ENGINE SPEED
Your engine speed has been factory 
set. Do not attempt to increase engine 
speed or it may result in personal injury. 
If you believe that the engine is running 
too fast or too slow, take your unit to a 
qualifi ed service center for repair and/or 
ad just ment.
CARBURETOR
Your carburetor has a nonadjustable 
fi xed main jet for mixture control. If your 
engine does not operate properly due to 
sus pect ed carburetor problems, take your 
unit to a qualifi ed service center for repair 
and/or adjustment.
IMPORTANT: Never tamper with the 
engine governor, which is factory set for 
proper engine speed. Over speed ing 
the engine above the factory high speed 
setting can be dangerous. If you think 
the engine-governed high speed needs 
adjusting, take your unit to a qualifi ed 
service center, which has proper 
equip ment and experience to make any 
nec es sary adjustments.
