Checking The Air Cleaner; Checking Cutting Means Condition; Adjusting Cutting Height - Honda HRN536C Bedienungsanleitung

Fuel Storage Container
Store your petrol 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.

CHECKING THE AIR CLEANER

Remove the cover [1]. Make
sure the filter [2] is clean and in
good condition. A dirty air filter
will restrict air flow to the
carburetor, reducing engine
performance. Refer to page 11
for air cleaner service.
CHECKING CUTTING MEANS
CONDITION
1. Move the fuel valve to the OFF position (page 9) and disconnect the
spark plug cap from the spark plug (page 12).
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.

EXCESSIVELY 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.

CRACKED
WARNING
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 13).

ADJUSTING CUTTING HEIGHT

There are two cutting height adjustment levers found on
the left-hand side of the lawn mower. The lever [1] on the
left front wheel adjusts the height of both front wheels,
and the lever [2] on the left rear wheel adjusts the height for both rear
wheels. Both levers can be adjusted to one of seven settings. The actual
height of cut grass will vary with lawn and soil conditions.
Be sure the engine is not running when adjusting the cutting height.
Move the front and rear adjustment levers to the same position, forward
for tall grass and rearward for short grass.
Check the cutting-means enclosure cutting height settings, and be sure
that both adjustment levers [1] [2] are set to the same cutting height
position.
To adjust the cutting height, move the rear cutting height adjustment
B3 B5
lever first. Grasp the handlebar and lift the mower up slightly, and then

pull the adjustment lever toward the wheel and move it into the desired
height. Adjust the front cutting height adjustment lever to match the rear
height setting.
If you are not sure what cutting height to select, start with a high setting
and check the appearance of the lawn after mowing a small area. Then
readjust the cutting height if necessary.
Consult a local nursery or lawn and
garden center for cutting height
recommendations and advice
about specific types of grasses and
growing conditions in your area.
If you look closely, you'll see that
most grass has stems and leaves. If you
cut off the leaves, you'll scalp the lawn.
Let the grass recover between
mowings. Your mower will work better,
and your lawn will look better.
If your grass gets too tall, cut it once at
the highest cutting height setting, and then mow again in 2 or 3 days.
Don't take off more than one third of total grass height in any one
mowing, or brown patches may develop.
