TO ADJUST CARBURETOR

The carburetor has been preset at the factory and adjustment should not be nec- essary. However, minor adjustment may be required to compensate for differences in fuel, temperature, altitude or load. If the carburetor does need adjustment, see engine manual.

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 an authorized service center/department, which has proper equipment and experience to make any necessary adjustments.
