Recommended Fuel
Unleaded gasoline
U.S. Pump octane rating 86 or higher
Except U.S. Research octane rating 91 or higher
Pump octane rating 86 or higher
Fuel specification(s) necessary to maintain the performance of the
emissions control system: E10 fuel referenced in EU regulation.
This engine is certified to operate on unleaded gasoline with a
research octane rating of 91 or higher (a pump octane rating of 86
or higher).
Refuel in a well ventilated area with the engine stopped. If the
engine has been running, allow it to cool first. Never refuel the
engine inside a building where gasoline fumes may reach flames or
sparks.
You may use unleaded gasoline containing no more than 10%
ethanol (E10) or 5% methanol by volume. In addition, methanol
must contain cosolvents and corrosion inhibitors. Use of fuels with
content of ethanol or methanol greater than shown above may
cause starting and/or performance problems. It may also damage
metal, rubber, and plastic parts of the fuel system. Engine damage
or performance problems that result from using a fuel with
percentages of ethanol or methanol greater than shown above are
not covered under the Warranty.
Gasoline is highly flammable and explosive.
You can be burned or seriously injured when
handling fuel.
• Stop the engine and let it cool before handling fuel.
• Keep heat, sparks, and flame away.
• Handle fuel only outdoors.
• Keep away from your vehicle.
• Wipe up spills immediately.
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 Warranty.
Never use gasoline that is stale, contaminated, or mixed with oil.
Avoid getting dirt or water in the fuel tank.
Refer to the instructions provided with the equipment powered by
this engine for refuelling.
1. With the engine stopped and on a level surface, remove the fuel
tank cap and check the fuel level. Refill the tank if the fuel level
is low.
2. Add fuel to the upper level of the fuel tank. Wipe up spilled fuel
before starting the engine.
3. Refuel carefully to avoid spilling fuel. Do not overfill the fuel
tank (there should be no fuel in the fuel filler neck). It may be
necessary to lower the fuel level depending on operating
conditions. After refueling, tighten the fuel tank cap securely.
Keep gasoline away from appliance pilot lights, barbecues, electric
appliances, power tools, etc.
Spilled fuel is not only a fire hazard, it causes environmental
damage. Wipe up spills immediately.
ENGINE OIL
Oil is a major factor affecting performance and service life.
Use 4-stroke automotive detergent oil.
Recommended Oil
See Figure 10, page A-3.
Use 4-stroke motor oil that meets or exceeds the requirements for
API service category SE or later (or equivalent). Always check the
API service label on the oil container to be sure it includes the
letters SE or later (or equivalent).
Lubrication oil specifications necessary to maintain the
performance of the emissions control system: Honda genuine oil.
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
See Figure 9, page A-3.
1. Remove the oil filler cap/dipstick and wipe it clean.
2. Insert the dipstick into the oil filler neck, but do not screw it in.
3. If the level is low, add the recommended oil to the upper limit on
the dipstick.
4. Install the oil filler cap/dipstick.
Running the engine with a low oil level can cause engine damage.
This type of damage is not covered under the Warranty.
Oil Change
See Figure 9, page A-3 and Figure 11, page A-3.
Drain the used oil when the engine is warm. Warm oil drains
quickly and completely.
1. Turn the fuel valve lever to the OFF position.
See Figure 1, page A-2.
2. Remove the oil filler cap and drain the oil into the oil container
by inclining the engine toward the oil filler neck.
3. Refill with the recommended oil and check the oil level.
Running the engine with a low oil level can cause engine damage.
This type of damage is not covered under the Warranty.
Engine oil capacity: 0.40 L (14 US oz, 0.35 Imp qt)
4. Install the oil filler cap/dipstick securely.
Wash your hands with soap and water after handling used oil.
Please dispose of used motor oil in a manner that is compatible
with the environment.We suggest you take it in a sealed container
to your local service station for reclamation. Do not throw it in the
trash, pour it on the ground, or pour it down a drain.

AIR CLEANER

A dirty air cleaner will restrict air flow to the carburetor, reducing
engine performance. If you operate the engine in very dusty areas,
clean the air filter more often than specified in the MAINTENANCE
SCHEDULE (see page 3).
Operating the engine without an air filter, or with a damaged air
filter, will allow dirt to enter the engine, causing rapid engine wear.
This type of damage is not covered under the Warranty.
Inspection
Remove the air cleaner cover and inspect the filter element. Clean
or replace a dirty filter element. Always replace a damaged filter
element.
