First. Adjust the screw "E" (Figure 9) until it just touches the push finger "G." Tighten locknut "P." Second. Turn fly wheels to the right until the piston starts in the cylinder on the compression stroke, then continue to turn them slowly until the word "spark" on the rim of the fly wheel is opposite the top of the cam rod (Figure 13). This is the point at which the spark should be made.
Third. Place the tripping lever "A" on the magneto and cock the springs as shown in Figure 6, page 12. Be sure the timing lever "J" (Figure 7) is in the running position. Fourth. See that the screws which fasten the clamp to the push rod are tight and that the screw nearest the cylinder head is in the hole in the bottom of the cam rod, then adjust the length of push rod "H" (Figure 7) until the end of the rod touches the push finger "G." Tighten locknut "0."
Fifth. Loosen set screw "S," move wedge "K" on the push rod toward the magneto until the lower edge of the end of the rod "H" is just even with the upper edge of the magneto push finger "G" as shown, tighten set screw "S," then the locknut "N." Sixth. Take off the tripping lever, be sure the magneto wire is fastened to the terminal (Figure 12, page 14). Turn the fly wheels to the right to see if the magneto trips off when the word "spark" is opposite the top of the cam rod. If not, adjust the wedge "K" carefully until it does. To make engine fire earlier, move wedge "K" toward magneto. To fire later, move wedge "K" away from magneto. IMPORTANT. The adjusting screw "E" as shown in Figure 9 should always be set so it will just touch the push finger "G" when the spring arm "C" is in a horizontal position.
