Operating in high altitude
When the generator is in high altitude, the fuel-air mix in a
standard carburetor will be fuel-rich. Performance will diminish
and fuel consumption will increase.
The performance during a high altitude opertion may improve
if the carburetor is adjusted and if the head pin is set. Your
generator is set to operate at higher altitudes than 6 000 ft
above sea level, if you notice that your generator does not
operate efficiently, allow a Truper authorized service center to
perform the corresponding modifications to the carburetor.
Even tough carburetor injection is adequate, power in the motor
will decrease 3,5% approximately with each 1 000 ft increment
above 6 890 ft above sea level. Regarding altitude, change
in power will be higher if any carburetor adjustment is made.
If the generator is operating at an altitude
that is inadequate to that at which the carburetor is adjusted,
this could result in poor performance, overheating, and serious
engine damage caused by an excessive air-fuel mixture, check
according to the chart shown below
