How do I service a Honda Izzy lawnmower?

I want to service my Honda Izzy lawnmower, where can I get instructions and parts?

Hi Amy
I have just bought an Izzy and find there are no details on how to service other than take to a dealer. I have asked the question of my supplier so wll let you know what they say, however in the meantime, I suggest.

At the end of each season...
Clean all external working parts of mulch that will go mouldy over the winter. Rub a little light oil on bright (unpainted) metal components (sparingly as you dont want to damage plastics or seals.

remove fuel as it will become stale, I would empty fuel then then start engine to run system clear.

change oil (depending on amount of use but after a season and for the sake of 0.55 litre change it anyway.)

apply a light oil/grease to the throttle linkage

Clear air cleaner and store machine in a dry place.

I will keep the box and return it there each winter with a few silicone anti-rust granules.

As I haven't used it yet have no operating experience for example does the area around the starter pull cord need clearing of grass etc If anyone has anything to add would be pleased to hear.
