BLADES
Inspection
1. Move the fuel valve to the OFF position
the spark plug cap from the spark plug
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 blades
for damage, cracks,
and excessive wear,
rust, or corrosion.
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 excessively
worn, bent, cracked, or otherwise damaged must be replaced. A
worn or damaged blade can break, causing blade pieces to be
thrown from the mower.
NORMAL
WORN
BENT
If a blade is bent, take the lawn mower to an authorized Honda
servicing dealer for inspection.
4. Always use a torque wrench when installing the blades. Check that
the blade bolts are tight.
