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.

dealer, unless you have the proper tools and are mechanically
proficient. Refer to the Honda shop manual for service
procedures.

maintenance intervals.
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.
WARNING
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.
REFUELING
Use unleaded gasoline with a pump octane rating of 86 or higher. This
engine is certified to operate on unleaded gasoline. Unleaded gasoline
produces fewer engine and spark plug deposits and extends exhaust
system life.
WARNING
Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive, and you can
be burned or seriously injured when refueling.
• Stop engine and keep heat, sparks, and flame away.
• Refuel only outdoors.
• Wipe up spills immediately.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Make sure the engine is off before you begin any maintenance or
repairs. This will eliminate several potential hazards:
– Carbon monoxide poisoning from engine exhaust .
Be sure there is adequate ventilation whenever you operate
the engine.
– 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 nonflammable 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 genuine Honda
parts or their equivalents for repair and replacement.
NOTICE
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 (see page 11).
Never use stale or contaminated gasoline or oil/gasoline mixture.
Avoid getting dirt or water in the fuel tank.

3. Remove the drain bolt and drain the oil into the container by slightly
tipping the engine toward the oil filler cap/dipstick.
Recommended Oil
Use 4-stroke motor oil that meets
or exceeds the requirements for
API service classification SH, SJ,
or equivalent. Always check the
API service label on the oil
container to be sure it includes the
letters SH, SJ, or equivalent.
SAE 10W-30 is recommended for general use. Other viscosities
shown in the chart may be used when the average temperature in your
area is within the indicated range.
Oil Level Check
1. Check the oil with the engine stopped and level.
2. Remove the oil filler cap/dipstick and wipe it clean.
3. Insert the oil filler cap/dipstick into the oil filler neck as shown, but
do not screw it in, then remove it to check the oil level.
4. If the oil level is near or below the lower limit mark on the dipstick,
remove the oil filler cap/dipstick, and fill with the recommended oil
to the upper limit mark (bottom edge of the oil fill hole). Do not
overfill.
5. Reinstall the oil filler cap/dipstick.
Please dispose of used motor oil in a manner that is compatible
with the environment. We suggest you take used oil in a sealed
container to your local recycling center or service station for
reclamation. Do not throw it in the trash or pour it on the ground or
down a drain.
4. With the engine in a level
position, fill to the upper
limit mark on the dipstick
with the recommended oil
(see below).
Engine Oil Capacity:
0.63 US qt (0.60 )
NOTICE
Running the engine with
a low oil level can cause
