Adjust therod ends on the threaded linkage rod so that thecenter to center distance of the rod ends is thesame or slightly longer than that measured betweenthe fuel shutoff lever and the actuator lever.(The 3.75 dimension is only approximate. If thelinkage is too short, the actuator lever willattain its “no fuel” position [full clockwise]before the fuel shutoff lever reaches its “no fuel”position; the fuel shutoff lever will never reach“no fuel”.If the linkage is too long, theactuator lever will reach its “full fuel” position[full counterclockwise] before the fuel shutofflever reaches its “full fuel” position; full loadwill not be reached.) It may be necessary toreadjust the position of the fuel shutoff leverand/or the actuator lever to accommodate thecenter to center distance of the rod ends and toassure complete fuel shutoff and full load opera-tion.Fuel shutoff and actuator lever adjustmentswill be covered under replacement procedures.Tighten the nuts on the linkage rod against therod ends to maintain proper spacing.(7) Return the generator set START-RUN-STOPswitch to the STOP position and the BATTLE SHORTswitch to the OFF position.(8) Reconnect the actuator linkage rod endto the engine fuel shutoff lever.(9) Adjust the control unit gain control toits approximate mid-range position.(10) Adjust the control unit stabilitycontrol to its fully counterclockwise position.(11) Adjust the generator set frequencyadjust potentiometer (pot) (located on thegenerator set control panel) to mid-range.(12) Using a small screwdriver, turn thecontrol unit frequency adjust screw (located onthe left side vertical face of the control unit)at least 22 turns counterclockwise (oppositeincrease arrow).This will give the lowestpossible engine governed speed.NOTETwo people will be rewired to adjust thecontrol unit.Ensure that the actuatorlinkage rod and all levers are securelyfastened and move freely (without binding)before operating the engine. Manuallyovercome the actuator until adjustment ofthe control unit is completed and thegovernor is in control. Adjustment ofthe control unit will be made with theengine operating in a no-load condition.(13) Start the engine, manually operating thefuel shutoff lever.Change 97-21
