Maintenance Schedule
(1) Service more frequently when used in dusty areas.
(2) Change engine oil every 25 hours when used under heavy load or in high outside air temperatures.
(3) These items should be serviced by an authorized Honda servicing dealer unless you have the proper tools and are mechanically
proficient. Refer to the Honda shop manual for service procedures. See “Honda Publications” on page 21 for ordering information.
Failure to follow this maintenance schedule could result in non-warrantable failures.
Blade Inspection
1. Turn the fuel valve OFF (page 3).
2. Disconnect the spark plug cap from the spark plug
(page 14).
3. Tilt the mower to the right side, so the fuel cap side is up.
This will help to prevent fuel leakage and hard starting due
to carburetor flooding.
4. Inspect the blades for damage, cracks, and excessive rust
or corrosion.
