IDLE ADJUSTMENT
Carefully read p. 84 (MAINTENANCE).
If the idle becomes irregular, too fast, or
too slow, it must be adjusted.
To adjust the idle:
Exhaust gases contain carbon monox-
ide, which is extremely poisonous if in-
haled.
Do not start the engine in closed or bad-
ly-ventilated rooms.
Failure to observe this warning may
cause loss of consciousness or even
lead to death by asphyxia.
