SERVICE AND ADJUSTMENTS

NOTE: To seal punctures or prevent flat tires due to slow

leaks, tire sealant may be purchased from your local parts

dealer. Tire sealant also prevents tire dry rot and cor ro sion.

ENGINE

See engine manual.
CARBURETOR
Your carburetor is not adjustable. Engine performance

should not be affected at altitudes up to 7,000 feet (2,134

meters). If your engine does not operate properly due to

suspected carburetor problems, take your snow thrower

to a qualified service center.
ENGINE SPEED
Never tamper with the engine governor, which is factory set

for proper engine speed. Overspeeding the engine above

the factory high speed setting can be dangerous and will

void the warranty. If you think the engine-governed high

speed needs adjusting, contact a qualified service center,

which has proper equipment and experience to make any

necessary ad just ments.
