THE IMPORTANCE OF MAINTENANCE

Good maintenance is essential for safe, economical, and trouble-free
operation. It will also help reduce air pollution.
To help you properly care for your snow blower, the following pages
include a maintenance schedule, routine inspection procedures, and
simple maintenance procedures using basic hand tools. Other service
tasks that are more difficult, or require special tools, are best handled
by professionals and are normally performed by a Honda technician
or other qualified mechanic.
The maintenance schedule applies to normal operating conditions. If
you operate your snow blower under unusual conditions, consult your
servicing dealer for recommendations applicable to your individual
needs and use. Remember that your servicing dealer knows your
snow blower best and is fully equipped to maintain and repair it.
To ensure the best quality and reliability, use only new, Honda
Genuine parts or their equivalents for repair or replacement.
Maintenance, replacement, or repair of the emission control devices
and systems may be performed by any engine repair establishment or
