Blade Installation
B
The blade can cause serious injury. Disconnect the spark plug
cap to prevent any possibility
of accidental starting.
1. Clean dirt and grass from the blade mounting area.
2. Install the blade holder and blade.
NOTE:
l
Be sure the blade is positioned right side up (rear edges turn upward;
center hole rim projects downward). If the blade is installed upside down,
the edges cannot cut properly.
i
l
The blade bolts are specially designed for this application and must not
be replaced with any other bolts.
3. Tighten the blade bolts with a torque wrench. Use a wooden block to prevent
the blade from turning when tightening the bolts. If you do not have a torque
wrench, have an authorized Honda lawn mower dealer tighten the blade
bolts.
