CHECK YOUR MOWER
Blades
1. Move the throttle lever to the
STOP position.
2. Move the fuel valve to the OFF
position.
3. Disconnect the spark plug cap
from the spark plug.
4. Tilt the mower to the right, so
the carburetor side is up. This
will help to prevent fuel leakage
and hard starting.
5. Inspect the blades [1] for wear
and damage.
NORMAL
A dull blade can be sharpened, but a blade that is worn out, bent, cracked, or
otherwise damaged must be replaced. A worn or damaged blade can break,
causing blade pieces to be thrown from the mower.
When a blade needs sharpening or replacement take the lawn mower to an
authorized Honda dealer. Or, if you have a torque wrench, you can remove
and install the blades yourself (pages 53–54).
Check that the blade bolts [2] are tight (page 54).
