Honda HRX217HYA - Pushing throttle lever further than "FAST' Indent position?

I've noticed on my three month old HRX217HYA mower that the throttle lever can be pushed beyond the "FAST" indent to the end of the slot. Doing this increases the the engine RPM and of course, the blade speed. I've been doing this while mowing to achieve a better cut but, I'm not sure if I may be over revving the engine.

Is this supposed to happen? Does this mean the engine is not running at the correct rpm when in "FAST" position? Do I need to adjust the cable length and/or carburetor so the "FAST" indent position runs at the same max RPM as at the end of the slot, or should I just run it at the "FAST" indent and leave well enough alone? I've ordered the shop manual and a "Digital Hour Meter Tachometer" so if needed I can make adjustments.

I would specially like to hear from Robert to see what Honda's position is on this.
