ENGINE
Maintenance, repair, or replacement of the
emission control devices and systems,
which are being done at the customers
expense, may be performed by any non­
road engine repair establishment or indi­
vidual. Warranty repairs must be per­
formed by an authorized engine manufac­
turer's service outlet.
TO ADJUST CARBURETOR
The carburetor has a high speed jet and
has been preset at the factory and adjust­
ment should not be necessary. However,
minor adjustments may be required to
compensate for differences in fuel, temper­
ature, altitude or load. If the carburetor
does need adjustment, proceed as follows.
FINAL SETTING
• Start engine and allow to warm for five
minutes.
• With throttle control lever in “SLOW”
position.
IDLE RPM ADJUSTMENT
• To adjust idle RPM, rotate throttle link­
age counterclockwise and hoid against
stop while adjusting idle speed adjusting
screw to obtain 1750 RPM. Release
throttle linkage.
High speed slop is factory adjusted. Do
not adjust or damage may result.
IMPORTANT: Never tamper with the en­
gine governor, which is factory set for
proper engine speed, overspeeding the
engine above the factory high speed set­
ting can be dangerous. If you think the
engine-governed high speed needs adjust­
ing, contact your nearest authorized ser­
vice center/department, which has the
proper equipment and experience to make
any necessary adjustments.
