ENGINE
SEE ENGINE MANUAL.

CARBURETOR
Your carburetor is not adjustable. Engine performance

should not be affected at altitudes up to 2,134 meters. If

your engine does not operate properly due to suspected

carburetor problems, take your snow thrower to a Sears

service center/department.
ENGINE SPEED
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 and will

void the warranty. If you think the engine-governed high

speed needs adjusting, contact a Sears service center/

department, which has the proper equipment and experi-

ence to make any necessary ad just ments.
