15 & 17 HP KAWASAKI SPEED CONTROL
(THROTTLE CABLE HOOK-UP)
c) Pull cable upward for 14 HP Kawasaki and Kohler units (pull the cable to the
right when facing the control plate on the 15 & 17 HP Kawasaki units) until
alignment holes in control plate lever and control plate line up. For Kawasaki
15/64” (6mm) drill bit can be inserted through these two holes to align them.
For Kohler use a 19/64” drill bit. Once the holes are aligned, tighten clamp
onto throttle cable.
d) Be sure the
choke adjusting screw just contacts the choke lever
when the
throttle control is in the full throttle position. Choke link should not move when
throttle control is moved to the full throttle position. Choke must be completely
closed when throttle lever is moved to the full forward “CHOKE” position.
e) This step needs to be done after the
unit has been assembled and the
engine has been started
. Refer to Section 4 (Operation Instructions).
For Kohler and 14 HP Kawasaki engines:
Check the engine “STOP” position by moving throttle control fully to the rear.
(Note: There is a detent toward the end of the slot in the console for “IDLE”;
the “STOP” lower position is rearward from this detent).
For Kohler engines:
If the engine continues to run in the "STOP" position, turn kill switch
adjusting screw inward until engine stops, then give it an additional 1/2 to
3/4 turn to assure it will always function properly.
(The 14 HP Kawasaki kill switch is not adjustable).
