BLADE REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
If you have removed the blade assembly, always use a torque wrench to
reinstall. Wear heavy gloves to protect your hands. To avoid weakening the
blades or cause imbalance or poor cutting, the blades should be sharpened by
trained staff at an authorised Honda servicing dealer. If you are replacing the
blades, use Honda genuine replacement blades or equivalent.
Removal:
1. Turn the fuel valve to the OFF
position.
2. Disconnect the spark plug cap,
then tilt the mower to the right
side, so the carburetor side is up.
3. Hold the blade disc firmly and
remove the blade disc holder bolt.
Set a flat blade screwdriver at the
engine's bolt to prevent the blade
disc from turning when removing
the blade disc holder bolt.
