Grass Catcher Cleaning And Replacement; Transporting - Honda HRX537VYE Owner's Manual

Cutting-means Mounting Bolt Inspection
Inspect the cutting-means bolts for any signs of
damage or looseness. If they are damaged,
they must be replaced.
If they appear loose, a torque wrench must be
used to accurately tighten the cutting-means
bolts to the required torque. If you do not have
a torque wrench, take your lawnmower to an
authorized dealer to have the bolts replaced or
tightened.
Use only Honda Genuine cutting-means bolts
and special washers, since they are specifically
designed for this purpose. Replacement part
numbers are on page 18.

GRASS CATCHER CLEANING AND REPLACEMENT

Cleaning
Wash the catcher with a garden hose, and allow it to dry completely
before use; a wet catcher will clog quickly.
Replacement
Replace a worn or damaged catcher with a Honda replacement
catcher or its equivalent.
Removal
1. Unclip the plastic edges [1]
of the catcher [2] from the
frame [3].
2. Remove the catcher from
the frame.
Installation
1. Insert the catcher frame [3] into
the catcher [2], as shown above.
2. Clip the plastic edges [1] of the
catcher onto the frame.

TRANSPORTING

Before Loading
If the engine has been running, allow it to cool for at least 15 minutes
before loading the mower on the transport vehicle. A hot engine and
exhaust system can burn you and can ignite some materials.
Turn the fuel valve to the OFF position. This will prevent carburetor
flooding and reduce the possibility of fuel leakage.

Inspect washers and
bolt heads for

Handlebar Folding
1. Remove the grass catcher. You can place it on top of the engine,
with the catcher opening to the front.
2. Turn the handlebar adjust knobs [1] 90° into the unlock position.
3. Fold handlebar [2] over mower. Ensure the blade control lever
clears the engine when folding the handlebar.
When folding the handlebar, be careful to avoid kinking or pinching
the control cables.

Loading and Unloading
Position the mower so all four wheels are on the bed of the transport
vehicle. Tie the mower down with rope or straps, and block the
wheels. Keep the tie-down rope or straps away from the controls,
adjustment levers, cables, and the carburetor.
NOTICE
To prevent losing control of or damaging the mower, do not use the
drive system when going up or down a loading ramp.
To prevent damaging the drive system, do not engage the clutch
when the mower is rolling backwards.
1. Turn the fuel valve to the OFF position.
2. Use a suitable loading ramp. Adjust the loading ramp so that it is
inclined at an angle of less than 15°. If a loading ramp is not
available, two people should lift the mower on and off the transport
vehicle while keeping the mower level.
