SERVICING YOUR MOWER
Blade Removal and Installation
If you remove the blades, use a torque wrench for installation. Wear
heavy gloves to protect your hands. To avoid weakening the blades or
causing imbalance or poor cutting, the blades should be sharpened by
trained staff at an authorized Honda servicing dealer. If replacing the
blades, use genuine Honda replacement blades or equivalent.

Blade Removal

1. Turn the fuel valve to OFF. Disconnect the spark plug cap, then tilt
the mower to the right side (carburetor side up).
2. Remove the two blade bolts with a 14 mm socket. Use a wooden
block to prevent the blades from turning when removing the bolts.
Remove the blades from the blade holder.
Always use an upper and lower blade.

Blade Installation

1. Clean around the blade holder.
2. Install the blades using the bolts and special washers as shown
[concave side of the special washers toward the blades].
The blade bolts and washers are specially designed for the mower.
Should you ever have to replace them, use only genuine Honda
parts. Otherwise, a blade may become detached from the mower
and cause serious injury.
