Generators require a fixed engine speed to maintain the
correct voltage. Engine speed is controlled by a governor
which automatically adjusts to varying loads on the
engine to maintain a constant speed of 3600 rpm. There
is no throttle control.
To set the engine to the proper speed:
Turn the speed adjusting screw
(k) in or out to obtain a
no-load speed of 3100 rpm. See Figure 5-7.
CAUTION: Setting the engine speed too high or too low
may damage tools and other appliances attached to the
generator.
