SERVICING YOUR LAWN MOWER
52
REPLACING THE FUSE (HRX217HMA ONLY)The electric starter circuit and battery are protected by a 40 ampere
fuse. If the fuse burns out, the electric starter will not operate. The
engine can be started manually if the fuse burns out.
1. Remove the battery cover by depressing the tabs located on the
sides and releasing the tab on top of the battery cover
(see page 50).
2. Locate the fuse case above the battery.
3. Remove and inspect the fuse. If it is burned out, install the spare
40 ampere fuse provided with the mower as shown.
NOTICE
Never use a fuse with a rating other than 40 amperes. Serious
damage to the electrical system or a fire can result.
If a frequent fuse failure occurs, it usually indicates a short circuit or an
overload in the electrical system. Take the mower to an authorized
Honda servicing dealer for repair.
