi Daniel,
welcome to our forum!
As other participants already wrote, you have to unscrew the cap at the end of the handlebar. Everything else you will certainly work out for yourself - after removal of the cap the rest is quite easy.
The trick is to find the hole, where the screw is. This screw holds the cap in place. Here are two photos showing a dismantled throttle and handlebar that should give you the right idea (these are from a 103-A1, but it should be basically the same with an A2):
If you press the rubber grip with your thumb you can feel this hole. If you are (very) lucky (and if the rubber grip is not too old yet) you can roll the grip back, so that you can reach the screw without destroying the rubber grip. But better get used to the idea that you will ruin the grip with this action (old rubber will split 8 times out of 10...) 
But that's no problem - new rubber grips are available from Heinkel Club's Online Shop. Available in gray and black for only 5 €.
It's best to make a view photos while you are dismantling the throttle - this will help you, when you are reassembling it again.
I wish you a successful repair!
Regards,
Bernd

- Throttle (viewed upside down!)
- Handlebar w/o throttle
