7. MAINTENANCE

The purpose of the maintenance and adjustment schedule is to keep the

engine in the best operating condition. Inspect or service is scheduled in the

table below.

m Shut off the engine before performing any maintenance. If the

engine must be run, make sure the area is well ventilated. The exhaust con-

tains poisonous carbon monoxide gas; exposure can cause loss of con-

sciousness and may lead to death.

CAUTION:

If the pump has been used with sea water, muddy water, etc., pump clean,

fresh water through the pump immediately afterward to reduce corrosion

and remove sediment.

Use only genuine HONDA parts or their equivalent. The use of replacement

parts which are not of equivalent quality may damage the engine.
