Kerosene Engine Instructions termined by the mark on this valve, as it must be in a horizontal position. With the right hand push the governor shaft arm No. 0154 tight against the end of the governor spindle rod No.068 and in this position tighten the set screw on the governor shaft. THE GOVERNOR The throttling governor engine is also designed with the ball type governor. It is very Sensitive and acts directly on a butterfly valve in the fuel passage going to the cylinder head, which regulates the amount of fuel and air admitted to the cylinder in proportion to the load on the engine, maintaining constant speed with the least fuel consumption under all conditions. When running empty or on a load this type engine exhausts every second revolution of the flywheels. Always make certain that cam rod does not bind and works freely through pocket in governor bracket. Always keep the speed lever set at high speed, as this runs the engine at its regular speed, where it will give its full power. If you reduce the speed of the engine you also reduce the power it will develop. Never slow the engine down on a heavy load. If you want less speed for heavy work get a smaller pulley. By means of the speed regulator you may slow your engine down about 100 R. P. M. (See page 56 for rules for determining the size of pulleys to use.) THE AUTOMATIC CONNECTING ROD GREASE CUP
Fill the cup with grease. Screw the two parts of the cup together securely and turn lever "A" to the left until it reaches the position "D". Then take the screwdriver and turn the screw "C" slowly to the left until the grease starts to come out slowly. Then screw the cup in position on the connecting rod. This cup should be readjusted for hot or cold weather. One filling should be enough for about eight hours' continuous running.
