1. Loosen the two screws on the top of the panel.

2. Move the control lever to full wide open throttle position

and install a wire or aligning pin through the hole in the

top of the panel, the hole in the choke actuating lever,

and the hole in the choke (diag. 12).

3. With the components aligned, tighten the two screws

on the control panel.

The following pages illustrate common linkage

attachment. Whenever the carburetor or the governor

linkage is removed or replaced, the engine R.P.M.'s

should also be checked. Use microfiche card #30 or the

computer parts look-up system for the correct R.P.M.

settings for the engine model and specification.

SNAP IN "STYLE SPEED CONTROL"

This style of speed control is used on 3 - 6.75 model

rotary mower engines and is adjusted by two bendable

tabs. Use the speed adjustment tool (part # 670326) as

illustrated in diag.13 to adjust engine speed.

To adjust high speed, move the speed control lever to

the high speed position and align the high speed pin

holes. Place the adjustment tool on the high speed tab

and move the tab to achieve the correct engine speed.

Move the speed control lever to the low speed position,

place the adjustment tool on the low speed tab and bend

to either increase or decrease to the correct speed.

SPEED CONTROLS AND LINKAGE

Many different types of speed controls and linkage are used for O.E.M. applications. Linkage attachment points are best

recorded or marked prior to disassembly. This assures the correct placement during reassembly. On vertical shaft

engines the solid link is always connected from the outermost hole in the governor lever to the throttle in the carburetor.

The link with the governor spring attached is connected between the control lever and the lower hole in the governor

lever. Horizontal engines use one location (non-adjustable) speed control brackets. Most vertical engines use an adjustable

speed control bracket mounted above the carburetor. The ignition ground out switch, idle R.P.M. and high speed R.P.M.

adjustment screws are located on the speed control bracket. Some models use the idle R.P.M. adjustment on the

carburetor.

Most vertical shaft engines must have the speed control bracket aligned when installing. To align the control bracket, use

the following steps.
