TO
ADJUST
THROTTLE
CONTROL
CABLE
(See Fig. 31)
The throttle control has been preset at the factory and
adjustment should not be necessary. Check adjustment as
described below before loosening cable. If adjustment is
necessary, proceed as follows:
With engine not running, move throttlecontrollever from
slow to choke position.Slowly move lever from choke to
fast position.
Check to see if hole in throttle lever and hole in speed
control bracket are aligned.
If holes are not aligned, loosen cable clamp screw and
align the holes by inserting a pencil or a 1/4" drill bit
through both holes.
Pull throttle cable up to remove slack and tighten cable
clamp screw. Remove alignment pencil or drill bit.
TO ADJUST
CARBURETOR
(See Fig. 32)
The carburetor has been preset at the factory and adjust-
ment should not be necessary. However, minor adjustment
may be required to compensate for differences in fuel,
temperature, altitude or load. If the carburetor does need
adjustment, proceed as follows:
In general, turning the adjusting needles in (clockwise)
decreases the supply of fuel to the engine giving a leaner
fuel/air mixture. Turningthe adjusting needles out (counter-
clockwise) increases the supply of fuel to the engine giving
a richer fuel/air mixture.
IMPORTANT:
DAMAGE
TO THE NEEDLES
AND THE
SEATS
IN CARBURETOR
MAY RESULT
IF NEEDLE
IS
TURNED
IN TOO TIGHT.
NOTE: The carburetor on this engine is low emission. It is
equippedwith anidle fuetadjusting needlewith a limiter cap, 23
which allows some adjustment within the limits allowed by
the cap. Do not attempt to remove the limiter cap. The limiter
cap cannot be removed without breaking the adjusting
needle.
Be sure you have a clean airfilter and the throttle control
cable is adjusted properly (see above).
Start engine and allow to warm for five minutes. Make
adjustments with engine runningand shift/motion control
lever in neutral (N) position.
Idle speed setting - With throttle control lever in slow
position, engine should idle at 1750 RPM. If engine idles
too slow orfast, turn idle speed adjusting screw in or out
until correct idle is attained.
Idle fuel needle setting -With throttle control lever in slow
position, turn idle fuel adjustment needle in (clockwise)
until engine begins to die and then turn out (counter-
clockwise) u ntil engine runs rough. Turn needle to a point
midway between those two positions.
Recheck idle speed. Readjust if necessary.
ACCELERATION
TEST-
Move throttle
control
lever from slow to fast position. If
engine hesitates
or dies, turn idle fuel adjusting
needle
out (counterclockwise)
1/8 turn. Repeat test and con-
tinue to adjust,
if necessary,
until engine
accelerates
smoothly.
High speed stop is factory adjusted.
Do not adjust-
damage
may result.
