PLUG WIRE TO PREVENT INADVERTENT STARTING OF UNIT.
•
THROTTLE CABLE ADJUSTMENT:
Correct
cable adjustment allows for full range of
movement of throttle body on engine in
conjunction with throttle control on handle. To
adjust, loosen cable clip screw on engine, then
slide cable housing in or out in approximately
1/8-1/4” increments. Retighten screw, recheck,
and readjust as needed.
•
FRONT WHEEL CAMBER ADJUSTMENT:
Correct camber adjustment will place the front
axle at 0 degrees, or parallel with level ground,
and the wheel at 90 degrees or perpendicular
with level ground. Adjust by loosening the
three mounting bolts and placing a square
aside the wheel and adjusting until square sits
flat on ground and touches upper and lower
points of tire, then retightening bolts. An
alternate method is to place a level against the
side of the caster bracket.
