CLIP DIRECTOR LEVER
The Clip Director can be adjusted to either the CATCH or MULCH
position to achieve the desired mowing results.
Adjust the Clip Director lever to
either the catch (shutter door
fully open) or mulch (shutter
door fully closed) (page 8).
To adjust the Clip Director,
release the lock by pulling it
away from the mower toward
the end of the lever, and then
move the lever to the desired
position. Release the lock and
allow it to snap into the groove.
Some grass accumulation in the
discharge opening is normal
when the Clip Director is in the
MULCH position. To remove this grass, close the discharge guard, set
the Clip Director to the CATCH position, engage the cutting means
control lever, and start the engine.
If the Clip Director is difficult to move or the lever will not lock fully:
• With the engine OFF, lift the discharge guard and remove the grass
clippings from around the shutter door.
• With a garden hose and nozzle, spray around and under the Clip
Director lever and cover assembly to remove the grass clippings.
PRE-OPERATION CHECKS
CHECK YOUR LAWN
For your safety and for the safety of others, always inspect the area
before mowing.
Objects
Anything that can be picked up by the cutting means and thrown is a
potential hazard to you and others. Look for things like stones, sticks,
bones, toys, and wire. Remove them from the mowing area.
People and Pets
People and animals near the mowing area can move into your path or
into a position where they could be struck by thrown objects. Clear the
area of people, especially children, and pets. Their safety is your
responsibility.
Lawn
Check the length and condition of the grass, so that you will know
what cutting height and mowing speed to use.
Avoid mowing wet grass. Not only will wet grass clog your mower
deck and collect in clumps on the lawn, it also gives poor traction,
increasing your risk of losing your footing.

CHECK YOUR MOWER
Cutting Means
1. Move the fuel valve to the OFF position (page 5) and disconnect
the spark plug cap from the spark plug (page 13).
2. Tilt the mower to the right so the fuel cap is up. This will help
prevent fuel leakage, motor oil seeping into the air filter, and hard
starting.
3. Inspect the cutting means [1] and cutting-means bolts [2] for
damage, cracks, and excessive wear, rust, or corrosion.
NORMAL WORN

A worn, cracked, or damaged cutting means can break,
and pieces of the damaged cutting means can become
dangerous projectiles.
Thrown objects can cause serious injury.
Inspect the cutting means regularly, and do not operate the
mower with a worn or damaged cutting means.
A dull cutting means can be sharpened, but a cutting means that is
worn out, bent, cracked, or otherwise damaged must be replaced. A
worn or damaged cutting means can break, causing cutting means
pieces to be thrown from the mower.
When a cutting means needs sharpening or replacement, take the
lawnmower to an authorized Honda dealer. Or, if you have a torque
wrench, you can remove and install the cutting means yourself.
Check that the cutting means bolts are tight (page 14).
