Figure 11. Optimum Low Idle Fuel Setting.
4. Low Idle Fuel Needle Setting: Place the throttle
into the “idle” or “slow” position.
Turn the low idle fuel adjusting needle out
(counterclockwise) from the preliminary setting
until engine speed decreases (rich). Note the
position of the needle.
Now turn the adjusting needle in (clockwise). The
engine speed may increase, then it will decrease
as the needle is turned in (lean). Note the position
of the needle.
Set the adjusting needle midway between the rich
and lean settings. See Figure 11.
5. Low Idle Speed Setting: Place the throttle control
into the “idle” or “slow” position. Set the low idle
speed to 1200 RPM* (± 75 RPM) by turning the
low idle speed adjusting screw in or out . Check
the speed using a tachometer.
*NOTE: The actual low idle speed depends on the
application – refer to equipment
manufacturer’s recommendations. The
recommended low idle speed for basic
engines is 1200 RPM. To ensure best
results when setting the low idle fuel
needle, the low idle speed must not
exceed 1500 RPM.

Troubleshooting
When troubles occur, be sure to check the simple causes which, at first, may seem too obvious to be considered.
For example, a starting problem could be caused by an empty fuel tank. Some common causes of engine troubles
are listed in the following table.
Do not attempt to service or replace major engine components, or any items that require special timing or
adjustment procedures. Have your Kohler Engine Service Dealer do this work.
