(14) Turn the control unit frequency adjust screwclockwise until the proper engine speed is obtained.Several turns may be required. The generator setfrequency adjust pot should now have sufficient adjust-ment travel to cause the generator set frequency meterto indicate beyond both of its extreme limits (388-412Hz).(15) If the engine is unstable as indicated by con-tinuous movement of the actuator lever, turn the controlunit gain control counterclockwise until stability is ob-tained as indicated by a stationary actuator lever. Re-adjust the control unit frequency adjust screw to theproper engine speed.(16) Turn the control unit gain control clockwise un-til the engine becomes just unstable; back the gain con-trol counterclockwise until the engine is again stable.(17) Turn the control unit stability controlclockwise until the engine becomes just unstable; backthe stability control counterclockwise until the engine isagain stable.NOTEThe governor is now set to a nominally goodoperating point.(18) Adjust control unit gain, stability and frequen-cy under various load conditions and load changes toobtain the desired governing characteristics.(19) When the electric governor system is properlyadjusted, the locknuts on the control unit gain andstability controls should be tightened.7-11. ACTUATORUNIT.a. Removal.(1) Disconnect electrical connector P22, (1, figure7-16).(2) Disconnect the actuator lever from the actuatorlinkage rod by removing the hex head cap screw (2), flat-washer (3), and the self-locking nut (4).NOTEIt may be necessary to remove the actuatorbracket to gain access to the hardware securingthe actuator to the actuator bracket. If this isnot necessary, proceed to paragraph (3). Ifremoval is required, then proceed as follows:(a) Loosen the drive belt of the engine alternator.(b) Remove the two hex head screws (5) and lockwashers (6) securing the actuator bracket, throughspacers (7), to the engine through the alternator mount-ing bracket.(3) Disconnect the actuator from the actuatorbracket by removing two hex head screws (8), flat-washers (9), lock washers (10) and nuts (11).Remove the actuator.b. Testing.(1) Using an ohmmeter, check for continuity be-tween pins A and B and pins C and D. Replace actuatorif there is no continuity.(2) Check for short circuit between each pin on theconnector and the housing. Replace actuator if any pin isshorted to case,c. Installation.(1) Position the actuator lever (12, figure 4-30.3)roughly horizontal by loosening the nut on the splinedshaft end of the actuator lever, rotating the lever andtightening the nut.(2) Align the actuator with the two holes in theactuator bracket, secure the actuator to the actuatorbracket with two ¾-inch long hex head screws (8), flat-washers (9), lock washers (10) and nuts (11).NOTEIf the actuator bracket has not been removed,proceed with paragraph (3). If the bracket mustbe installed, proceed as follows:(a) Insert the spacers (7) through the alternatormounting bracket.(b) Secure the actuator bracket to the engine byinserting the two 1½-inch long hex head screws (5),lockwashers (6), into the appropriate holes in the ac-tuator bracket, through the spacers (7) and into thethreaded holes in the engine; tighten the two screws.(c) Adjust the drive belt of the engine alternatorto the required tension and secure the alternator.(3) Attach the actuator lever to the actuatorlinkage rod with the 1½-inch long hex head cap screw (2),two flatwashers (3) and the self-locking nut (4).(4) Connect electrical connector P22 (l).7-12. ELECTRICGOVERNORMAGNETICPICKUP.a. Removal.(1) Disconnect electrical connector P23 (1, figure7-17).(2) Loosen locknut (2) and unscrew the threadedmagnetic pickup from the flywheel housing (3). Removethe magnetic pickup.b. Testing.(1) Using an ohmmeter, test for continuity betweenpins A and B on the connector.(2) If the circuit is open discard the magneticpickup.c. Installation.(1) Rotate the engine until the top land of one geartooth is in line with the center of the threaded hole in theflywheel housing.(2) Replace the magnetic pickup (3) into the thread-ed hole in the flywheel housing until the tip contacts thetop of the gear tooth. Back the magnetic pickup out one-half to three-quarter turn and secure with the locknut (5)provided.(3) Connect electrical connector P23 (1),7-22Change 10
