| Subject: | M14P prop governor rigging |
Looking for a little advise... I,ve installed an M14 on my CJ and was check
ing the initial rigging before flight.- The M14 manual states rig-the P
rop control in max pitch with the prop governor full clockwise, unloading t
he spring.- Without backing off the max pitch stop screws only gives me a
bout 80%.- If I rig it so I can achieve 100%, then I dont have enough mov
ement to increase pitch.- I guess the one unknown is this...- When the
book states, "rig the governor in max pitch with the control in full max pi
tch."- Should I back out the max pitch stop all the way, then rig accordi
ngly or is there a bigger secret not stated?-
I have verified that the governor does work and will hole rpm at a given se
tting.
Thanks for the help in advance.

Larry;
You are dealing with a CJ6 throttle quadrant and a CJ6 governor stop plate. Here
is the procedure:
1. Screw the low RPM (high pitch) stop screw all the way IN.
2. Rotate the governor control shaft full clockwise and install the control arm
just short of touching the stop screw.
3. Ensure that your propellor ( stock 2 blade V530??) is correctly set to a low
pitch angle of 14.5 degs +/- 0.1 degs. ( 6 min. - book shows 10 min. but you
can do better)
4. Follow the manual procedure for setting the high RPM (low pitch) stop screw
. In this process ensure that the final setting provides a 1/8 to 1/4 " bounce
back of both prop control levers. This guarantees that the governor stop is
reached before you run out of quadrant travel and may require adjustment of linkage
in both cockpits.
You will not be able to duplicate that at the low RPM (aft) end. Don't worry about
it, just be sure you get all available travel in both cockpits.
5. After test flights and final adjustment for 2900 TO RPM check the pull down
from 2050 RPM to full high pitch ( follow procedure in the manual). If this goes
below the 1563 RPM specified it may be adjusted by turning out the low RPM
screw.
If you run into any problems contact me.
Have fun;
Walt

Looking for a little advise... I,ve installed an M14 on my CJ and
was checking the initial rigging before flight. The M14 manual states rig
the Prop control in max pitch with the prop governor full clockwise, unloading
the spring. Without backing off the max pitch stop screws only gives me about
80%. If I rig it so I can achieve 100%, then I dont have enough movement to
increase pitch. I guess the one unknown is this... When the book states, "rig
the governor in max pitch with the control in full max pitch." Should I back
out the max pitch stop all the way, then rig accordingly or is there a bigger
secret not stated?
I have verified that the governor does work and will hole rpm at
a given setting.
Thanks for the help in advance.
