27 DR POWERWAGON 5.0 Safety & Operating Instructions
5. Tilt and place the handle of the new throttle assembly up through the slot in the
control panel and fasten with two screws. Position the throttle handle to
IDLE/STOP.
6. Route the throttle cable the same as the old cable, being careful not to bend or kink
the cable.
7. Place the ″Z″ bend end of the throttle cable into the small hole in the throttle plate
on the engine. The throttle plate is a black tab that protrudes from the engine
below the plastic air filter. It has two holes, and the cable goes into the smaller
hole. Place the throttle cable sheath under the cable clamp. (Figure 26)
8. Make sure that the throttle plate is all the way back to the stop position. It will
normally retract to this position.
9. Tighten the throttle cable clamp screw making sure that the throttle handle is still in
the IDLE/STOP position. The throttle cable should have very little or no tension
between the cable clamp and the throttle plate.
10. Start the engine and check the operation of the machine. The DR
POWERWAGON 5.0 should idle smoothly, but should not move while in idle,
and should not jump after being put into gear.
Important! If the cable is clamped with too much tension between these
points the engine will not return to idle properly.
