STATIC GOVERNOR ADJUSTMENT 1. With governor lever nut loose, push governor lever counter-clockwise as far as it will go (wide open throttle) and hold in this position. 2. Rotate governor shaft counter-clockwise as far it will go, Fig. 25. Torque governor nut to 100 in. lbs. (11.0 Nm). A 7/16” crowfoot socket may be required on ducted engines. See procedure below for dual speed or 1800 RPM generators
