SERVICE AND ADJUSTMENTS
ENGINE
TO ADJUST THROTTLE CONTROL CABLE
(See Fig. XX)
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 throttle control lever
from slow to choke position. Slowly move lever from
choke to fast position.
• Check that holes “A” in governor control lever and hole
in governor plate line-up. If holes “A” are not aligned,
loosen clamp screw and move throttle cable until holes
are aligned. Tighten clamp screw securely.
TO ADJUST CARBURETOR (See Fig. 2B)
NOTE: The carburetor on this engine is low emission. It is
equipped with an idle fuel adjusting needle with a limiter
cap, which allows some adjustment within the limits al
lowed by the cap. Do not attempt to remove the lirhiter cap.
The limiter cap cannot be removed without breaking the
adjusting needle.
The carburetor has been preset at the factory and adjust
ment should not be necessary. However, minor adjust
ment may be required to compensate fordifferences in fuel,
temperature, altitude or load. If the carburetor does need
adjustment, proceed as follows:
In general, turning idle mixture valve in (clockwise) de
creases the supply of fuel to the engine giving a leaner fuel/
air mixture. Turning the idle mixture valve out (counter
clockwise) increases the supply of fuel to the engine giving
a richer fuel/air mixture.
IMPORTANT: DAMAGE TO THE NEEDLE VALVE AND
THE SEAT IN CARBURETOR MAY RESULT IF SCREW IS
TURNED IN TOO TIGHT.
PRELIMINARY SETTING -
• Air cleaner assembly must be assembled to the carbu
retor when making carburetor adjustments.
• Be sure the throttle control cable is adjusted properly
(see above).
FINAL SETTING -
• Start engine and allow to warm for five minutes. Make
final adjustments with engine running and shift/motion
controi lever in neutrai (N) position.
• Move throttle control lever to slow position. With finger,
rotate and hold throttle lever against idle speed screw.
Turn idle speed screw to attain 1750 RPM.
• While still holding throttle lever against idle speed
screw, turn idle mixture valve full travel clockwise then
counterclockwise until engine runs rough. Turn valve
to a point midway between those two positions. Re
lease throttle lever.
ACCELERATION TEST -
• Move throttle control lever from slow to fast position. If
engine hesitates or dies, turn idie mixture vaive out
(counterclockwise) 1 /8 turn. Repeat test and continue
to adjust, if 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-GOVERNED
HIGH SPEED NEEDS ADJUSTING, CONTACT YOUR
NEAREST AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER/
DEPARTMENT, WHICH HAS PROPER EQUIPMENT AND
EXPERIENCE TO MAKE ANY NECESSARY
ADJUSTMENTS.
