Adjust Throttle Cable
Releasing the acceleratorpedal should allow the throttle
cable to close the carburetor throttle control lever so that
the lever touches the adjustment screw. The adjustment
screw keeps the throttle valve inside the carburetor
open slightly to prevent the valve from binding.
1. Park machine on a level surface, stop engine, en-
gage parking brake and remove key from the ignition
switch.
2. Lift cargo box and prop with rod to gain access to the
engine and transaxle.
3. Rotate governor arm on transaxle fully clockwise
(Fig. 1).
4. Make sure of the following:
A. The carburetor throttle lever should be to the fully
open position without contacting the stop ( Fig. 2).
B. Adjust governor cable at the transaxle cable
bracket as necessary, so there is no compression of
the cable (Fig. 1). This will allow the throttle lever to
fully close when the accelerator pedal is released.
5. Release the governor arm on transaxle and make
sure that the carburetor throttle lever fully closes.
6. After throttle cable adjustment is correct, lower and
secure cargo box.
