Tough to say. General rule of thumb is to make the bottom of the float parallel to the bottom of the carb body (when there is no weight on the float needle valve). However, a more accurate way to check it is with the "wet" level- attach a clear tube to the drain hole, loop it up to above the level of the bowl, fill with fuel, and measure the fuel level from the bottom of the carb body. I believe it's supposed to be 16-19mm below the carb body, but I'm probably wrong. (Yes, I am.)

Check the main page- we have full downloadable manuals that walk you through the whole process.

See page 170 in the manual. 6.5 - 8.5 mm below the bottom edge of the carb body.

The manual is available from the bottom right hand corner of the home page. Then check page 170 and yes, there's an image.
