ENGINE
ENGINE SPEED
Your engine speed has been factory set.
Do not attempt to increase engine speed
or it may result in personal
injury.
If you
believe
that engine
is running
too fast or
too slow, take your mower
to a Sears
or
other qualified
service
center
for repair
and adjustment.
CARBURETOR
Your carburetor
is not adjustable.
If your
engine does not operate
properly
due to sus-
pected carburetor
problems,
take your lawn
mower to a Sears
or other qualified
service
center
for repair and/or
adjustment.
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-governed
high speed
needs
adjusting,
contact
a Sears or other
qualified
service
center,
which has proper
equipment
and experience
to make any
necessary
adjustments.
Immediately

your lawn mower
