TO ADJUST CARBURETOR
NOTE: The carburetor on this engine is low
emission. It is equipped with an idle fuel
adjusting needle with a lirniter cap, which
allows some adjustment within the limits
allowed by the cap. Do not attempt to remove
the limiter cap. The limiter cap cannot be
removed without breaking the adjusting
needle.
The carburetor has been preset at the factory
and adjustment should not be necessary°
However, minor adjustment may be required
to compensate for differences in fuel,
temperature, altitude or load. If the carburetor
does need adjustment, proceed as follows:
in general, turning idle mixture valve in
(clockwise) decreases 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 fue! to the
engine giving a richer fuel!air mixture
IMPORTANT: Damage to the needle valve
and the seat in carburetor may resutt if screw
is turned in too tight.
PRELIMINARY SETTING
1o Air cleaner assembly must be assembled
to the carburetor when making carburetor
adjustments.
2. Be sure the throttle control cable is
adjusted properly (see above),
FINAL SETTING -
t. Start engine and allow to warm for five
minutes. Make final adjustments with
engine running and shiflJmotion control
lever in neutral (N) position.
2, Move throttle control lever to slow
position° With finger, rotate and hold
throtIle lever against idle speed screw_
Turn idle speed screw to attain 1750
RPM,
3_ While still holding throttle lever against
idle speed screw, turn idle mixture valve
full travel clockwise then counterclock-
wise until engine runs rough. Turn valve
to a point midway between those two
positions. Release throttle lever
ACCELERATIONTEST
4_ Move throttle control lever from slow to
fast position, if engine hesitates or dies,
rum idle mixture valve out (counterclock-
wise) 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 resulL
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 a
Sears or other qualified service center,
which has proper equipment and experience
to make any necessary adjustments.
