Craftsman 917.270660 - Manual (Page 28)

ACCELEFWION TEST
• Move throttle control lever from slow to
fast position. If engine hesitates or dies,
turn idle mixture valve out (counter­
clockwise) 1/8 turn. Repeat test and
continue to adjust, if necessary, until en­
gine accelerates smoothly.
High speed stop is factory adjusted. Do
not adjust - 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 en­
gine-governed high speed needs adjust­
ing, contact your nearest authorized ser­
vice center/department, which has proper
equipment and experience to make any
necessary adjustments.
