CONTROL CABLE ADJUSTMENTS
Blade Control Cable
Measure free play at the top of the blade control lever [1], while holding the
button down. Free play should be 10 ~ 15 mm. If adjustment is necessary:
1. Loosen the locknuts [2] with a
10 mm wrench, and move the
adjuster [3] up or down as
required.
2. Tighten the locknuts and recheck
free play.
3. Start the engine outdoors, and
operate the blade control lever.
Check that the blade starts when
you push the lever forward and
stops quickly when you release the
lever.
If the blade does not start or stop
as it should, with correct cable
adjustment, take the mower to an
authorized Honda dealer for repair.
