BEFORE OPERATION CHECKS

IS YOUR ENGINE READY TO GO?

For your safety, to ensure compliance with environmental

regulations, and to maximize the service life of your equipment, it is

very important to take a few moments before you operate the

engine to check its condition. Be sure to take care of any problem

you find, or have your servicing dealer correct it, before you operate

the engine.

Before beginning your pre-operation checks, be sure the engine is

level and the engine switch is in the OFF position.

Always check the following items before you start the engine:

Check the General Condition of the Engine

1. Look around and underneath the engine for signs of oil or

gasoline leaks.

2. Remove any excessive dirt or debris, especially around the

muffler and recoil starter.

3. Look for signs of damage.

4. Check that all shields and covers are in place, and all nuts, bolts,

and screws are tightened.

Check the Engine

1. Check the fuel level (see page 8). Starting with a full tank will

help to eliminate or reduce operating interruptions for refueling.

2. Check the engine oil level (see page 9). Running the engine with

a low oil level can cause engine damage.

The Oil Alert system (applicable types) will automatically stop

the engine before the oil level falls below safe limits. However, to

avoid the inconvenience of an unexpected shutdown, always

check the engine oil level before startup.

3. Check the reduction case oil level on applicable types (see page

9). Oil is essential to reduction case operation and long life.

4. Check the air filter element (see page 10). A dirty air filter

element will restrict air flow to the carburetor, reducing engine

performance.

5. Check the equipment powered by this engine.

Review the instructions provided with the equipment powered

by this engine for any precautions and procedures that should

be followed before engine startup.

Improperly maintaining this engine, or failure to

correct a problem before operation, can cause a

malfunction in which you can be seriously hurt or

killed.

Always perform a pre-operation inspection before

each operation, and correct any problem.

OPERATION

SAFE OPERATING PRECAUTIONS

Before operating the engine for the first time, please review the

SAFETY INFORMATION section on page 2 and the BEFORE

OPERATION CHECKS on page 4.

For your safety, do not operate the engine in an enclosed area such

as a garage. Your engine’s exhaust contains poisonous carbon

monoxide gas that can collect rapidly in an enclosed area and cause

illness or death.

Review the instructions provided with the equipment powered by

this engine for any safety precautions that should be observed with

engine startup, shutdown, or operation.

Do not operate the engine on slopes greater than 20° (36%).

STARTING THE ENGINE

1. Move the fuel valve lever to the ON position.

2. To start a cold engine, move the choke lever to the CLOSED

position.

To restart a warm engine, leave the choke lever in the OPEN

position.

Some engine applications use a remote-mounted choke control

rather than the engine-mounted choke lever shown here. Refer

to the instructions provided by the equipment manufacturer.

SERVICING YOUR ENGINE

THE IMPORTANCE OF MAINTENANCE

Good maintenance is essential for safe, economical, and

trouble-free operation. It will also help reduce pollution.

To help you properly care for your engine, the following pages

include a maintenance schedule, routine inspection procedures, and

simple maintenance procedures using basic hand tools. Other

service tasks that are more difficult, or require special tools, are

best handled by professionals and are normally performed by a

Honda technician or other qualified mechanic.

The maintenance schedule applies to normal operating conditions.

If you operate your engine under severe conditions, such as

sustained high-load or high-temperature operation, or use in

unusually wet or dusty conditions, consult your servicing dealer for

recommendations applicable to your individual needs and use.

Maintenance, replacement, or repair of the emission control

devices and systems may be performed by any engine repair

establishment or individual, using parts that are ‘‘certified’’ to EPA

standards.

MAINTENANCE SAFETY

Some of the most important safety precautions follow. However,

we cannot warn you of every conceivable hazard that can arise in

performing maintenance. Only you can decide whether or not you

should perform a given task.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

• Make sure the engine is off before you begin any maintenance or

repairs. To prevent accidental startup, disconnect the spark plug

cap. This will eliminate several potential hazards:

–Carbon monoxide poisoning from engine exhaust.

Operate outside, away from open windows or doors.

–Burns from hot parts.

Let the engine and exhaust system cool before touching.

–Injury from moving parts.

Do not run the engine unless instructed to do so.

• Read the instructions before you begin, and make sure you have

the tools and skills required.

• To reduce the possibility of fire or explosion, be careful when

working around gasoline. Use only a non-flammable solvent, not

gasoline, to clean parts. Keep cigarettes, sparks and flames away

from all fuel related parts.

Remember that an authorized Honda servicing dealer knows your

engine best and is fully equipped to maintain and repair it.

To ensure the best quality and reliability, use only new Honda

Genuine parts or their equivalents for repair and replacement.

Improper maintenance, or failure to correct a problem

before operation, can cause a malfunction in which

you can be seriously hurt or killed.

Always follow the inspection and maintenance

recommendations and schedules in this owner’s

manual.

Failure to properly follow maintenance instructions

and precautions can cause you to be seriously hurt or

killed.

Always follow the procedures and precautions in this

owner’s manual.

engine has been running, allow it to cool first. Never refuel the

engine inside a building where gasoline fumes may reach flames or

sparks.

You may use unleaded gasoline containing no more than 10%

ethanol (E10) or 5% methanol by volume. In addition, methanol

must contain cosolvents and corrosion inhibitors. Use of fuels with

content of ethanol or methanol greater than shown above may

cause starting and/or performance problems. It may also damage

metal, rubber, and plastic parts of the fuel system. Engine damage

or performance problems that result from using a fuel with

percentages of ethanol or methanol greater than shown above are

not covered under the Warranty.

If your equipment will be used on an infrequent or intermittent

basis, please refer to the fuel section of the STORING YOUR

ENGINE chapter (see page 13) for additional information regarding

fuel deterioration.

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

Avoid getting dirt or water in the fuel tank.

Fuel can damage paint and some types of plastic. Be careful not to

spill fuel when filling your fuel tank. Damage caused by spilled fuel

is not covered under the Distributor’s Limited Warranty. Move at

least 1 meter (3 feet) away from the fueling source and site before

starting the engine.

1. With the engine stopped and on a level surface, remove the fuel

filler cap and check the fuel level. Refill the tank if the fuel level

is low.

Cleaning

Dual-Filter Element Types

1. Remove the wing nut from the air

cleaner cover, and remove the

cover.

2. Remove the wing nut from the air

filter, and remove the filter.

3. Remove the foam filter element

from the paper filter element.

4. Inspect both air filter elements,

and replace them if they are

damaged. Always replace the

paper air filter element at the

scheduled interval (see page 7).

5. Clean the air filter elements if they are to be reused.

Paper filter element: Tap the filter element several times on a

hard surface to remove dirt, or blow compressed air [not

exceeding 207 kPa (2.1 kgf/cm , 30 psi)] through the filter

element from the inside. Never try to brush off dirt; brushing will

force dirt into the fibers.

Foam filter element: Clean in warm soapy water, rinse, and allow

to dry thoroughly. Or clean in non-flammable solvent and allow

to dry. Dip the filter element in clean engine oil, and then

squeeze out all excess oil. The engine will smoke when started

if too much oil is left in the foam.

6. CYCLONE TYPE ONLY: Remove the three pan-head screws from

the precleaner cap, then remove the cyclone housing and air

guide. Wash the parts with water, dry them thoroughly, and

reassemble them.

Be sure to install the air guide as shown in the illustration.

Install the cyclone housing so the air intake tab fits into the

SPARK ARRESTER (applicable types)

In Europe and other countries where the machinery directive 2006/

42/EC is enforced, this cleaning should be done by your servicing

dealer.

The spark arrester may be standard or an optional part, depending

on the engine type. In some areas, it is illegal to operate an engine

without a spark arrester. Check local laws and regulations. A spark

arrester is available from authorized Honda servicing dealers.

The spark arrester must be serviced every 100 hours to keep it

functioning as designed.

If the engine has been running, the muffler will be hot. Allow it to

cool before servicing the spark arrester.

Spark Arrester Removal

1. Remove the air cleaner (see page 11).

2. Remove the two 4 mm screws from the exhaust deflector, and

then remove the deflector and muffler guide (applicable types).

3. Remove the four 5 mm screws from the muffler protector and

remove the muffler protector.

4. Remove the 4 mm screw from the spark arrester, and remove

the spark arrester from the muffler.

Spark Arrester Cleaning & Inspection

HELPFUL TIPS & SUGGESTIONS

STORING YOUR ENGINE

Storage Preparation

Proper storage preparation is essential for keeping your engine

trouble-free and looking good. The following steps will help to keep

rust and corrosion from impairing your engine’s function and

appearance, and will make the engine easier to start when you use

it again.

Cleaning

If the engine has been running, allow it to cool for at least half an

hour before cleaning. Clean all exterior surfaces, touch up any

damaged paint, and coat other areas that may rust with a light film

of oil.

Using a garden hose or pressure washing equipment can force

water into the air cleaner or muffler opening. Water in the air

cleaner will soak the air filter, and water that passes through the air

filter or muffler can enter the cylinder, causing damage.

Fuel

Depending on the region where you operate your equipment, fuel

formulations may deteriorate and oxidize rapidly. Fuel deterioration

and oxidation can occur in as little as 30 days and may cause

damage to the carburetor and/or fuel system. Please check with

your servicing dealer for local storage recommendations.

Gasoline will oxidize and deteriorate in storage. Deteriorated

gasoline will cause hard starting, and it leaves gum deposits that

clog the fuel system. If the gasoline in your engine deteriorates

during storage, you may need to have the carburetor and other fuel

system components serviced or replaced.

The length of time that gasoline can be left in your fuel tank and

carburetor without causing functional problems will vary with such

factors as gasoline blend, your storage temperatures, and whether

the fuel tank is partially or completely filled. The air in a partially

filled fuel tank promotes fuel deterioration. Very warm storage

temperatures accelerate fuel deterioration. Fuel deterioration

problems may occur within a few months, or even less if the

gasoline was not fresh when you filled the fuel tank.

Fuel system damage or engine performance problems resulting from

neglected storage preparation are not covered under the

Distributor’s Limited Warranty.

You can extend fuel storage life by adding a gasoline stabilizer that

is formulated for that purpose, or you can avoid fuel deterioration

problems by draining the fuel tank and carburetor.

Adding a Gasoline Stabilizer to Extend Fuel Storage Life

When adding a gasoline stabilizer, fill the fuel tank with fresh

gasoline. If only partially filled, air in the tank will promote fuel

deterioration during storage. If you keep a container of gasoline for

refueling, be sure that it contains only fresh gasoline.

1. Add gasoline stabilizer following the manufacturer’s

instructions.

2. After adding a gasoline stabilizer, run the engine outdoors for 10

minutes to be sure that treated gasoline has replaced the

untreated gasoline in the carburetor.

3. Stop the engine.

32Z4HA00.fm 13 ページ２０１２年７月１１日　水曜日　午前１０時３分

14 ENGLISH

Draining the Fuel Tank and Carburetor

1. Move the fuel valve lever to the OFF position (see page 6).

2. Place an approved gasoline container below the carburetor, and

use a funnel to avoid spilling fuel.

3. Remove the carburetor drain bolt and gasket. Remove the

sediment cup and O-ring, then move the fuel valve lever to the

ON position (see page 4).

4. After all the fuel has drained into the container, reinstall the

drain bolt, gasket, sediment cup and O-ring. Tighten the drain

bolt and sediment cup securely.

Engine Oil

1. Change the engine oil (see page 9).

2. Remove the spark plug (see page 12).

3. Pour a teaspoon 5–10 cm3 (5–10 cc) of clean engine oil into the

cylinder.

4. Pull the starter rope several times to distribute the oil in the

cylinder.

5. Reinstall the spark plug.

6. Pull the starter rope slowly until resistance is felt and the notch

on the starter pulley aligns with the hole at the top of the recoil

starter cover. This will close the valves so moisture cannot enter

the engine cylinder. Return the starter rope gently.

7. Electric starter type: Remove the battery and store it in a cool,

dry place. Recharge it once a month.

8. Cover the engine to keep out dust.

Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive, and you

can be burned or seriously injured when handling fuel.

• Stop the engine and keep heat, sparks, and flame

away.

• Handle fuel only outdoors.

• Wipe up spills immediately.

Storage Precautions

If your engine will be stored with gasoline in the fuel tank and

carburetor, it is important to reduce the hazard of gasoline vapor

ignition. Select a well ventilated storage area away from any

appliance that operates with a flame, such as a furnace, water

heater, or clothes dryer. Also avoid any area with a

spark-producing electric motor, or where power tools are operated.

If possible, avoid storage areas with high humidity, because that

promotes rust and corrosion.

Keep the engine level in storage. Tilting can cause fuel or oil

leakage.

With the engine and exhaust system cool, cover the engine to keep

out dust. A hot engine and exhaust system can ignite or melt some

materials. Do not use sheet plastic as a dust cover.

A nonporous cover will trap moisture around the engine, promoting

rust and corrosion.

If equipped with a battery for electric starter types, recharge the

battery once a month while the engine is in storage.

This will help to extend the service life of the battery.

Removal from Storage

Check your engine as described in the BEFORE OPERATION

CHECKS section of this manual (see page 4).

If the fuel was drained during storage preparation, fill the tank with

fresh gasoline. If you keep a container of gasoline for refueling, be

sure it contains only fresh gasoline. Gasoline oxidizes and

deteriorates over time, causing hard starting.

If the cylinder was coated with oil during storage preparation, the

engine will smoke briefly at startup. This is normal.

TRANSPORTING

If the engine has been running, allow it to cool for at least 15

minutes before loading the engine-powered equipment on the

transport vehicle. A hot engine and exhaust system can burn you

and can ignite some materials.

Keep the engine level when transporting to reduce the possibility of

fuel leakage. Move the fuel valve lever to the OFF position (see page

6).

FUSE REPLACEMENT (applicable types)

The electric starter relay circuit and battery charging circuit are

protected by a fuse. If the fuse burns out, the electric starter will

not operate. The engine can be started manually if the fuse burns

out, but running the engine will not charge the battery.

1. Remove the 6×12 mm special screw from the rear cover of the

engine switch box, and remove the rear cover.

2. Remove the fuse cover, then pull out and inspect the fuse.

If the fuse is burnt out, discard the burnt-out fuse. Install a new

fuse with the same rating as the one that was removed, and

reinstall the cover.

If you have questions regarding the rating of the original fuse,

contact your Honda servicing dealer.

Never use a fuse with a rating greater than the one originally

equipped with the engine. Serious damage to the electrical

system or a fire could result.

3. Reinstall the rear cover. Install the 6×12 mm screw and tighten

it securely.

Frequent fuse failure usually indicates a short circuit or an overload

in the electrical system. If the fuse burns out frequently, take the

engine to a Honda servicing dealer for repair.

Carburetor Modifications for High Altitude Operation

At high altitude, the standard carburetor air-fuel mixture will be too

rich. Performance will decrease, and fuel consumption will increase.

A very rich mixture will also foul the spark plug and cause hard

starting. Operation at an altitude that differs from that at which this

engine was certified, for extended periods of time, may increase

emissions.

High altitude performance can be improved by specific

modifications to the carburetor. If you always operate your engine

at altitudes above 1,500 meters (5,000 feet), have your servicing

dealer perform this carburetor modification. This engine, when

operated at high altitude with the carburetor modifications for high

altitude use, will meet each emission standard throughout its useful

life.

Even with carburetor modification, engine horsepower will decrease

about 3.5% for each 300 meter (1,000 foot) increase in altitude.

The effect of altitude on horsepower will be greater than this if no

carburetor modification is made.

When the carburetor has been modified for high altitude operation,

the air-fuel mixture will be too lean for low altitude use. Operation

at altitudes below 1,500 meters (5,000 feet) with a modified

carburetor may cause the engine to overheat and result in serious

engine damage. For use at low altitudes, have your servicing dealer

return the carburetor to original factory specifications.

Emission Control System Information

Source of Emissions

The combustion process produces carbon monoxide, oxides of

nitrogen, and hydrocarbons. Control of hydrocarbons and oxides of

nitrogen is very important because, under certain conditions, they

react to form photochemical smog when subjected to sunlight.

Carbon monoxide does not react in the same way, but it is toxic.

Honda utilizes appropriate air/fuel ratios and other emissions control

systems to reduce the emissions of carbon monoxide, oxides of

nitrogen, and hydrocarbons.

Additionally, Honda fuel systems utilize components and control

technologies to reduce evaporative emissions.

The U.S., California Clean Air Act, and Environment Canada

EPA, California, and Canadian regulations require all manufacturers

to furnish written instructions describing the operation and

maintenance of emission control systems.

The following instructions and procedures must be followed in order

to keep the emissions from your Honda engine within the emission

standards.

Tampering and Altering

Tampering with or altering the emission control system may

increase emissions beyond the legal limit. Among those acts that

constitute tampering are:

• Removal or alteration of any part of the intake, fuel, or exhaust

systems.

• Altering or defeating the governor linkage or speed-adjusting

mechanism to cause the engine to operate outside its design

parameters.

Problems That May Affect Emissions

If you are aware of any of the following symptoms, have your

engine inspected and repaired by your servicing dealer.

• Hard starting or stalling after starting.

• Rough idle.

• Misfiring or backfiring under load.

• Afterburning (backfiring).

• Black exhaust smoke or high fuel consumption.

Replacement Parts

The emission control systems on your Honda engine were designed,

built, and certified to conform with EPA, California and Canadian

emission regulations. We recommend the use of genuine Honda

parts whenever you have maintenance done.

These original-design replacement parts are manufactured to the

same standards as the original parts, so you can be confident of

their performance. The use of replacement parts that are not of the

original design and quality may impair the effectiveness of your

emission control system.

A manufacturer of an aftermarket part assumes the responsibility

that the part will not adversely affect emission performance. The

manufacturer or rebuilder of the part must certify that use of the

part will not result in a failure of the engine to comply with

emission regulations.

Maintenance

Follow the maintenance schedule on page 7. Remember that this

schedule is based on the assumption that your machine will be

used for its designed purpose. Sustained high-load or

high-temperature operation, or use in unusually wet or dusty

conditions, will require more frequent service.
