3.6 ENGINE SPEED ADJUSTMENT
A mechanical governor controls the engine speed.
The governor is built into the fuel injection pump. All

Engine” Procedure in this manual.
B. Let the engine warm-up. Loosen the jam
nut(s) (Figure #37B, C, D).
C. While observing the instrument panel tach
rotate the long adjustor clockwise to lower
the RPM and counter clockwise to raise the
RPM’s until desired speed is obtained. Ref.
Figure #37B, C, D.
D. Holding secure the long adjustor with a
wrench tighten the jam nut.
E. Stop engine by following “To Stop Engine”
Procedure in this manual.
If the engine has been designed and tested for range
rating, stamp the metal tag titled FIELD SETTING
with the final adjusted speed, horsepower, and 67%
overspeed verify shutdown setting and keep with the
