6.10 SETTING HIGH RPM
(Operating Speed)
1. Loosen throttle control cable clamp screw.
2. Turn high RPM adjustment screw clockwise to increase RPM or counterclockwise to decrease RPM.
3. Push throttle handle all the way to the right.
4. Push the high RPM throttle paddle to the left until is rests on the high RPM adjustment screw and
tighten the throttle cable clamp screw.
5. Run machine and check engine RPM with a tachometer.
If engine is still not running to specified RPM, repeat above steps until recommended RPM is obtained.
6.11 THROTTLE HANDLE ADJUSTMENT
1. Retighten pivot bolt tight enough as to not allow throttle handle to move forward when machine
is operating
6.12 STORING STOMPERS
The following steps should be taken to prepare your Stomper for storage:
1. Close fuel shut-off valve.
2. Start engine and allow to run until it stops from lack of fuel. This will use up all the fuel in the
carburetor and prevent the formation of deposits due to evaporation of fuel.
GASOLINE IS BOTH TOXIC AND FLAMMABLE. DO NOT SMOKE WHILE
WORKING WITH FUEL. DO NOT USE NEAR OPEN FLAME. AVOID PROLONGED
BREATHING OF VAPORS AND SKIN CONTACT. FLASH POINT OF GASOLINE
IS 40°F (4°C). SERIOUS ILLNESS OR LOSS OF LIFE COULD RESULT.
3. Disconnect fuel line and permit all fuel to drain from the fuel tank. Replace fuel lines.
4. Remove spark plug and pour 60cc or 2 ounces (1/4 cup) of motor oil into the cylinder. Replace
plug.
5. Crank the engine two or three times to distribute the oil throughout the cylinder. This will help prevent
rusting during storage.
6. Store the unit in an upright position (as in the operating position) in a cool, dry, ventilated area.
