Components

INITIAL SERVICING

The engine (Figure 3) must be checked for proper lubrication and filled with fuel prior to operation. Refer to the Honda manufacturers engine manual for instructions and details for operation and servicing.

1. Fuel Filler Cap – Remove this cap to add unleaded gasoline to the fuel tank. Make sure cap is tightened securely. DO NOT over fill.

DANGER - Explosive Fuel

Adding fuel to the tank should be done only when the engine is stopped and has had an opportunity to cool down. In the event of a fuel spill, DO NOT attempt to start the engine until the fuel residue has been completely wiped up, and the area surrounding the engine is dry.

2. Throttle Lever – Used to adjust engine RPM speed (lever advanced forward SLOW, lever back toward operator FAST).

3. Engine ON/OFF Switch – ON position permits engine

 

starting, OFF position stops engine operations.

4.

Recoil Starter (pull rope) – Manual-starting method. Pull

 

the starter grip until resistance is felt, then pull briskly and

 

smoothly.

5.

Fuel Valve Lever – OPEN to let fuel flow, CLOSE to stop

 

the flow of fuel.

6.

Choke Lever – Used in the starting of a cold engine, or in

 

cold weather conditions. The choke enriches the fuel

 

mixture.

 

7.

Air Cleaner – Prevents dirt and other debris from entering

 

the fuel system. Remove wing-nut on top of air filter

 

cannister to gain access to filter element.

 

 

Operating the engine without an air

 

NOTE

filter, with a damaged air filter, or a

 

filter in need of replacement will

 

 

 

 

allow dirt to enter the engine,

 

 

causing rapid engine wear.

8.

Spark Plug – Provides spark to the ignition system. Set

 

spark plug gap to 0.6 - 0.7 mm (0.028 - 0.031 inch) Clean

 

spark plug once a week.

9.

Muffler – Used to reduce noise and emissions.

CAUTION - Burn Hazard

Engine components can generate extreme heat.To prevent burns, DO NOT touch these areas while the engine is running or immediately after operating. NEVER operate the engine with the muffler removed.

10. Fuel Tank – Holds unleaded gasoline. For additional information refer to engine owner's manual.
