EVAPORATIVE EMISSION COMPONENTS:
The unit you have purchased includes
the following components that are in
compliance with 2008 California Air
Resources Board Evaporative Emission
Standards;
1. Fuel Hose
2. Fuel Hose Fittings
These components should be inspected
on a daily basis for cracks, leaks, and
abnormal wear. If cracking, leaks or
abnormal wear has occurred, the
components should be replaced
immediately.
IDLE CONTROL ADJUSTMENT:
NOTE: The automatic idle speed is set
between 2640 and 2940 RPM.
The idle speed has been pre-set at
the factory and should rarely require
readjustment. We recommend that
all adjustments of this nature be
made by a Dayton Customer Service
Representative.
Erratic idle operation of the engine
usually indicates a need for carburetor
adjustment to provide a smooth idle.
The idle control will not function
properly when the idle speed is
below the recommended limits or the
carburetor is improperly adjusted.
