Checking Engine Oil Level; Selecting The Cutting Mode - Honda HRN536C Bedienungsanleitung

CHECKING ENGINE OIL LEVEL

The mower is shipped WITHOUT OIL in the engine.
Add enough SAE 5W-30, 10W-30 API service category SJ or later oil to
bring the oil level between the upper limit [2] and lower limit [3] marks on
the dipstick [1] as shown.
Do not overfill the engine with oil. If the engine is overfilled, the excess
oil may get transferred to the air cleaner housing and air filter.
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 5W-30, 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.
Lubrication oil specifications
necessary to maintain the
performance of the emissions
control system: Honda genuine oil.
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.

SELECTING THE CUTTING MODE

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 7).
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.
NOTICE
Always turn the engine off and disconnect the spark plug cap before lifting the
discharge guard to view or clean around the sliding door. This will prevent
contact with the rotating cutting means and prevent objects from being
thrown into the discharge chute.
Some grass accumulation in the discharge opening is normal when the Clip
Director is fully closed. To remove this grass, close the discharge guard, fully
open the Clip Director, and start the engine.
If a high resistance is noticed when moving the Clip Director lever from
side-to-side, excessive grass may have built up on top of the sliding door.
Mulching
