SETTING THROTTLE GOVERNOR. We are sending you a device for setting EAC. throttles. It should be fitted up as per attached sketch, a spirit level placed on surface marked level, and the throttle arm moved round until it is in contact with the roller. The biting-in bolt should then be tightened up. The small bolt holding the roller should not be riveted up until the throttle has been set.
