fast position. If engine hesitates or
dies, turn idle fuel adjusting needle
out (counterclockwise) 1/8 turn.

necessary, until engine accelerates
smoothly.
High speed stop is factory adjusted, Do
not adjust-damage may result.
IMPORTANT: Never tamper with the
engine governor, which is factory set for
proper engine speed. Overspeeding the
engine above the factory high speed
setting can be dangerous. If you think the
engine-govemed high speed needs
adjusting, contact your nearest autho-
rized service center/department, which
has proper equipment and experience to
make any necessary adjustments.
