engine to be hard to start or not start at all. If contamination does occur, the air filter will have to be replaced.

1.Refer to Engine Manual for proper oil specifications, procedures and proper service intervals.

2.For simplest/cleanest oil change, loosen lower handle nuts. Remove two of the four bolts and fold

handles. Stand mower up on lower handle brackets as shown in Figure 3.1A. Drain oil through dipstick tube into a container. Allow sufficient time for all oil to drain.

3.Alternate Oil Drain: Procedure: The Honda engines are equipped with oil fill caps. See Figure 3.1.B. Remove oil fill cap, tip machine to drain oil. Allow sufficient time for all oil to drain. Reinstall cap and tighten securely.
