AUGER

Clutch Lever

 

Free Play

Inspection

1. Move the clutch lever 

until you feel resistance 
from the cable. Measure 
the distance as shown.

CLUTCH LEVER 
DISTANCE:

7-1/2 ~ 8 inches
(190 ~ 205 mm)

Adjustment

1. Pull the spring cover up 

to expose the tension 
spring. Change the 
position of either the 
cable or spring on the 
metal plate so the clutch 
lever distance is correct. 

Moving the spring makes 
a 1/4 inch (6 mm) 
change, while moving the 
cable makes a 3/8 inch 
(10 mm) change in the 
length of the cable.

2. Slide the cover back over 

the spring.

Auger Paddle 
Inspection

The paddles are thick, rubber parts bolted to the edges of the auger. 
The paddles are subject to wear, and should be inspected and 
replaced if worn beyond the service limit.

1. Park the snowthrower on a flat, 

level surface. Disconnect the 
spark plug cap and turn the 
fuel valve OFF so the engine 
cannot be accidentally started. 
Tilt the snowthrower back 
enough to raise the auger 
housing.

2. Inspect the paddles on the 

auger and make sure they are in good condition and securely 
attached.

3. Measure the distance 

between the edge of the 
rubber paddle to the edge of 
the metal auger support.

AUGER PADDLE 
SERVICE LIMIT: 
5/8 inch (15 mm)

Auger paddle replacement 
should only be done by a 
servicing Honda 
snowthrower dealer. If the 
paddles are worn out, the scraper blade may also need 
replacement (

page 14

). 

SCRAPER BLADE

The scraper blade wears with normal use and must be replaced when 
it reaches its service limit. The scraper blade thickness and 
adjustment determine the clearance between the rubber paddles and 
the ground. 

Inspection

1. Turn the engine switch and fuel valve to the OFF position and 

disconnect the spark plug cap so the engine cannot be accidentally 
started.

2. Examine the scraper blade and verify it contacts the ground 

evenly. If it does not, adjust the scraper blade. See 

"Scraper blade 

adjustment"

 below.

3. Measure the distance 

between the ground 
and lowest point on the 
rubber paddle on the 
auger. The paddle 
ground clearance 
should be 
1/16 ~ 1/8 inches 
(1 ~ 3 mm).

If the ground clearance 
is not within the 
specification, adjust the 
scraper blade. See 

"Scraper blade 
adjustment" 

below

.

4. Tilt the snowthrower 

back and measure the 
thickness of the scraper 
blade. Replace the 
scraper blade if it is less 
than 1/16 inch (2 mm) 
thick. See 

"Scraper 

blade replacement"

 on 

this page.

Scraper blade adjustment

1.

Turn the engine switch and 
fuel valve to the OFF 
position and disconnect the 
spark plug cap so the 
engine cannot be 
accidentally started. 

2. Tilt the snowthrower 

forward to provide access 
the underside of the 
scraper blade.

3. Loosen (don’t remove) the 

three flange nuts on the 
scraper blade. 

4. Move the scraper blade down slightly. Tighten the self-locking nuts 

and recheck the clearance. 

Repeat the procedure as needed to get the necessary clearance. If 
you cannot set the ground clearance within 1/8 ~ 1/16 inch, 
replace the scraper blade.
