To stop the engine in an emergency, simply turn the engine
switch to the OFF position. Under normal conditions, use the
following procedure. Refer to the instructions provided by the

control rather than the engine-mounted throttle control. Refer
to the instructions provided with the equipment
manufacturer.

Although you may hear operating noise from the motor, it is
not a malfunction.
3. If the fuel tank is equipped with a valve, turn the fuel valve to
the CLOSED or OFF position.

THE IMPORTANCE OF MAINTENANCE

Good maintenance is essential for safe, economical, and

Failure to properly maintain this engine, or failing to
correct a problem before operation, could result in a

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.
