Unpacking And Assembly - Honda HF2315 Original Instruction

2.2 IDENTIFICATION OF MAIN COMPONENTS
Various main components can be seen on the machine, and these
have the following functions:
1. Cutting deck: this is the guard enclosing the rotating blades.
2. Blades: these are what cut the grass. The wings at the ends
help convey the cut grass towards the collector channel.
3. Collector channel: this is the part connecting the cutting deck
to the grass-catcher.
4. Grass-catcher: as well as collecting the grass cuttings, this is
also a safety element in that it stops any objects drawn up by
the blades from being thrown outside of the machine.
5. Stone-guard or deflector (available as optional part): this
can be fitted in place of the grass-catcher and prevents objects
drawn up by the blades from being thrown outside of the ma-
chine.
6. Engine: this moves the blades and drives the wheels.
7. Battery: provides the energy for starting the engine. Its spe ci -
fi cations and regulations for use are described in a specific man-
ual.
8. Driver seat: this is where the machine operator sits. It has a
sensor for detecting the presence of the operator which is a sa -
fety device.
9. Decals for regulations and safety: give reminders on the
main provisions for working safely, each of which is explained
in chapter 1.
10. Inspection hatch: for access to make several adjustments.
