LINKAGEREMOTE CONTROLSIn general, there are three types of remote controls:Governor Control, Throttle Control, Choke-A-MaticControl. Fig. 1 to Fig. 6, show the operation of thesecontrol systems. See following pages for specific controlassemblies and installation hook-up by engine model.Remote Governor ControlThe Remote Governor control regulates the enginespeed by changing the governor spring tension, thusallowing the governor to control the carburetor throttle atall times and maintain any desired speed. Fig. 1.Fig. 1 - Remote Governor ControlRemote Throttle ControlThe Remote Throttle control is used on an engine havinga fixed no load governed speed setting such as 3600 or4000 R.P.M.This control enables an operator to control the speed ofan engine, similar to an accelerator used on anautomobile. However, when full governed speed isobtained, the governor prevents over speeding andpossible damage to the engine. At any point below thegoverned speed, the throttle is held in a fixed positionand the engine speed will vary with the load. See Fig. 2.Fig. 2 - Remote Throttle ControlChoke-A-Matic Remote ControlOn Choke-A-Matic carburetors, the remote control mustbe correctly adjusted in order to obtain proper operationof the choke and stop switch.Fig. 3 - Typical Stop Switch InstallationNOTE: REMOTE CONTROL SYSTEM MUST BEMOUNTED ON POWERED EQUIPMENT IN NORMALOPERATING POSITION BEFORE ADJUSTMENTSARE MADE.NOV. 19701
