screw against the base projection to lock.
E. Ascertain that the governor control arm is adjusted to the proper angle on the control wheel as
shown in Figure 61-6.

control arm will contact the high RPM stop when the propeller lever is 0.010 to 0.030 of an inch from forward
stop on the power quadrant. To adjust the control travel. disconnect the control cable end from the control
arm. loosen the cable end jam nut and rotate the rod end to obtain the desired lever clearance. Reconnect the
cable end and tighten jam nut.

action automatically takes care of the positive high pitch setting.
