how do you adjust the valves on an os48?

Never seen the inside of one (I'm assuming it is a FS-48), but the parts list ( http://www.osengines.com/parts/xr35800.html ) does not list shims so it is probably a simple wrench adjustment.

I'd contact the folks below and either get a copy of the manual or at least ask for the valve clearances. Be a good start.


I've lost the manual for my OS engine. How can I replace it?

Adjust the valves .002" to .004" with a feeler gauge
