ment is necessary, proceed as follows:

Tighten cable clamp screw securely.

ment is necessary, proceed as follows:

TO ADJUST CARBURETOR

Your carburetor is not adjustable. 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. Overspeed­

ing 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.
