CARBURETOR ADJUSTMENT

The carburetor has been pre-set at the factory and readjustment should not be necessary. However, if the carburetor does need to be adjusted, contact your nearest Craftsman Service Center.

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 Craftsman Service Center, which has the proper equipment and experience to make any necessary adjustments.
