Engine Oil Recommendations; Air Filter Check - Honda FG110 Owner's Manual

Engine Oil Recommendations

Oil is a major factor affecting performance and
service life. Use 4-stroke automotive detergent oil.
SAE 10W-30 is recommended for general use.
Other viscosities shown in the chart may be used
when the average temperature in your area is
within the recommended ranges.
The SAE oil viscosity and service classification are
in the API label on the oil container. Honda
recommends that you use API SERVICE category
SJ (or later) oil with the "starburst" certification mark
displayed on the container.

Air Filter Check

1. Move the choke lever to the CLOSED ()
position to prevent dirt from entering the engine.
2. Squeeze together the air cleaner upper tab at
the top of the air cleaner cover to release it from
its catch, then flip the cover down to remove it.
3. Check the air filter to be sure it is clean and in
good condition.
4. If the air filter is dirty, clean it as described under
Air Filter Cleaning (page 20). Replace the air
filter if it is damaged.
NOTICE
Operating the engine without an air filter, or with
a damaged air filter, will allow dirt to enter the
engine, causing rapid engine wear. This type of
damage is not covered by the DISTRIBUTOR'S
LIMITED WARRANTY (page 39).
5. Align the air filter with the air cleaner base as
shown. Reinstall the air filter by locating the
three air cleaner base pegs into the three air
filter holes. Slide the air filter over the pegs until
it is flush with the air cleaner base.
NOTICE
An improperly installed air filter will allow dirt to
enter the engine, causing rapid engine wear.
Make sure the air filter is properly installed and
flush with the air cleaner base before installing
the air cleaner cover.
6. Reinstall the air cleaner cover by hooking the
two lower tabs on the bottom of the cover and
snapping the upper tab into place.
