the fuel tank and the carburetor float bowl
of old premix prior to filling with the new
type.

PILOT AIR SCREW ADJUSTMENT
1. Adjust:
9Pilot air screw 1
Adjusting steps:
9Turn in the pilot air screw until it is lightly
seated.
9Turn out the pilot air screw by the factory-
set number of turns.
NOTE:
To optimize the fuel flow at a smaller throttle
opening, each machine’s pilot air screw has
been individually set at the factory. Before
adjusting the pilot air screw, turn it in fully and
count the number of turns. Record this num-
ber as the factory-set number of turns out.
Pilot air screw:
1 turn out
*1-3/8 turns out
