ENGINE
Maintenance, repair, or replacement of the
emission control devices and systems, which
are being done at the customers expense,
may be performed by any non-road engine
repair establishment or individual. Warranty
repairs must be performed by an authorized
engine manufacturer's service outlet.
CARBURETOR
If your engine does not operate properly due
to suspected carburetor problems, take your
tractor to a Sears or other qualified service
center for repair and/or adjustment.
High speed stop is factory adjusted. Do not
adjust - damage may result.
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.
