Lawn Mowers

This Honda Lawn Mower HRC216HXA currently has an MSRP price of $1249, although dealers may offer a different price and specific models may have slightly different features. Check with your local dealer.

The  HRC216HXA model has a 21-inch wide deck with a rear bagger and mulcher combination. This machine is self-propelled and comes with a hydrostatic commercial grade transmission system providing variable speeds to match your walking style or conditions as needed. Vary the speed from 1.8 to 4 miles per hour to deal with heavy grass, rough ground, or transport situations. The hydrostatic transmission provides a lot of flexibility that many other lawnmowers just do not have.

There are no belts to be concerned with as well since it is a shaft drive system. As with some of the other Honda lawn mowers, this one comes with the twin-blade micro-cut system, which provides four cutting surfaces instead of the normal two cutting surfaces..

This Honda Lawn Mower comes equipped with the Honda Roto-Stop system which provides several unique advantages compared to other models. You can stop the blades from spinning without turning off the engine to move something out of the way or get around an object. Operators can also use this feature during transport from one area to another. Stop the blades from spinning while you use the self-propelled feature to move the lawnmower from one cutting area to another!

Just push the button to start it , engage the drive and you are off to cutting your lawn.

Lawns with a Slope

If you have a slope on your lawn, the rear wheel drive will make cutting this lawn very easy for most people. Cuttingt the lawn on a downwards cut it will be much easier even with a self propelled lawn mower. If you must climb the slope, the self propelled drive will make it a much easier task.

Why not consider either a front wheel drive or a rear wheel drive lawn mower today.

Safety & Operation

All lawn mowers should be treated with respect. They are powerful machines and in the wrong hands can do a lot of damage. Start by reading the manual and following all of the safety guidelines outlined in the manual. Never work on the lawn mower without first ensuring that the engine is turned off.

While cutting the lawn and using the side discharge, never allow anyone to stand beside the discharge or point the discharge at something that could be damaged by high speed flying objects  ejected from the lawn mower.

Always check the engine to make sure that there is sufficient oil in the engine before starting each day. Top up if necessary.  Fill the fuel tank while the engine is cool. A good time to do this is before you start cutting the lawn. Fuel spills can sometimes cause fires. If you do spill any fuel, wait until it evaporates prior to starting the engine to avoid any chance of fire. Always fill the fuel tank outdoors.

Shut the engine off before removing the rear bag to empty it of grass or making any other kind of adjustments to the lawn mower.

Maintenance:

Maintenance of the lawn mower  is pretty straight forward. Read the guidelines in the manual and follow them.  Arrange to have your engine tuned up once a year and the oil changed at the same time. This applies to most consumer applications where you are cutting your lawn once a week. If you are using the lawn mower for commercial applications you may need to change the oil more often.

Keep the housing free of debris to avoid the acid from the grass causing the housing to deteriorate. Also keep grass from building up around the muffler to avoid the possibility of fire. Check the spark plug to ensure that it is not corroded and dirty. Replace if it is pitted. Always use clean fresh gasoline for your lawn mower. Following these tips and others in the manual will ensure that your lawn mower will last for many years.

Maintenance:

Maintenance of the lawnmower is pretty straight forward. Read the guidelines in the manual and follow them.  Arrange to have your engine tuned up once a year and the oil changed at the same time. This applies to most consumer applications where you are cutting your lawn once a week. If you are using the lawnmower for commercial applications you may need to change the oil more often.

Keep the housing free of debris to avoid the acid from the grass causing the housing to deteriorate. Also keep grass from building up around the muffler to avoid the possibility of fire. Check the spark plug to ensure that it is not corroded and dirty. Replace if it is pitted. Always use clean fresh gasoline for your lawnmower. Following these tips and others in the manual will ensure that your lawnmower will last for many years.

All lawnmowers should be treated with respect. They are powerful machines, and in the wrong hands, they can cause a lot of damage. Start by reading the manual and following all of the safety guidelines outlined in it. Never work on the lawn mower without ensuring the engine is turned off.

While cutting the lawn and using the side discharge, never allow anyone to stand beside the discharge or point the discharge at something that could be damaged by high-speed flying objects ejected from the lawn mower.

Always check the engine to make sure that there is sufficient oil before starting each day. Top up if necessary. Fill the fuel tank while the engine is cool. A good time to do this is before you start cutting the lawn. Fuel spills can sometimes cause fires. If you do spill any fuel, wait until it evaporates before starting the engine to avoid any chance of fire. Always fill the fuel tank outdoors.

Also change the engine oil at recommended intervals. Depending on use, you may need to change the oil often if you have a large lawn to cut.  At a minimum, change the oil at least once per year to protect the engine and extend the overall engine life.
