PREPARATION AND
CHECKS BEFORE USE
To carry out this series of
checks, place the mower
on stable and level ground
with engine stopped and
spark plug [1] cap
removed.
ASSEMBLY OF THE
HANDLE
Before mounting the handle, ensure that the cables [2] are
positioned outside the handle. Fit the components in the order
indicated. Take care to position the cables above the handle [3].
Note the direction of assembly of the spring washers [4], with the
convex side turned towards the nut [5].
[4]
[2]
While holding the handle [3] in
an open position, tighten the
nut [5] until the thread is
2 mm [6] longerthan the nut [5].
Choose the desired height and
tighten the handles to lock the
handle. If the effort to close down
the handles [3] seems too important,
untighten slightly the nuts [5]. If the
clamping of thehandle seems too
weak, tighten the nut [5].
Ensure that the clamping rings
for the cables on the handle
are positioned correctly:
[7] at each end of the fluted tube
[8] aligned with the center of the
clamping handle
To assemble the grass bag, please refer to see page 11.
CHECKING THE GRASS BAG
Before use, ensure that the bag closing
device is correctly locked (discharge guard).
Even in normal use, the grass bag tends to wear. Regularly
check that it is not frayed or torn. A worn out bag must be
replaced. Replace a damaged bag by a Honda bag only.
Bag removal:
1. Stop the engine.
2. Raise discharge guard [9],
grasp handle [10] and
remove bag [11] while
keeping it in an upright
position.
Bag fitting:
1. Raise the discharge guard
and hook the front of the bag
on the mower's attachment
lugs [12].

NOTE :
• The HRX mower can be fitted with an optional mulching kit,
available from your approved Honda reseller, comprising an
additional special blade and a housing cap (see page 14).
• Mulching is a natural fertilisation technique. The grass is no
longer collected in the grass bag, but is finely ground and
deposited on the lawn. The grass cuttings chopped up in this way
decompose in the sun and form a natural humus which can
produce a quarter of the annual fertilisation requirement of your
lawn.
• In addition to its fertilising role, mulching protects the ground,
limits evaporation of water during hot periods and relieves you of
the task of collecting the grass.
CHECKING FUEL LEVEL
Do not fill the fuel tank up to the brim (There must be no fuel
in the filler neck). When filling is completed, ensure that the
tank filler cap is screwed fully on.
Avoid getting fuel on the skin repeatedly or for long periods
and avoid breathing fuel vapours. Keep fuel away from
children.
CAUTION:
• Never use a gas-oil mixture.
• Only use unleaded petrol 95 or 98.
• Do not let dirt, clippings, etc. get into the tank.
• Do not use dirty or contaminated fuel (water, dust, ...), or fuel
which is too old. The quality of unleaded petrol deteriorates with
[6]
time. Do not keep fuel for more than one month (see page 13).
2 mm
To check the fuel level:
1. Remove filler cap [13] and
check fuel level.
2. Fill [14] tank if level is low.
The maximum level is
reached when the fuel is
opposite mark [15].
3. Screw filler cap [13] fully on
after filling.
NOTE : Fuel substitute products
are not recommended. These
may damage fuel system
components.

FUEL CONTAINING ALCOHOL
B3
D6
If you intend to use fuel with alcohol, ensure that its octane number
is at least as high as that recommended by Honda (86). There are
two types of fuel/alcohol mixtures: one contains ethanol and the
other methanol.
Do not use mixtures containing more than 10% ethanol, or fuel
containing methanol (methyl or wood alcohol), which do not
contain cosolvents, or corrosion inhibitors for methanol.
In the case of a mixture containing methanol with addition of
cosolvents and corrosion inhibitors, limit the proportion to 5% of
methanol.
NOTE : The guarantee does not cover damage caused to the fuel
system or engine performance problems resulting from the use of
fuel containing alcohol. Honda does not give its approval to the
[12]
use of fuels containing methyl alcohol since their suitability is not
yet proven.
