WARNING
A worn, cracked, or damaged blade can break, and pieces
of the damaged blade can become dangerous projectiles.
Thrown objects can cause serious injury.
Inspect the blades regularly, and do not operate the mower
with a worn or damaged blade.
A dull blade can be sharpened, but a blade that is worn out, bent,
cracked, or otherwise damaged must be replaced. A worn or
damaged blade can break, causing blade pieces to be thrown from
the mower.
When a blade needs sharpening or replacement, take the lawn
mower to an authorized Honda dealer. Or, if you have a torque
wrench, you can remove and install the blades yourself.
Check that the blade bolts are tight (page 14).
Engine Oil Level
Check the engine oil level with the engine stopped and the mower on
a level surface.
Use 4-stroke motor oil that meets or exceeds the requirements for API
service category SJ or later. Always check the API SERVICE label on
the oil container to be sure it includes the letters SJ or later.
SAE 10W-30 is recommended
for general use. Other
viscosities shown in the chart
may be used when the average
temperature in your area is
within the indicated range.
NOTICE
• Running the engine with a
low oil level can cause engine damage.
• Using nondetergent oil can shorten the engine's service life, and
using 2-stroke oil can damage the engine.
1. Remove the oil filler
cap/dipstick [1], and wipe
the dipstick clean.
2. Insert the dipstick into the
filler neck. Do not screw it
down. Remove the
dipstick and check the oil
level.
3. If the oil level is near the
low level mark [3], add the
recommended oil to bring
the level up to the high limit
mark [2]. Do not overfill.
4. Install and tighten the filler
cap/dipstick [1] securely.

Fuel
This engine is certified to operate on unleaded petrol with a research
octane rating of 91 or higher.
We recommend refueling after each use to minimize the air present in
the fuel tank.
Refuel in a well-ventilated area before starting the engine. If the
engine has been running, allow it to cool. Never refuel the mower
inside a building where petrol fumes may reach flames or sparks.
You may use regular unleaded petrol containing no more than 10%
ethanol (E10) or 5% methanol by volume. In addition, methanol must
contain cosolvents and corrosion inhibitors. Use of fuels with content
of ethanol or methanol greater than shown above may cause starting
and/or performance problems. It may also damage metal, rubber, and
plastic parts of the fuel system. In addition, ethanol is hygroscopic,
which means it attracts and retains water in the fuel system. Engine
damage or performance problems that result from using a fuel with
percentages of ethanol or methanol greater than shown above are not
covered by warranty.
If your equipment will be used on an infrequent or intermittent basis,
(more than 4 weeks before next use) please refer to the Fuel section
of the STORAGE chapter (page 17) for additional information
regarding fuel deterioration.
Petrol is highly flammable and explosive.
You can be burned or seriously injured when handling fuel.
• Stop the engine and keep heat, sparks, and flame away.
• Handle fuel only outdoors.
• Wipe up spills immediately.
Never use stale or contaminated petrol or an oil/petrol mixture. Avoid
getting dirt or water in the fuel tank.
NOTICE
Fuel can damage paint and plastic. Be careful not to spill fuel when
filling your fuel tank. Damage caused by spilled fuel is not covered
under warranty.
Remove the tank cap [1] and
check the fuel level. Refill the
tank if the fuel level is low.
Refuel carefully to avoid spilling
fuel. Do not overfill; there
should be no fuel in the filler
neck [2].
After refueling, tighten the fuel
tank cap securely.
Move the mower at least 3 meters away from the fueling source and
site before starting the engine.
Fuel Storage Container
Store your gasoline in a clean, plastic, sealed container approved for
fuel storage. Close the vent (if equipped) when not in use, and store
the container away from direct sunlight. If it will take more than 3
months to use the fuel in the container, we suggest adding a fuel
stabilizer to the fuel when you fill the container.
If you have some fuel left in your storage container at the end of the
season, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recommends
adding the gasoline to your vehicle's gas tank
(http://epa.gov/reg5oair/mobile/winter.html).
