CONTROL CABLE ADJUSTMENTS

Flywheel Brake Cable Adjustment
Measure the free play at the top of the lever. Free play should be
1-3/16 ~ 1-3/8 in (30 ~ 35 mm). If adjustment is necessary:
1. Loosen the lock nuts with a 10 mm wrench, and move the adjuster
up or down as required.
2. Tighten the lock nuts and recheck free play.
3. Start the engine outdoors. Move the throttle to FAST. Release the
flywheel brake lever; the engine should stop quickly.
If the flywheel brake did not operate properly with the correct cable
adjustment, take the mower to an authorized Honda servicing
dealer for repair.
