Maintenance Precautions - Honda HRM215PDA Harmony Owner's Manual

Maintenance Precautions
Periodic maintenance and adjustments are necessary to keep
your mower in good operating condition. Service and inspect
according to the MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE.
If you do not follow these safety
precautions, you can be
seriously hurt or killed.
Carefully read and follow all
safetv instructions.
Always disconnect the spark plug cap before performing any
maintenance.
The engine and exhaust system become hot enough to burn you
and may cause a fire if flammable materials are nearby. Allow
the engine to cool for at least 15 minutes before maintenance or
indoor storage.
Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive. Refuel outdoors with
the engine stopped. Wipe up spills immediately. Never use
gasoline to clean parts.
To prevent carbon monoxide poisoning, stop the engine before
making any inspection or repair. If you must run the engine, do it
outdoors or provide adequate ventilation. If you start feeling
drowsy, stop the engine immediately and get fresh air.
Use genuine Honda parts or their exact equivalent for
maintenance and repair. Lower quality parts may damage the
mower or reduce its performance.
Keep all nuts, bolts, and screws tight to be sure the equipment is
in safe working order.
Wear heavy gloves to protect your hands when working on the
mower, especially when you work on or near the blades.
