speed variation is 2--3 Hz or 50--90 rpm for
fast idle speed.
Mechanical Governor Adjustment Procedure
1. Disconnect the speed control from the fuel injection
pump lever and start the engine.
2. Verify that the injector pump lever holds in the fast
idle position against the fast idle adjusting screw.
See Figure 7-23.
3. Using a frequency meter, check the engine speed.
Adjust the engine speed at full load to 1800 rpm
(60 Hz) or 1500 rpm (50 Hz). To increase the
engine speed, turn the fast idle adjusting screw
counterclockwise; turn the fast idle adjusting screw
clockwise to decrease engine speed.
4. Reconnect the speed control to the fuel injection
pump lever.
5. Stop the generator set.

magnetic pickup, an electronic control unit, and an
load
actuator. The magnetic pickup monitors engine speed
and transmits this information to the electronic control
unit (see Figure 7-24 or Figure 7-25). The electronic
control unit interprets the signal from the magnetic
pickup to control current input to the throttle actuator.
The throttle actuator adjusts the throttle position on the
engine. See Figure 7-26.
