The governor actuator linkage must be adjusted in order to synchronize the actuator travel with the fuel
control linkage position.

Note: Before the adjustment of the actuator linkage is made, the fuel injectors must be correctly
synchronized. Refer to Testing And Adjusting, "Fuel Injector Synchronization".

1. Remove the two plugs from location (Y) and from location (Z) on governor control housing (5) .

2. Remove synchronizing pin (2) from the storage location in the governor control housing. Install
the synchronizing pin in the governor control housing at location (Z) without the spacer.

Tighten the synchronizing pin to the following torque. ... 10 ± 2 N·m (7 ± 1 lb ft)

3. Rotate shaft (6) in the "Fuel On" direction until the flat surface of the fuel stop lever contacts
synchronizing pin (2). Hold the shaft in position. Dead weights are recommended.

4. Either a 4C-6594 Timing and Fuel Setting Tool or an 8T-1000 Electronic Position Indicator is
acceptable to use. One of these tools will be installed in the threaded hole at location (Y) of the
fuel control housing.

a. For the 4C-6594 Timing and Fuel Setting Tool, install the 5P-4814 Collet Clamp in the
threaded hole at location (Y). Slide the 6V-3075 Dial Indicator with the 5P-7263 Indicator
Contact Point into the 5P-4814 Collet Clamp. When the contact point seats against the fuel
stop lever, slide the indicator inward or slide the indicator outward until the indicator dial
reads +5.00 mm (+0.197 inch). Tighten the collet in order to hold the indicator in position.
The indicator is now ready to be used.

b. For the 8T-1000 Electronic Position Indicator, install the 5P-4814 Collet Clamp in the
threaded hole at location (Y). Slide the 8T-1002 Probe with the 5P-7263 Indicator Contact
Point into the 5P-4814 Collet Clamp until the 8T-1002 Probe sleeve bottoms in the 5P-
4814 Collet Clamp. Tighten the collet enough to hold the probe in position. Attach the
probe to the 8T-1001 Electronic Indicator. Turn the indicator "ON" and set the indicator to
measure millimeters. With the indicator "ON", touch the negative "-" button. Then touch the
zero button. The indicator is now ready to be used.

5. Remove synchronizing pin (2) from the governor control housing and install the pin into the
storage location. Install the plug in the threaded hole at location (Z) .

6. Remove rod assembly (7) .

7. Rotate governor terminal shaft (4) to the minimum fuel position. Then hold the governor terminal
shaft in place.

8. Install lever (8) on shaft (4) so the centerline of the lever is 40.7 degrees from the vertical
centerline. This is shown by angle (3) .

9. Adjust rod assembly (5) between the control housing lever and the actuator lever (4). Use the
appropriate procedure that follows.

a. If the 8T-1000 Electronic Position Indicator is being used, adjust the rod assembly until the
8T-1001 Electronic Indicator displays a reading of -9.50 mm (-0.374 inch). Secure the rod
assembly in place with the locknuts. Ensure that each rod end on the rod assembly has the
same amount of thread engagement.

b. If the 4C-6594 Timing and Fuel Setting Tool is being used, adjust the rod assembly until
the 6V-3075 Dial Indicator displays a reading of -4.50 mm (-0.177 inch). Secure the rod
assembly in place with the locknuts. Ensure that each rod end on the rod assembly has the
same amount of thread engagement.

The engine may overspeed due to incorrect assembly or adjustment.

Engine overspeed could result in personal injury, loss of life and/or

property damage.

Be prepared to stop the engine by activating the engine shutdown

system or closing the air inlet lines.

10. The definition of governor deadband is the total amount of travel between the point of actual fuel
shutoff and the actual "FUEL OFF" position. When the 8T-1001 Electronic Indicator is used and
when the reading of the maximum actuator "FUEL OFF" is more positive than -9.50 mm (-0.374
inch), the governor deadband can be eliminated. -8.75 mm (-0.344 inch) is an example of a
reading that is more positive than -9.50 mm (-0.374 inch). When the 6V-3075 Dial Indicator is
used and when the reading of the maximum actuator "FUEL OFF" is more positive than -4.50 mm
(-0.177 inch), the governor deadband can be eliminated. -3.75 mm (-0.148 inch) is an example of
a reading that is more positive than -4.50 mm (-0.177 inch). This can cause an engine overspeed.

11. Remove the plug from location (Z). Remove synchronizing pin (2) from the storage location in
the governor control housing, and install the pin at location (Z) without the spacer. When the 8T-
1001 Electronic Indicator is used, ensure that the indicator still reads a value of 0.00 mm (0.000
inch). When the 6V-3075 Dial Indicator is used, ensure that the indicator still reads +5.00 mm
(+0.197 inch). If the indicated reading is not correct, repeat Step 3 through Step 9. If the indicated
reading is correct, continue with the procedure. If the 6V-3075 Dial Indicator is used, adjust the
dial indicator in order to read 0.00 mm (0.000 inch). This must be done before continuing the
procedure.

12. Check the fuel setting. See the subject Fuel Setting Check.

13. Remove the dead weight from the actuator terminal shaft.

14. Remove synchronizing pin (2) from location (Z) and install the plug. Install the synchronizing pin
and install the spacer in the storage location.

15. Remove all tooling from location (Y) in the governor control housing. Install the plug at location
(Y) .

16. Before starting the engine, put a mark on the governor actuator's position indicator at the point of
minimum governor travel. This is the engine's stopped position.

The engine may overspeed due to incorrect assembly or adjustment.

Engine overspeed could result in personal injury, loss of life and/or

property damage.

Be prepared to stop the engine by activating the engine shutdown

system or closing the air inlet lines.

17. Start the engine and operate the engine at low idle. Put a mark on the governor actuator's position
indicator. This is the engine running position.

18. The engine running position of the governor actuator must be six degrees or more above the
engine's stopped position.

19. Operate the engine at high idle without a load in order to ensure that the governor actuator can
control the engine.
