1. Turn the fuel valve OFF (

). 

2. Disconnect the spark plug cap from the spark plug (

).

3. Tilt the mower to the right side, so the fuel cap side is up. This will 

help to prevent fuel leakage and hard starting due to carburetor 
flooding.

4. Inspect the blade for damage, cracks, and excessive rust or 

corrosion. 

A dull blade can be sharpened, but a blade that is excessively worn, 
bent, cracked, or otherwise damaged must be replaced. 

If a blade is bent, take the lawn mower to an authorized Honda 
servicing dealer for inspection.

Inspect the blade bolts for any signs of damage 
or looseness. If they are damaged, they must 
be replaced.

If they appear loose, a torque wrench must be 
used to accurately tighten the blade bolts to the 
required torque. If you do not have a torque 
wrench, take your lawn mower to an authorized 
dealer to have the bolts replaced and/or 
tightened.

Use only Honda Genuine blade bolts and 
special washers, since they are specifically 
designed for this purpose.

Replacement part numbers are on 

1. Remove the two blade bolts with a 14 mm (6 point) socket 

wrench. Use a wooden block to prevent the blade from turning 
when removing the bolts. Remove the blade.

2. Clean dirt and grass from around the blade mounting area.

3. Install the sharpened or replacement blade using the two blade 

bolts and special washers as shown above. 

The blade bolts and washers are specially designed for this 
application. When replacing bolts and washers, use only Honda 
Genuine replacement parts.

4. Tighten the blade bolts with a torque wrench. Use a wooden 

block to prevent the blade from turning when tightening the bolts.

Blade bolt torque: 36 ~ 43 ft-lb (49 ~ 59 N·m)

If you do not have a torque wrench, have an authorized Honda 
servicing dealer tighten the blade bolts.



A worn, cracked, or damaged blade can break, and pieces of 
the damaged blade can become dangerous projectiles.

Thrown objects can cause serious injury.

Inspect the blade regularly, and do not operate the mower 
with a worn or damaged blade.



If the blade bolts are not torqued properly, the blade could 
loosen and be thrown from the mower and seriously hurt or kill 
someone.

Ensure the blade bolts are torqued properly.
