Throttle Cable Inspection

Verify the throttle trigger operates smoothly, releases properly, and

the throttle cable is undamaged. If there is visible damage, or if the

throttle lever does not operate smoothly or release properly, take your

tiller to your authorized Honda servicing dealer.

Check the freeplay at the end of

the throttle lever.

If adjustment is needed, see the

Throttle Cable Adjustment

procedure below.

Throttle Cable Adjustment

1. Loosen the locknuts with

a 10 mm wrench, and

move the adjuster in or

out as required.

Throttle Lever Freeplay:

3/16 ~ 5/16 in (5 ~ 8 mm)

2. Tighten the locknuts and

recheck throttle lever

freeplay.

Carburetor Adjustment

A tachometer is required to

adjust the idle speed. If you

do not have one, take your

tiller to an authorized Honda

servicing dealer to perform

idle speed adjustment.

1. Start the engine outdoors,

and allow it to warm up to

normal operating

temperature.

2. Turn the throttle stop screw to obtain a stable idle, below the speed

at which the tiller tines begin to turn.

Standard Idle Speed: 3,100 ± 200 rpm

REFUELING

Honda recommends using a No-Spill

gas can, which meets the

demanding requirements of the California Air Resources Board

(page 20).

This engine is certified to operate on unleaded gasoline with a pump

octane rating of 86 or higher.

Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine stopped. If the engine

has been running, allow it to cool first. Never refuel the engine inside a

building where gasoline fumes may reach flames or sparks.

You may use regular unleaded gasoline containing no more than 10%

ethanol (E10) or 5% methanol by volume. In addition, methanol must

contain cosolvents and corrosion inhibitors. Use of fuels with content

of ethanol or methanol greater than shown above may cause starting

and/or performance problems. It may also damage metal, rubber, and

plastic parts of the fuel system. Engine damage or performance

problems that result from using a fuel with percentages of ethanol or

methanol greater than shown above are not covered by warranty.

If your equipment will be used on an infrequent or intermittent basis,

please refer to the fuel section of the STORAGE chapter (page 15) for

additional information regarding fuel deterioration.

Never use stale or contaminated gasoline or an oil/gasoline mixture.

Avoid getting dirt or water in the fuel tank.

1. To refuel, set the tiller

on level ground and

remove the fuel tank

cap.

2. Fill the tank with

gasoline to the

shoulder of the filler

neck.

Refuel carefully to

avoid spilling fuel. Do

not overfill.

3. After refueling,

tighten the fuel tank

cap securely.

Move the tiller at least 10 feet (3 meters) away from the fueling source

and site before starting the engine.

NOTICE

Fuel can damage paint and plastic. Be careful not to spill fuel when

filling your fuel tank. Damage caused by spilled fuel is not covered by

the DISTRIBUTOR’S LIMITED WARRANTY (page 21).
