PREPARATION AND CHECKS
BEFORE USE
To carry out this series of
checks, place the motor hoe
on stable, level ground with
the engine switched off and
the cap [1] removed from the
spark plug.
ENGINE OIL
CAUTION :
• Make sure you check the oil level with the motor hoe placed on a
horizontal surface and with the engine switched off.
1. Remove the dipstick/oil filler
cap [2] and wipe it.
2. Insert the dipstick into the filler
neck [3] without screwing it, and
then remove it.
3. Check the oil level visible on the
dipstick [4].
4. If the level is low, top up with
recommended oil until reaching
the upper limit [5] on the dipstick.
5. Reinstall the oil filler cap/dipstick.
CAUTION :
• The engine may be seriously damaged if it is run when the oil
level is too low. It is recommended that Honda 4-stroke oil or a
highly detergent engine oil of equivalent quality should be used.
The viscosity chosen should be suitable for the average
temperature in the area where the motor hoe is used.
Choose a suitable oil viscosity for the average temperature in the
region where the motor hoe is used.
CAUTION :
• The engine will be seriously damaged if non-detergent or 2-stroke
engine oil is used.
Do not use a rotating implement with a diameter of more than
230 mm or that is more than 322 mm wide.
Petrol is extremely flammable and, in some circumstances, it is
explosive. Do not smoke and avoid any flames or sparks in the
area where filling is performed and where the fuel is stored.
Do not overfill the fuel tank. (The fuel level must be below the
filter neck). After filling the tank, make sure the fuel tank cap is
screwed correctly and fully in place.
If fuel is spilled, make sure it has dried before starting the
engine.
Avoid repeated or prolonged contact of petrol with the skin and
do not breathe petrol vapours.
KEEP FUEL OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
CHECKING FUEL LEVEL
CAUTION :
• Never use a mixture of oil and petrol.
• Take care not to allow dirt to enter the fuel tank.
• Do not use dirty or contaminated fuel (containing water or dust,
etc.) or fuel that is too old.
Proceed as follows to check the fuel
level:
1. Unscrew the cap [8] and check the
fuel level.
2. Fill the tank [9] if the level is low. The
maximum level has been reached
when fuel comes up to the reference
strip [10].
3. Screw the cap [8] fully in place after
filling.
NOTE:
The use of petrol substitutes is
not recommended as they can be
damaging to the components of the fuel
system.
Fuel capacity:
0,35 l
Use only unleaded gasoline (octane
minimum rate : 86).
CAUTION :
• Do not use gasoline if it is :
- dirty,
- stored for more than 30 days,
- containing alcohol (ethanol or methanol),
- gasoline mixed with oil (2 stroke mixture).
• Do not allow dirt or water to enter to fuel tank.
NOTE:
Any damage or engine performance troubles resulting from
inappropriate or bad quality gasoline usage will not be covered by
warranty.
FUEL CONTAINING ALCOHOL
If you intend to use fuel with alcohol, ensure that its octane number
is at least as high as that recommended by Honda (86). There are
two types of fuel/alcohol mixtures: one contains ethanol and the
other methanol.
Do not use mixtures containing more than 10% ethanol, or fuel
containing methanol (methyl or wood alcohol), which do not contain
cosolvents, or corrosion inhibitors for methanol.
In the case of a mixture containing methanol with addition of
cosolvents and corrosion inhibitors, limit the proportion to 5% of
methanol.
NOTE:
The guarantee does not cover damage caused to the fuel
system or engine performance problems resulting from the use of
fuel containing alcohol. Honda does not give its approval to the use
of fuels containing methyl alcohol since their suitability is not yet
proven.
