’ l Be careful not to spill fuel when refueling. Spilled fuel or fuel vapor may ig- nite. If any fuel is spilled, make sure the area is dry before starting the engine. l Avoid repeated oc prolonged contact with skin or breathing of vapor. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN. GASOLINES CONTAINING ALCOHOL If you decide to use a g’asoline containing alcohol (gasohol), be sure it’s octane rating is at least as high as that recommended by Honda. There are two types of “gasohol”: one containing ethanol, and the other containing methanol. Do not use gasohol that contains more than 10% ethanol. Do not use gasoline containing methanol (methyl or wood alcohol) that does .not also contain cosolvents and corrosion inhibitors for methanol. Never use gasoline contain- ing more than 5% methanol, even if it has cosolvents and corrosion inhibitors. NOTE: l Fuel system damage or engine performance problems resulting from the use of fuels that contain alcohol is not covered under the warranty. Honda cannot endorse the use of fuels containing methanol since evidence of their suitability is as yet incomplete. l Before buying fuel from an unfamiliar station, try to find out if the fuel con- tains alcohol, if it does, confirm the type and percentage of alcohol used. If you notice any undesirable operating symptoms while using a gasoline that contains alcohol, or one that ‘you think contains alcohol, switch to a gasoline that you know does not contain alcohol. ENGINE OIL LEVEL, Inspection: With the snowblower on a level surface, remove the oil filler cap and wipe the dipstick clean. Insert the dipstick into the filler neck, but do not screw it in. Remove the dipstick and check the oil level. If the level is low, fill to the top of the oil filler neck with the recommended oil. OIL FILLER NECK UPPER LIMIT OIL FILLER CAP AND DIPSTICK OIL CAPACITY: 0.6 P (0.63 US qt. 0.53 Imp qt) RECOMMENDED OIL: Use high detergent, premium quality motor oil certified to meet or exceed U.S. automobile manufacturers’ requirements for service classification SE or SF (Motor oils classified SE or SF will show this designation on the con- tainer.) Select the appropriate oil viscosity for the average temperature in b your area, as shown in the chart above. SAE 5W-30 is recommended for general, all-temperature use. CAUTION: l Engine oil is a major factor affecting engine performance and service life. Nondetergent oils and 2-stroke engine oils are not recommended because they have inadequate lubricating properties. l Running the engine with insufficient oil can cause serious engine damage. 4. STARTING iHE ENGINE Emm Never run the engine in an enclosed or confined area. Exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas; exposure can cause loss of con- sciousness and may lead to death. 1.

If the choke had been turn- ed to the CLOSE position, return it gradually to the OPEN position as the engine warms up. CHOKE KNOB HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATION At high altitude, the standard carburetor air-fuel mixture will be excessively rich. Performance will decrease, and fuel consumption will increase. High altitude performance can be improved by installing a smaller diameter main fuel jet in the carburetor and readjusting the pilot screw. If you always operate the snowblower at altitudes higher than 6,000 feet above sea level, have your authorized Honda Snowblower dealer perform these car- buretor modifications. Even with suitable carburetor jetting, engine horsepower will decrease ap- proximately 3.5% for each 1,000 foot increase in altitude. The affect of altitude on horsepower will be greater than this if no carburetor modifica- tion is made. CAUTION: Operation of the snowblower at an altitude lower than the car- buretor is jetted for may result in reduced performance, overheating, and serious engine damage caused by an excessively lean air/fuel mixture. 5. SNOWBLOWER OPERATION ram Before operating this equipment you should read and under- stand the SAFETY information on page 4, 5. 1. Move the throttle lever (p. 10) to the FAST position for normal operation. 2. Move the shift lever (p. 10) to select the desired drive speed. DRIVE SPEED WITH THROTTLE .
