Remove all the cardboard from around the handlebar.

Loosen the two knobs 
on the lower handlebar 
enough to raise the 
handlebar into the 
mowing position.

Depress the flywheel 
brake lever while 
raising the handlebar.

Select a desired 
handlebar height and 
tighten the locking 
knobs securely.

Slide the grass bag frame into the grass bag and attach the clips as 
shown.

Lift the rear 
discharge guard, 
remove the mulching 
plug, and install the 
grass bag.

The mower is shipped 
WITHOUT OIL in the 
engine.

A bottle of oil is included 
in the box with your 
mower. Add the entire 
contents of the oil bottle 
into the oil filler opening.

All Honda engines are 
run at the factory prior to 
packaging. Most of the 
oil is removed prior to 
shipment; however, 
some oil remains in the 
engine. The amount of 
oil left in the engine 
varies.

If not using the supplied 
oil, add enough SAE 
10W-30 API service 
category SJ or later oil to 
bring the oil level 
between the upper and 
lower limit marks on the 
dipstick as shown.

Do not overfill engine with oil. If the engine is overfilled, the excess oil 
may get transferred to the air cleaner housing and air cleaner.

After filling the engine with oil, remove the hang tag near the recoil 
starter grip that says “The engine has no oil. A container of oil is in the 
shipping box.”

Before using the lawn mower, all mower operators must read the 
following sections:

• LAWN MOWER SAFETY (page 2)

• CONTROL LOCATIONS (page 4)
