Adjusting Throttle Control
If your lawn mower is equipped with an adjustable throttle control on the handle (refer to the first category of
throttle control described on page 13 of this manual), adjust it following instructions below.
Adjust the throttle control only if it is out of adjustment, or if it has been replaced.
•
Remove the screw shown in Figure 15. Remove the cable clamp from the cable. NOTE: If your mower
has a Tecumseh engine, simply loosen the screw shown in Figure 15 so the cable will move freely
beneath the clamp. It is not necessary to remove the screw and clamp completely.
•
Push the throttle control lever on the handle all the way forward as far as it will go, then back it off one
“click.” Make certain the throttle control lever remains in this position.
•
Push the control lever on the engine as far toward the rear of the engine as it will go. Secure the cable in
this position with the cable clamp and screw.
