i. Adjust high speed stop screw (E) to obtain 3100-3120 RPM. Tighten
locking nut on high speed stop screw (E).Set adjuster bracket (see
View B) so that when operator control lever is forward over center,
lever (A) is just touching the high speed stop screw (at 3100-3120
RPM). Lever (A) should not be forced against the high speed stop
screw.
j. With lever (A) against high speed stop screw (E), turn surge screw
(C) clockwise to increase engine to 3220-3230 RPM. Tighten locking
nut on surge screw (C).
k. Return operator control lever to idle position to verify the engine
RPM’s as set in step e. above. Reset if required.
