SERVICING YOUR TILLERTHE IMPORTANCE OF MAINTENANCE
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.
Good 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 unusual conditions, such as sustained
high-load or high-temperature operation or use in dusty conditions
consult your servicing dealer for recommendations applicable to your
individual needs and use.
Remember that your servicing dealer knows your tiller best and is fully
equipped to maintain and repair it.
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.
To ensure the best quality and reliability, use only new, Honda
Genuine parts or their equivalents for repair and replacement.
