TO ADJUST CARBURETOR

The carburetor has been preset at the
factory and adjustment should not be

necessary. However, engine perfor
mance can be affected by differences in

fuel, temperature, attitude or load. If the
carburetor does need adjustment, contact
your nearest authorized service center/
department

IMPORTANT:

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. If you think the
engine-governed high speed needs
adjusting, contact your nearest sears or
other qualified service center which has
the proper equipment and experience to
make any necessary adjustments.
