PW30AOV Owner's Manual
If your unit fails to start, check trouble shooting section in operator's manual and also see engine
manual.
NOTE: Honda engines are equipped with a low oil sensor to prevent engine damage. When it senses a low oil
condition (i.e. unit is operating or sitting on a steep slope) the engine shuts down. The low oil condition must be corrected
before the engine can be restarted. See the engine owner's manual for more information.
