Carburetor Adjustment; Idle Speed Adjustment - Yamaha BADGER YFM80N Owner's Manual

Carburetor adjustment

The carburetor is a vital part of the engine and
requires very sophisticated adjustment. Most
adjusting should be left to a Yamaha dealer who
has the professional knowledge and experience
to do so. However, the idling speed may be per-
formed by the owner as a part of the usual main-
tenance routine.
cC
The carburetor was set at the Yamaha facto-
ry after many tests. If the settings are dis-
turbed by someone without sufficient techni-
cal knowledge, poor engine performance and
damage may result.

Idle speed adjustment

NOTE:
A diagnostic tachometer must be used for this
procedure.
1. Start the engine and warm it up for a few
minutes at approximately 1,000 to 2,000
r/min. Occasionally rev the engine to 4,000
to 5,000 r/min. The engine is warm when it
quickly responds to the throttle.
2. Connect the tachometer and set the idle to
the specified idling speed by adjusting the
throttle stop screw. Turn the screw in to
increase engine speed, and out to
decrease engine speed.
Specified idle speed:
1,700 ~1,900 r/min
8-15
