Checking The Spark Plug; Spark Arrester; Carburetor Adjustment - Honda HRD536 Serie Manual Del Propietário

NOTE: The used engine oil must be disposed of in a manner which
respects the environment. We recommend that you take it to a service
station who will ensure that it is recycled. Never dispose of used engine oil
in dustbins or pour it away on the ground, in the gutter or down the drains.

CHECKING THE SPARK PLUG

Standard plugs:
NGK
HRD536 - HRH536 BPR5ES
CAUTION:
• Use only recommended spark plug. Using spark plug with
inappropriate temperature ranges may damage the engine.
If the engine has just been run, do not touch the muffler and the
spark plug which will still be hot.
1. Pull off spark plug cap [1]
and remove spark plug [2]
using a plug wrench [3].
2. Inspect the spark plug.
Replace it if the electrodes
are worn or if the insulator
is cracked or chipped.
Clean the spark plug with a
wire brush if you are going
to reuse it.
3. Measure the plug gap using
a set of feeler gauges; the
gap must be between 0.7
and 0.8 mm. If adjustment
is necessary, carefully
bend the side electrode.
4. Install the spark plug
carefully, by hand, to avoid
cross-threading.
5. After the spark plug seats, tighten with a spark plug wrench to
compress the washer.
If reinstalling the old spark plug, tighten 1/8 to 1/4 turn after the
spark plug seats.
If installing a new spark plug, tighten 1/2 turn after the spark plug
seats to compress the washer.
6. Refit the spark plug cap.
CAUTION:
• A loose spark plug can overheat and damage the engine.
Overtightening the spark plug can damage the threads in the
cylinder head.

SPARK ARRESTER

(Optional part)
(In Europe and other countries where the machinery directive 2006/42/EC
is enforced, this cleaning should be done by your servicing dealer).
If the lawnmower has just been run, the muffler will still be very hot.
Allow it to cool down before carrying out this operation.
In some regions, it is prohibited to operate an engine without a spark
arrester. Check local regulations before using your lawnmower. A
spark arrester is available on option from Honda dealers.
