on operating direction of control cables to be used.
On Control Levers:
Hole A is used for Outer Pull control cable actuation.
Hole B is used for Inner Pull control cable actuation.
1. Connect choke linkage to appropriate hole in choke
lever and secure with small clip.
2. Connect throttle linkage to appropriate hole in
throttle lever and secure with small clip.
Adjusting Governor
1. Position governor lever so clamping area is inboard
but completely on knurled area of governor cross
shaft.
2. Move governor lever toward carburetor as far as it
will go (wide-open throttle) and hold in position.
3. Insert a long thin rod or tool into hole on cross shaft
and rotate shaft clockwise (viewed from end) as far
as it will turn, then tighten to torque specifi cation.
