Governor Sensitivity Adjustment; Governor Spring Location Chart - Kohler Courage SV470-600 Service Manual

Governor Sensitivity Adjustment

Governor sensitivity is adjusted by repositioning the
governor spring in the holes in the governor lever. If
speed surging occurs with a change in load, the
governor is set too sensitive. If a big drop in speed
occurs when a normal load is applied, the governor
should be set for greater sensitivity.
