 3161 GOVERNOR
SYSTEMS OPERATION
control the pump pressure.
The pump pressure, as set by the accumulator,
controls the work output of the governor. Pump pressure
is also used for the auxiliary controls installed on the
governor top cover.
Increase In Speed Setting
When the speed setting shaft is turned
clockwise,
the speed setting of the governor is
increased. The high idle screw limits the high speed
setting of the governor. As the speed setting shaft turns,
the speed setting lever pushes down on the floating lever
which is fastened to the speeder plug. The downward
pressure on the speeder plug puts the speeder spring
under compression. The speeder spring force then
