Exactly where to look depends heavily on the model and type number, but somewhere in the tangled mess of linkage and springs that are on that control plate, you will find the governor control arm. This is usually about 3-5 inches long, with holes along its length, a rod on one end, and a pinch bolt on the other. Remove the pinch bolt. The governor is now free. You will still need some sort of throttle control, because now the governor spring will just lock the throttle wide open. Use old bicycle brake cable, maybe. It's easily rigged. Incidentally, this modification is gauranteed to destroy the engine.
