GOVERNOR INSTALLATION AND OPERATION FOR A ROTORWAY Remove existing magnet bracelet on main shaft that signals the rotor tachometer and replace it with one we supplied with kit. The one we enclose is of a higher quality and will make your tachometer read more precise. You should now gap it 1/8 inch your new governor pickup is mounted opposite your tach pickup and also gaped 1/8 inch. The governor control box is mounted on the roof in the doghouse on passenger side. The servo cable is routed along the passenger side fuel tank, past the 1 1/4 inch tubing that goes up to the main hood bracket, then past the chain pan to back of carburetor to cable bracket. You should drill correct size to accommodate the swivel cable wire holder. Drill this hole 1 3/4 inch from carburetor shaft or where you would obtain at least 1 1/2 inch travel, which would be full throttle to governor control. Connect reds to 12 volt + and black to ground the blue wire from the governor is connected to pickup coil. The control box or servo is sealed and has blue seals on the case. If you should get moisture into the servo it will short and not function. Your three-year warranty will be void if seals are broken. There is no reason to open the servo unit it has been preset for your machine. This box is loaded with electronic gear. Your wire harness will have two power sources the red with fuse is connected to your load side of your key switch or master switch and the other 12 volt power wire is connected to a switched and fused place in your control panel there are two push buttons and one switch at the end of your harness that will go to your cyclic control black button is to set governor and red is to stop or disengage governor. The switch disarms the control system. The proper way to use the system is after warm up bring your rotor tach up to 100 % and 3 1/2 degrees of collective or just light on skids. At this point you press the black set button for a five count and slowly roll your throttle completely off. The governor will automatically take over and adjust to your tach setting. You may find the engine will want to purge or hunt until it has a load on your blades. This system is designed for cruise. Although you may set the system on the ground and you wouldn't have to touch the throttle until you land on the ground, at this point you push the red stop button and the engine will go to idle. If you wish to disengage the system while flying roll the throttle just past 100% to make sure you have positive throttle then press red stop button and your on manual operation. PLEASE NOTE you may over ride the governor at any time to add more throttle manually. In extreme power shortage you may have to lower collective to milk in more power to stay out of low rotor situations. Turbo charged helicopters have no problems in this area due to surplus power. Once you get used to the system you will be able to engage system and leave it on from take off to landing. This system will reduce your chance of getting into LOW-ROTOR RPM. (CAUTION-CAUTION)- (NEVER-NEVER) USE THE GOVERNOR DURING any kind of AUTOROTATIONS; be a good safe pilot and you will survive to have a good day.
