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.
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.
Good maintenance is essential for safe, economical and trouble-
free operation. It will also help reduce pollution.
Service more frequently when used in dusty areas.
Replace paper element type only.
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 Honda servicing
dealer for recommendations applicable to your individual needs
and use.
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.
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.
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:
Operate outside, away from open windows or doors.
Let the engine and exhaust system cool before touching.
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.
These items should be serviced by your servicing dealer,
unless you have the proper tools and are mechanically
proficient. Refer to the Honda shop manual for service
procedures.
For commercial use, log hours of operation to determine
proper maintenance intervals.

BPR5ES (NGK)A dirty air cleaner will restrict air flow to the carburetor, reducing
engine performance. If you operate the engine in very dusty areas,
clean the air filter more often than specified in the MAINTENANCE
SCHEDULE.
Operating the engine without an air filter, or with a damaged air
filter, will allow dirt to enter the engine, causing rapid engine wear.
This type of damage is not covered by the
Distributor’s Limited
Warranty.
Remove the wing nut from
the air cleaner cover, and
remove the cover.
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 ).
Clean the air filter elements if they are to be reused.
Paper air 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 air 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, then
squeeze out all excess oil. The engine will smoke when started if
too much oil is left in the foam.
Wipe dirt from the inside of the air cleaner case and cover using
a moist rag. Be careful to prevent dirt from entering the air duct
that leads to the carburetor.
Remove the air cleaner cover and inspect the filter elements.
Clean or replace dirty filter elements. Always replace damaged
filter elements.
Remove the air filter
elements.
Remove the foam air filter
element from the paper air
filter element.
Place the foam air filter element over the paper element, and
reinstall the assembled air filter.
Install the air cleaner cover, and tighten the wing nut securely.
The recommended spark plug has the correct heat range for
normal engine operating temperatures.
An incorrect spark plug can cause engine damage.
For good performance, the spark plug must be properly gapped
and free of deposits.
Disconnect the spark plug cap,
and remove any dirt from
around the spark plug area.
Remove the spark plug with a
13/16-inch spark plug wrench.
Inspect the spark plug.
Replace it if damaged or
badly fouled, if the sealing
washer is in poor condition,
or if the electrode is worn.
Measure the spark plug
electrode gap with a wire-
type feeler gauge. Correct the
gap, if necessary, by carefully
bending the side electrode.
The gap should be:
Install the spark plug carefully,
by hand, to avoid cross-
threading.
After the spark plug is seated, tighten with a 13/16-inch spark
plug wrench to compress the sealing washer.
When installing a new spark plug, tighten 1/2 turn after the spark
plug seats to compress the washer.
When reinstalling the original spark plug, tighten 1/8 1/4 turn
after the spark plug seats to compress the washer.
Attach the spark plug cap to the spark plug.
A loose spark plug can overheat and damage the engine.
Overtightening the spark plug can damage the threads in the
cylinder head.

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.
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.
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.
Install the gasket, spark arrester, muffler, identification plate,
and muffler protector in reverse order of removal.
Use a brush to remove carbon
deposits from the spark arrester
screen. Be careful not to damage
the screen. Replace the spark
arrester if it has breaks or holes.
Remove the spark arrester from the muffler (take care not to
damage the wire mesh).
Remove the 8 mm bolt and the two 8 mm nuts, and remove the
muffler protector, identification plate, muffler and gasket from
the cylinder.
Remove the three 5 mm screws from the muffler protector.
If the engine has been running, the muffler will be hot. Allow it to
cool before servicing the spark arrester.
The spark arrester must be serviced every 100 hours to keep it
functioning as designed.
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.
In Europe and other countries where the machinery directive
2006/42/EC is enforced, this cleaning should be done by your
servicing dealer.

If possible, avoid storage areas with high humidity, because that
promotes rust and corrosion.
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.
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.
Add gasoline stabilizer following the manufacturer’s instructions.
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.
Place an approved gasoline container below the carburetor, and
use a funnel to avoid spilling fuel.
Reinstall the spark plug.
Pull the starter rope several times to distribute the oil in the
cylinder.
Pour a teaspoon 5 10 cm (5 10 cc) of clean engine oil into the
cylinder.
Remove the spark plug (see page ).
Change the engine oil (see page ).
Stop the engine, and move the fuel valve lever to the OFF
position.
Remove the drain bolt and gasket, and drain the carburetor bowl
fuel into an approved gasoline container.
Move the fuel valve lever to the ON position. This will allow the
fuel tank to drain through the carburetor bowl.
After draining the carburetor bowl and fuel tank, install the drain
bolt and gasket, and tighten securely.
Pull the starter rope slowly until resistance is felt.
(At this time the index mark on the cooling fan aligns with the
index mark on the fan cover).
This will close the valves so moisture cannot enter the engine
cylinder. Return the starter rope gently.
Unless all fuel has been drained from the fuel tank, leave the fuel
valve lever in the OFF position to reduce the possibility of fuel
leakage.
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.
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.
Position the equipment so the engine is level. Tilting can cause
fuel or oil leakage.
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.
Wipe up spills immediately.
Handle fuel only outdoors.

section of this manual (see page ).
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.
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. Turn the fuel valve to the OFF position (see

Emission Control System Information
Source of Emissions
Carburetor Modifications for High Altitude Operation
Maintenance
Replacement Parts
Problems That May Affect Emissions
Tampering and Altering
The U.S., California Clean Air Act, and Environment Canada
15
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.
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.
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.
Follow the maintenance schedule on page . 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.
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.
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.
Black exhaust smoke or high fuel consumption.
Afterburning (backfiring).
Misfiring or backfiring under load.
Rough idle.
Hard starting or stalling after starting.
If you are aware of any of the following symptoms, have your
engine inspected and repaired by your servicing dealer.
Altering or defeating the governor linkage or speed-adjusting
mechanism to cause the engine to operate outside its design
parameters.
Removal or alteration of any part of the intake, fuel, or exhaust
systems.
Tampering with or altering the emission control system may
increase emissions beyond the legal limit. Among those acts that
constitute tampering are:
The following instructions and procedures must be followed in
order to keep the emissions from your Honda engine within the
emission standards.
EPA, California, and Canadian regulations require all
manufacturers to furnish written instructions describing the
operation and maintenance of emission control systems.
