I recently obtained a 6.5 HP, Petter BA1 air cooled engine direct coupled to an 1800 RPM head in a small plant.  Got it fired up and load testing for the first time today and find the unit is running a bit shy of 1800 and I need to bump up the speed about 5 Hz.  I have no info or experience with this engine and cannot identify the speed screw.  Anyone know these machines?

Anyone have a pdf or other file of the service manual for this engine they might care to share?

Thanx!

Please cancel my request for assistance with the governor setting.  It wasn't obvious but I finally figured out how to do this.  I now have the speed where I wanted it.   8)
