Setting idle speed

To achieve factory idle speed, start the motor and
allow to run at idle for four (4) to five (5) minutes.

Adjust the Idle Speed Screw in very small
increments, 1/8 - 1⁄16 turn at a me.

Observe the engine RPM.

If the idle is too low, turn the screw clockwise to
raise engine RPM.

If the idle is too high, turn the screw counter-
clockwise to lower engine RPM.

After making an adjustment, rev the motor by
turning the throttle until engine RPM climbs, then
quickly return the throttle to idle.

Wait for the engine RPM to settle before
continuing.

Repeat this procedure until the engine idles between 950 and 1050 RPM.
