6. After installing the blade/blade disc check that it does not interfere with
the housing. If the blade contacts the housing, consult an authorized
Honda servicing dealer.
A bent blade can be the cause of serious personal injury or accident.
If you don't have a torque wrench, have an authorized Honda servicing
dealer tighten the blade setting bolts and the blade disc holder bolt
before you use the mower. If the the blade setting bolts and the blade
disc holder bolt are overtightened, they could break. If the the blade set-
ting bolts and the blade disc holder bolt are not tightened enough, they
could loosen or come out. In either case, it would be possible for the
blade to fly off while you are operating the mower.
