SERVICING YOUR LAWN MOWER

Never refuel the engine inside a building where gasoline fumes may

reach flames or sparks. Keep gasoline away from appliance pilot

lights, barbecues, electric appliances, power tools, etc.

Spilled fuel is not only a fire hazard, it causes environmental damage.

Wipe up spills immediately.

Move at least 10 feet (3 meters) away from the fueling source and site

before starting the engine.

NOTICE

Fuel can damage paint and plastic. Be careful not to spill fuel when

filling your fuel tank. Damage caused by spilled fuel is not covered by

the Distributor’s Limited Warranty (page 72).

Fuel Recommendations

Use unleaded gasoline with a pump octane rating of 86 or higher.

This engine is certified to operate on unleaded gasoline. Unleaded

gasoline produces fewer engine and spark plug deposits and extends

exhaust system life.

Never use stale or contaminated gasoline or an oil/gasoline mixture.

Avoid getting dirt or water in the fuel tank.

Occasionally you may hear light “spark knock” or “pinging” (metallic

rapping noise) while operating under heavy loads. This is no cause for

concern.

If spark knock or pinging occurs at a steady engine speed, under

normal load, change brands of gasoline. If spark knock or pinging

persists, see an authorized Honda servicing dealer.

NOTICE

Running the engine with persistent spark knock or pinging can cause

engine damage.

This is considered misuse, and the Distributor’s Limited Warranty

(page 72) does not cover parts damaged by misuse.

For oxygenated fuel information refer to page 63.
