SERVICING YOUR TILLER

Proper maintenance is essential for safe, economical, and

trouble-free operation. It will also help reduce air pollution.

To help you properly care for your tiller, the following pages include a

maintenance schedule, routine inspection procedures, and simple

maintenance procedures using basic hand tools. Other service tasks

that are more difficult, or require special tools, are best handled by

professionals and are normally performed by a Honda technician or

other qualified mechanic.

The maintenance schedule applies to normal operating conditions. If

you operate your tiller under severe conditions, such as sustained

high-load or high-temperature operation, or use in unusually wet or

dusty conditions, consult your servicing dealer for recommendations

applicable to your individual needs and use.

Remember that an authorized Honda servicing dealer knows your

tiller best and is fully equipped to maintain and repair it.

To ensure the best quality and reliability, use only new, Honda

Genuine parts or their equivalents for repair and replacement.

Maintenance, replacement, or repair of the emission control

devices and systems may be performed by any engine repair

establishment or individual, using parts that are “certified” to

EPA standards.

MAINTENANCE SAFETY

Some of the most important safety precautions follow. However, we

cannot warn you of every conceivable hazard that can arise in

performing maintenance. Only you can decide whether or not you

should perform a given task.

Safety Precautions

• Make sure the engine is off before you begin any maintenance or

repairs. This will eliminate several potential hazards:

 Carbon monoxide poisoning from engine exhaust.

Operate outdoors away from open windows or doors.

 Burns from hot parts.

Let the engine and exhaust system cool before touching.

 Injury from moving parts.

Do not run the engine unless instructed to do so.

• Read the instructions before you begin, and make sure you have

the tools and skills required.

• To reduce the possibility of fire or explosion, be careful when

working around gasoline. Use only a nonflammable solvent, not

gasoline, to clean parts. Keep cigarettes, sparks, and flames away

from all fuel-related parts.

MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE

1. For professional commercial use, log hours of operation to

determine proper maintenance intervals.

2. Service more frequently when used in dusty areas.

3. These items should be serviced by an authorized Honda servicing

dealer, unless you have the proper tools and are mechanically

proficient.

Failure to follow this maintenance schedule could result in

non-warrantable failures.

B WARNING

Improper maintenance, or failure to correct a problem

before operation, can cause a malfunction in which you

can be seriously hurt or killed.

Always follow the inspection and maintenance

recommendations and schedules in this owner’s manual.
