Every unit is run at the factory and the carburettor is set in com-
pliance with Emission Regulations. In addition, the carburettor is
equipped with "H" (High Speed Needle) and "L" (Low Speed Nee-
dle) needle adjustment limiters that prevent settings outside ac-
ceptable limits.

muffler.
2. Start engine and run several minutes to bring to operating
temperature. Flash choke twice during warm-up to clear any
air from the fuel system.
3. Stop engine. Turn "H" speed needle anticlockwise to stop.
Turn "L" speed needle midway between full clockwise stop
and anticlockwise stop.
4. Idle Speed Adjustment: . Start engine, turn "Idle" speed ad-
justment knob clockwise until the wheel begins to turn, then
turn knob out anticlockwise until the wheel stops turning.
Turn knob out, anticlockwise, an additional 1/4 turn.
5. Accelerate to full throttle for 2 - 3 seconds to clear any ex-
cess fuel in the engine, then return to idle. Accelerate engine
to full throttle to check for smooth transition from idle to high
speed. If engine hesitates turn "L" needle anticlockwise 1/8
turn and repeat acceleration. Continue adjustment until
smooth acceleration results.
