Before Loading; Loading And Unloading - Honda HR215HMA Owner's Manual

TRANSPORTING

BEFORE LOADING

If the engine has been running, allow it to cool for at least 15 minutes
before loading the mower on the transport vehicle. A hot engine and
exhaust system can burn you and can ignite some materials.
1. Remove the grass bag.
2. Move the throttle lever to the STOP position, and on HR215HMA
models turn the engine switch to the OFF postion.
3. Turn the fuel valve to the OFF position. This will prevent carburetor
flooding and reduce the possibility of fuel leakage.

LOADING AND UNLOADING

If a suitable loading ramp is not available, two people should lift the
mower on and off the transport vehicle while holding the mower level.
Position the mower so all four wheels are on the bed of the transport
vehicle. Tie the mower down with rope or straps, and block the
wheels. Keep the tie-down rope or straps away from the controls,
adjustment levers, cables, and the carburetor.
The handlebar can be folded so the mower will take up less space
(see page 77).
