Maintenance Safety
Servicing Your Honda 33
Maintenance Safety
This section includes instructions on how to
perform some important maintenance tasks.
Some of the most important safety precautions
follow. However, we cannot warn you of every
conceivable hazard that can arise in performing
maintenance. Only you can decide whether or not
you should perform a given task.
• Make sure the engine is off before you begin
any maintenance or repairs.
This will help eliminate several potential
hazards:
Carbon monoxide poisoning from engine
exhaust. Be sure there is adequate ventilation
whenever you operate the engine.
Burns from hot motorcycle parts. Let the
engine and exhaust system cool before
touching.
Injury from moving parts. Do not run the
engine unless instructed to do so.
• Read the instructions before you begin, and
make sure you have the tools and skills
required.
• To help prevent the motorcycle from falling
over, park it on a firm, level surface, using the
side stand, an optional workstand or a
maintenance stand to provide support.
• To reduce the possibility of a fire or explosion,
be careful when working around gasoline. Use
only a non-flammable (high flash point)
solvent such as kerosene –not gasoline– to
clean parts. Keep cigarettes, sparks, and flames
away from all fuel-related parts.
Remember that your Honda dealer knows your
motorcycle best and is fully equipped to maintain
and repair it. To ensure the best quality and
reliability, use only new Honda Genuine Parts or
their equivalents for repair and replacement. If you
have the tools and skills required for additional
maintenance jobs, you can purchase an official
Honda Service Manual (page 194).
WARNING
Failure to properly follow maintenance
instructions and precautions can cause
you to be seriously hurt or killed.
Always follow the procedures and
precautions in this owner’s manual.
