BLADES

Inspection

1. Move the fuel valve to the 

OFF position (page 6) and 
disconnect the spark plug cap 
from the spark plug (page 11).

2. Tilt the mower to the right, so 

that the air cleaner side is up. 
This will help to prevent fuel 
leakage and hard starting.

3. Inspect the blades for wear 

and damage.

 

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.

If the blades are found to be bent, take the lawn mower to an 
authorized Honda servicing dealer for inspection.

4. A torque wrench must always be used when installing the blades. 

Check that the blade bolts are tight (page 9).

Blade Removal and Installation

If you remove the blades for sharpening or replacement, you will need 
a torque wrench for installation. Wear heavy gloves to protect your 
hands.

BLADE SHARPENING: To avoid weakening the blades, or causing 
imbalance or poor cutting, the blades should be sharpened by trained 
staff at an authorized Honda servicing dealer.

BLADE REPLACEMENT: Use genuine Honda replacement blades or 
their equivalent (page 18).

Before blade removal, turn the fuel valve OFF. Disconnect the spark 
plug cap, then tilt the mower to the right side, so that the air cleaner 
side is up. This will help to prevent fuel leakage and hard starting due 
to carburetor flooding.

Removal

Remove the two blade bolts with a 14 mm (6 sided) wrench or 
socket. Use a wooden block to prevent the blades from turning 
when removing the bolts. Remove the blades.

Installation    

1. Clean dirt and grass from around the blade mounting area.

2. Install the blades using the two blade bolts and special washers as 

shown. Be sure to install the special washers with the concave side 
toward the blades and the convex side toward the bolt head. 

The blade bolts and washers are specially designed for this 
application. When replacing bolts and washers, use only genuine 
Honda replacement parts.

3. Tighten the blade bolts with a torque wrench. Use a wooden block 

to prevent the blades from turning when tightening the bolts.

Blade bolt torque:

 36 ~ 43 ft-lb (49 ~ 59 N·m)

If you do not have a torque wrench, have an authorized Honda 
servicing dealer tighten the blade bolts before you use the mower. 
If the blade bolts are overtightened, they could break. If the blade 
bolts are not tightened enough, they could loosen or come out. In 
either case, it would be possible for the blades to fly off while you 
are operating the mower.

 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 worn or damaged blades.
