OIL LEVEL CHECK
1. To check the oil level, remove the oil filler cap
and wipe the dipstick clean.
2. Insert the dipstick in the oil filler neck, but do not
screw it in. Remove the dipstick and check the oil
level.
3. Add the recommended oil to the upper limit mark
on the dipstick. Do not overfill.
4. Tighten the oil filler cap securely.
OIL CHANGE
1. Check that the fuel tank cap is tightened securely.
2. Remove the oil filler cap. Tilt the engine toward the oil filler cap side and
drain the used oil into a suitable container.
Please dispose of used motor oil in a manner that is compatible with the
environment. We suggest you take used oil in a sealed container to your
local recycling center or service station for reclamation. Do not throw it in
the trash or pour it on the ground or down a drain.
3. Refill with the recommended oil to the upper limit mark on the dipstick.
Check the oil level with the mower on a level surface, and the dipstick fully
inserted but not screwed in.
Oil is a major factor affecting performance and service life. Use 4-stroke
automotive detergent oil.
SAE 10W-30 is recommended for general use. Other viscosities shown in
the chart may be used when the average temperature in your area is
within the recommended range.
The SAE oil viscosity and service classification are given in the API label
on the oil container. Honda recommends that you use API service
category SJ or later oil.
CAUTION
Used engine oil contains substances that have been
identified as carcinogenic.
If repeatedly left in contact with the skin for prolonged
periods, it may cause skin cancer.
Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water as soon as
possible after contact with used engine oil.
