E. Carburetor
If you think your carburetor needs adjusting, see your
nearest Authorized TecumsehPower Servicing Dealer.
Engine performance should not be affected at altitudes
up to 7,000 feet (2,134 meters). For operation at higher
elevations, contact an Authorized TecumsehPower
Servicing Dealer.
F. Engine Speed
To avoid serious injury or death,
DO NOT modify engine in any way.
Tampering with the governor setting can lead to a runaway
engine and cause it to operate at unsafe speeds. NEVER
tamper with factory setting of engine governor.
Running the engine faster than the speed set at the factory
can be dangerous and will
VOID THE ENGINE WARRANTY.
G. Engine Stopping Mechanism
Some engines are equipped with a
federally-mandated mechanism which
stops the engine and mower blade. To avoid serious injury
or death as a result of contact with the mower blade, DO
NOT interfere with or bypass this mechanism. Parts of the
mechanism may be subject to wear and must be checked
once a year by an Authorized TecumsehPower Servicing
Dealer. In the event the mechanism fails for any reason,
you must NOT use the engine until corrected by an
Authorized TecumsehPower Servicing Dealer.
H. Adjustments
DO NOT make any engine adjustments. Factory settings
are satisfactory for most conditions. If adjustments are
needed, contact your Authorized TecumsehPower
Servicing Dealer.
VIII. Transporting Your Engine
NEVER transport this engine inside
another vehicle or in any enclosed
space if there is any gasoline in the tank. Fuel vapor or
spilled fuel may ignite leading to serious injury or death.
If there is fuel in the fuel tank, close
the fuel shut-off valve, if equipped,
and transport the engine upright in an open vehicle, such
as an open trailer or open bed of a pickup truck.
If you DO NOT have an open vehicle and have to transport
the engine upright in a closed vehicle, follow these steps
for emptying the fuel tank before transporting:
1. Empty fuel tank by using a commercially available
suction device designed for use with gasoline.
To avoid serious injury or death, DO
NOT pour fuel from engine or siphon
fuel by mouth.
2. Drain fuel into an approved red GASOLINE container,
being careful to avoid spilling.
3. Run the engine until remaining fuel is consumed.
NEVER leave the engine unattended
when it is running and NEVER run
engine in enclosed areas to avoid death or serious injury.
