Drive motor control protection system
This snow thrower is designed to drive with the motor power. When an
excessive load is applied to the motor, which depends on an operation
condition of the snow thrower, the protection circuit is armed making the drive
control warning indicator (orange) blink and possibly slowing down or stopping
the snow thrower.
If this symptom occurs, release the drive clutch lever and stop the work. Keep
the engine switch in the ON position and wait until the drive control warning
indicator (orange) does not blink. If the drive control warning indicator (orange)
goes off, it indicates that the snow thrower has been restored to its normal
condition and you can continue clearing snow.
Note that the protection system functions frequently if the motor is under an
excessive load. Adjust the load to a proper level.
The snow thrower might be faulty if the engine does not restart or the drive
control warning indicator (orange) blinks when restarting the engine. Move the
snow thrower to a safe place by removing the wheel pins from the tracks and
check for the trouble by referring to the symptom-to-troubleshooting table (see
pages 106 and 107). Have your authorized Honda snow thrower dealer check
and repair your snow thrower if necessary.
See page 118 for wheel pin removal.
