Throttle Cable Inspection - Honda HRC216HXA Owner's Manual

SERVICING YOUR LAWN MOWER

THROTTLE CABLE INSPECTION

Throttle cable adjustment is necessary if the throttle lever does not
operate the choke properly.
You can inspect choke operation by observing the movement of the
choke arm, which is located on top of the carburetor.
1. Move the throttle lever to the
CHOKE position. The choke arm
should move counterclockwise
until it contacts the stop post on
the carburetor.
Push the choke arm with your
finger to verify that it has moved
as far as it will go.
2. Move the throttle lever to the
FAST position. The choke arm
should move clockwise until it
contacts the stop post on the
carburetor.
Push the choke arm with your
finger to verify that it has moved
as far as it will go.
3. If the choke arm does not move
all the way to its stop in either
direction, take the mower to an
authorized Honda servicing
dealer. Throttle cable adjustment
involves related control plate
adjustments.
