CONTROL CABLE ADJUSTMENTS

Select Drive Cable Adjustment
With the engine off, loosen the jam
nut [1] one revolution.
With the Select Drive control released,
TIGHTEN [4] the adjuster by turning
clockwise 1 revolution by hand, and
then pull the lawnmower rearward to
check resistance.
If no wheel resistance exists, repeat
the above procedure until the wheels
lock when pulling rearward. It will
usually take more than 8 turns for the
wheels to lock up.
Next, use the adjuster mark [3] and
LOOSEN [2] the adjuster
counterclockwise 8 complete
revolutions.
Hold the adjuster and tighten the lock
nut against the adjuster. Push the lawnmower forward and pull
backward and check for little or no resistance.
Start the engine to ensure the lawnmower does not move forward
without pushing the Select Drive control.

CUTTING MEANS REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION

If you remove the cutting means for sharpening or replacement, you
will need a torque wrench for installation. Wear heavy gloves to
protect your hands.
CUTTING MEANS SHARPENING: To avoid weakening the cutting
means, or causing imbalance or poor cutting, the cutting means
should be sharpened by trained staff at an authorized Honda dealer.
CUTTING MEANS REPLACEMENT: Use Honda Genuine
replacement cutting means or their equivalent.
Cutting Means Removal
1. Put the throttle lever in the STOP position.
2. Disconnect the spark plug cap. Tilt the mower to the right so the
fuel cap is up. This will help prevent fuel leakage, motor oil seeping
into the air filter, and hard starting.

Cutting Means Installation
1. Clean dirt and grass from around the cutting means mounting
area.
2. Install the cutting means [3] and [4] using the two cutting means
bolts [1] and special washers [2] as shown.
Operating this mower with only one cutting means will
result in an improperly seated cutting means.
Blades thrown from the mower could seriously hurt or kill
someone.
Always use both cutting means as a set.
Be sure to install the special washers with the concave side toward
the cutting means and the convex side toward the head of the bolt.
The cutting means bolts are specially designed for this application
and must not be replaced with other bolts.

3. Tighten the cutting means bolts with a torque wrench [7]. Use a
wooden block [6] to prevent the cutting means from turning.
[7]
49 ~ 59 N•m
Cutting means bolt torque: 49 ~ 59 N·m
If you do not have a torque wrench, have an authorized Honda
dealer tighten the cutting means bolts before you use the mower. If
the cutting means bolts are overtightened, they could break. If the
cutting means bolts are not tightened enough, they could loosen or
come out. In either case, it would be possible for the cutting means
to fly off while you are operating the mower.
