Installation

1. Remove the mulching 

plug when using a 
grass bag.

2. Raise the discharge 

guard and hook the 
grass bag onto the 
mower deck as shown.

Make sure there are no 
grass clippings in the 
hook channel.

3. Release the discharge 

guard to secure the 
grass bag.

Removal

1. Raise the discharge 

guard, grasp the grass 
bag handle, and remove the grass bag.

2. Release the discharge guard.

3. When the grass bag is clear of the discharge guard, you can lift it 

through the handlebar opening, or you can remove it to the rear of 
the mower below the handlebar.

Rear Shield

During normal use, the rear shield is subject to deterioration and 
wear. Remove the grass bag and raise the discharge guard. Check 
the rear shield for cracks or tears. If the rear shield is excessively 
worn, have it replaced by your authorized Honda servicing dealer.

Cutting Height 
Adjustment 

The cutting height figures are 
approximate. The actual 
height of cut grass will vary 
with lawn and soil conditions.

To adjust the cutting height, 
pull each adjustment lever 
toward the wheel, and move it 
into another notch.

Move the adjustment levers in 
the same direction to the 
desired cutting height position.

If you are not sure what 
cutting height to select, start 
with a high setting and check 
the appearance of the lawn 
after mowing a small area. 
Readjust the cutting height if 
necessary.
