ENGINE SPEED GOVERNOR.
a.
The limiting speed mechanical governor is a single weight-type governor that controls the engine idling speed
and limits the maximum operating speed of the engine.
b.
Each governor has an identification plate located on the control housing, containing the governorassembly
number, type, idle-range rpm, and drive ratio. The maximum engine speed, not shown on the identification plate, is
stamped on the option plate attached to the valve rocker cover.

The governor provides full fuel for starting when the speed control lever is in the idle position. Immediately after
starting, the governor moves the injector racks to the position required for idling.
