MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE

D1 D2
Regular maintenance will extend your motor
hoe's service life.
To prevent the machine being started accidentally, disconnect
the spark plug cap.
CAUTION :
• Use genuine Honda parts or equivalent parts only when carrying
out maintenance or repairs. The motor hoe could be damaged if
you use spare parts which are not of at least equivalent quality.

• The engine and the exhaust pipe become hot during operation
and reach temperatures high enough to cause burns or cause a
fire if there are flammable materials nearby. Allow the engine to
cool before performing any maintenance work.
• Switch off the engine before performing any maintenance
operation. The exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide which is
a toxic gas that can cause fainting or fatal accidents. If it is
necessary to run the engine, make sure there is adequate
ventilation.
