To ensure safe operation l Always make a pre-operation check (pages 16 thru 20) before you start the engine. You may prevent an accident or equipment damage. l Honda snowblowers are designed to give safe and dependable service if operated according to instructions. Read and understand this Owner’s Manual before operating the snowblower. Failure to do so could result in personal injury or equipment damage. l Before operating the snowblower, inspect the area in which you are go- ing to cle

Adjust the snow discharge chute to avoid hitting the operator, bystanderds, windows, and other objects with ejected snow. Stay clear of the snow discharge chute while the engine is running. Children and pets must be kept away from the area of operation to avoid injury from flying debris and contact with the snowblower. To avoid overturning, be ‘careful when changing the direction of the snowblower while operating it on a slope. Do not use the snowblower to remove snow from roofs. The snow

l Gasoline is extremely flammable and is explosive under certain condi- tions. Do not smoke or allow flames or sparks where the snowblower is refueled or where gasoline is stored. Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine stopped. Do not overfill the fuel tank, and make sure the filler cap is closed securely after refueling. l Never run the engine in an enclosed or confined area. Exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas; exposure can cause loss of con- sciousness and may lead

4. PRE-OPERATION CHECK Check the snowblower on level ground with the engine stopped. m To prevent accidental start-up, remove the engine switch key, and disconnect the spark plug cap before performing the pre-operation inspection. Fuel Check the fuel gauge, and refill the tank if the fuel level is low. Refuel carefully to avoid overfilling or spilling fuel. There should be no fuel in the filler neck.

Fuel Recommendation Use gasoline with a pump octane rating of 86 or higher. We recommend unleaded fuel because it 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 rap- ping noise) while operating under heavy loads. This is no cause for concern. If spark knock or pinging occurs

HYDROSTATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID Check the hydrostatic fluid level in the reservoir. Hydrostatic fluid expands and contracts with changes in temperature. The UPPER and LOWER level marks on the reservoir are calibrated for room temperature fluid. It is normal for the fluid level to rise above the UPPER level mark when snowblower operation warms the transmission. When checking the level of cold fluid, below room temperature, refer to the temperature chart for appropriate fluid levels. At te
