CABLE HOOK-UP AND ADJUSTMENT
FOR 7 HP KOHLER ENGINE
There really isn't very much adjustment re-
quired on the throttle cable for your 7 HP Kohler
engine. Once it is properly hooked up, all you're
likely to require is some regular maintenance,
such as making sure that the full length of the
throttle cable is oiled and well lubricated. Be
sure
to squirt some oil inside the casing at both
ends. Then, make sure
that the clamp screw is
tight and in the proper position so it doesn't
permit a bend in the wire to occur. See Photos
7/46 and 7/47
for the correct throttle wire con-
nection to the governor control disc.

When hooking up a new throttle wire (or re-
placing your old wire after engine removal)
make sure
the wire doesn't take an extreme
bend. You should connect the wire in the first
practical hole of the disc. You'll note that the
full range from low speed to high speed is cov-
ered with very little throttle lever movement. So
keep
that in mind while operating your Troy-
Bilt. The 7 HP Kohler engine "lugs" along very
well at relatively
low speed-that is it provides
quite enough power to do most tilling jobs at
relatively
slow engine speeds. It sounds like the
engine is operating so quietly that you hardly
rea~ize that it is doing so much work so easily.

NOTE: For both the 6 H.P. Tecumseh-Lauson
and the Kohler engines, clips are not designed
to fit all the way around the handlebars.
