ADJUSTMENTS
(
It is necessary to move the control box to obtain
access to the breaker point box. After removing one
screw (see Figure 7) the control box can be moved
aside to provide ample room to service the breaker
points.
If the points are only slightly burned, dress them
smooth with a file or fine stone. -Measure the gap with
a thickness gauge. Set the gap at .020". Crank the
engine to fully open the breaker points (1/4 turn after
t^ center). Loosen and move the stationary contact
to correct the gap at full separation. Secure the points
and check for correct gap.
Ignition points should break contact just when the
white timing mark on the flywheel aligns with the
19“’ mark on the timing bracket. Check the timing
through the opening in the side of the blower housing
after removing the plug button. See Figure 7. Final
timing is conected by shifting the breaker point box
on its mounting and using a timing light. If specified
timing cannot be obtained by positioning the breaker
point box, check to be sure the timing marks on the
gears are aligned.
