Looking at the bucket teeth, it must load over?


It does look like it loads over, bet the operator had a sore neck after a shift on that.

Is that the distance between the calibration mark and the spot face when the screw on the governor arm is just touching the end of the rack spindle?

If you go on The David Cornwallis site, PH engines, work shop manual, page 3.12 onwards all the info is there. I've done them myself PH2 but memories a bit hazy now. Hope this helps.
