SERVICE AND ADJUSTMENT
HOW TO ADJUST THE CARBURETOR
A dirty air cleaner will cause the engine to
run improperly or to smoke excessively. Be-
fore adjusting the carburetor, make sure the
air cleaner is clean. Never make unneces-
sary adjustments to the carburetor. The car-
buretor was set at the factory to operate
efficiently under most applications. However,
if adjustments are required, we recommend
you contact your nearest Sears Service Cen-
ter. If you feel that you are competent to
make carburetor adjustment proceed as fol-
lows.
1,
2.
Lower the wheels to the transport posi-
tion.
Locate the idle speed adjustment
screw (see Figure 12). Turn the idle ad-
justment screw 1/4 turn clockwise (to
the left).
3. Start the engine and release the throttle
control.
4. Tilt the cultivator back on the wheels or
stake so that the tines are off the ground.
If the tines turn, repeat step 2.
WARNING: The engine gover-
nor is set at the factory. Do not
change the governor setting.
Over speeding the engine above the fac-
tory setting can be dangerous. If you
think the engine governor needs an ad-
justment, contact your nearest Sears
Service Center.
