It's not likely that this adjustment will change by itself.
Perform this procedure only when the engine doesn't reach
its maximum no-load speed and you are sure that the engine
is correctly tuned (good spark plug, clean air cleaner, etc.).
1. Loosen, but do not remove, the nut on the governor arm
pinch bolt.
2. Move the governor arm rearward to fully open the throttle
and hold it in this position.
3. Rotate the governor arm shaft fully clockwise and hold it
there with a pair of pliers.

(8.0 ft-lb) to secure the arm to the shaft.
5. Start the engine and allow it to warm to normal operating
temperature.
6. With the throttle in FAST, the engine should be at its
maximum governed speed.
MAXIMUM NO-LOAD SPEED 3556 *50 rpm
If the no-load speed is not within the limits, adjust the throttle
cable.
