5.2.2 ENGINE SPEED SETTING
Every engine is shipped from the engine factory without
gas or oil because of fire hazards during shipping. They
are all set with a high idle of 3500 RPM. Since no fluids
are added at the Mixer factory, the RPM is not reset.
When the Mixer is delivered, the fluids must be added
and RPM reset. To reset the RPM, follow this procedure:
1.
Read the engine manual supplied with the
machine.
2.
Add fuel and the specified motor oil to the
crankcase.
3.
Start the engine and run at wide open
throttle.
4.
Use a screwdriver to reset the high idle
stop screw.
5.
Use the drum revolutions to determine
Engine RPM setting. Set the engine RPM to give
a drum rotation speed of 18-20 RPM when the
drum is loaded.
6.
Reset if the speed change as required.
