TO ADJUST CARBURETOR
The carburetor has a high speed jet and
has been preset at the factory and adjust-
ment should not be necessary. However,
minor adjustments may be required to
compensate for differences in fuel, tem-
perature, altitude or load. If the carburetor
does need adjustment, proceed as fol-
lows.
IDLE RPM ADJUSTMENT
• To adjust idle RPM, rotate throttle link-
age counterclockwise and hold against
stop while adjusting idle speed adjust-
ing screw to obtain 1750 RPM. Re-
lease throttle linkage.
ACCELERATION TEST
• Move throttle control lever from =SLOW"
to =FAST" position. If engine hesitates
or dies, turn needle valve out (counter-
clockwise) 1/8 tum. Repeat test and
continue to adjust, if necessary, until
engine accelerates smoothly.
High speed stop is factory adjusted. Do
not adjust - damage may result.
IMPORTANT: Never tamper with the en-
gine govemor, which is factory set for
proper engine speed. Overspeeding the
engine above the factory high speed set-
ting can be dangerous. If you think the
engine-governed high speed needs ad-
justing, contact your nearest AUTHO-
RIZED service center/department, which
has proper equipment and experience to
make any necessary adjustments.
