TO ADJUST THE CARBURETOR
The carburetor is not adjustable. En-
gine performance should not be af-
fected at altitudes up to 7,000 feet. For
operation at higher elevations, contact
your nearest Sears Store.
IMPORTANT: Never tamper withthe
engine governor, whichis factory set for
proper engine speed. Over-speeding
the engine above the factory high
speed setting can be dangerous. If the
engine-governed high speed needs an
adjustment, contact an authorized
Sears Service Center. They have the
proper equipment and experience to
make any necessary adjustments.
