2. Adjust the engine's speed to obtain the frequency corresponding to the voltage selected by e,,'lending or
shortening the Throttle Adjustment Linkage. Make sure the solenoid's plunger is completely bottomed in
the solenoid.
(See figure below.)
II CAUTION n
Failure of the solenoid to bottom in the solenoid will result in a failed solenoid.
To avoid failure
of the solenoid, ensure that the solenoid plunger bottoms in the
solenoid. Check the solenoid's operation at the initial start-up.
Periodically lubricated
linkage joints between the solenoid plunger and the throttle arm will eliminate binding.
NOTE: The solenoid plunger must move smoothly and rapidly into the solenoid when
the solenoid is electrically energized, drawing the engine's throttle arm into the

position.
To arrive at the appropriate frequency, either monitor the speed
of the engine/generator with a
tachometer, or monitor the frequency with a frequency meter, the latter method being the more precise of
the two.
