Throttle Link Rod

  1. Loosen throttle link lock nut so link is separated and can spring back easily to its innermost position. Mount link in position.
  2. Attach link end with ball and lock nut to throttle spindle. Ensure throttle spindle is in contact with adjusting screw "B" and pulley is seated against idle stop "C". Tighten throttle link lock nut "A". Rotate pulley to ensure link seats against adjusting screw "B" before pulley seats against idle stop "C". See Fig 1.
