SETTING UP YOUR MOWER
Unpacking
Remove all the cardboard from around the handlebar.
Handlebar Setup
1. With the handlebar adjust knobs in the unlocked position, depress
the blade control lever and raise the handlebar into the mowing
position.
2. Align the adjust knobs with one of the three holes on the handle
stay. Setting the adjust knobs in the lowest holes raises the
handlebar to its highest position, and setting the adjust knobs in
the highest holes lowers the handlebar to its lowest position.
3. Turn the adjusting knobs 90 degrees into the lock position, and the
pins will spring into the holes and lock into position.
Grass Bag Assembly
1. Assemble the grass bag frame by pulling the support legs outward
and sliding them into the eyelets as shown.
2. Install the assembled frame into the fabric grass bag, keeping the
bag frame handle exposed.
3. Install the plastic clips over the bag frame as shown.
4. Lift the discharge guard and install the grass bag.
Engine Oil
The mower is shipped
WITHOUT OIL
in the
engine.
A bottle of oil is included in
the box with your mower.
Add the entire contents of
the oil bottle into the oil filler
opening.
All Honda engines are run at
the factory prior to
packaging. Most of the oil is
removed prior to shipment;
however, some oil remains
in the engine. The amount of
oil left in the engine varies.
If not using the supplied oil,
add enough SAE 10W-30
API service category SJ or
later oil to bring the oil level
between the upper and
lower limit marks on the dipstick as shown.
Do not overfill the engine with oil. If the engine is overfilled, the excess
oil may get transferred to the air cleaner housing and air filter.
After filling the engine with oil, remove the hang tag near the recoil
starter grip that says “
The engine has no oil. A container of oil is in the
shipping box
.”
