Your carburetor has a non-adjustable fixed
main jet for mixture control. If your engine
does not operate properly due to sus­
pected carburetor problems, take your
lawn mower to an authorized service
center for repair or adjustment.
IMPORTANT; Never tamper with the
engine governor, which is factory set for
the proper engine speed. Overspeeding
the engine above the factory high speed
scan be dangerous. If you think the
engine-governed high speed needs
adjusting, contact your nearest authorized
service center, which has proper equip­
ment and experience to make any
necessary adjustments.

Do not attempt to increase engine speed
