SELF-CONTAINED TURF TENDERS
Self-contained Turf Tenders have their own power supply
and hydraulic system. The power supply used is a Honda 11

which draws hydraulic fluid from the reservoir and circulates
the fluid to the drive motors on the Turf Tender.
In addition to following the setup information for trailer-
type Turf Tenders, the following information must also adhered
to.

built into the front side of the reservoir. Fill as required.

required.

plugs on both sides. The gray plug is the dipstick
and is located on the front side of the engine.

Operator’s Manual.
Note: This engine has no Transmission/centrifugal
clutch; therefore, ignore pages 29-30 in the Honda
