Stop Solenoid (cont’d)
7 Attach the stop solenoid to the shut off lever making
sure the cable tie around the solenoid dust boot is facing
down , away from the mounting bracket. (fig. C2277)
Failure to do so may cause the solenoid to bind and fail
prematurely. Use the cotter pin provided to secure the
solenoid to the stop lever.
8 Bolt the stop solenoid to the mounting bracket. (fig.
C2220)
9 Pull the stop lever and solenoid by hand to initially
adjust the clearance between the stop lever and the stop
cover lever limiter. (fig. C2221) Adjust stop lever clear-
ance to 1 / 16 in. (1.5mm) by turning the swivel.
10 Plug in the solenoid connector to the engine electri-
cal harness.
11 Turn on the ignition key but do not start the engine.
12 Manually push the stop solenoid to the run position.
Check for smooth engagement, no binding should occur.
The solenoid must remain in the “RUN” position now,
without holding by hand.
13 Check the stop lever clearance again as the solenoid
is engaged. Adjust to 1 / 16 in. (1.5mm).
14 Apply Loctite 242 (blue) to the swivel and jam nut
and turn the jam nut against the end of the solenoid
plunger. Be sure to support the solenoid as the jam nut is
tightened.
