2007 Rincon oil change

What CC and transmission? Honda did their research concerning oils and discovered 5W30's cause faster transmission wear.
I may be wrong. Swore I remember reading about it a long time ago.
No. DH2 is a low ash spec for diesels with exhaust treatment devices. The multi-vehicle T6 does not carry JASO MA. I have an '03 Rincon and have used T6 5w40, which does carry MA, since switching away from Honda oils. I use it in all my small engines, actually. Quality stuff and easy to find down here in the US.
Here's the viscosity/temp chart for the Rincon, FWIW.

I am in Canada where it gets down to -20 celsius often, does it mean I should get 0w-30? If so, is there such an oil with JASO MA?
Does the machine get down to -20? Or is it kept in a garage where it stays above that?
Do you have a local Honda dealer? It would be curious to see what they fill machines with in the winter.
I've never experienced temps that low, much less have to plan for it, so I don't have a good answer for you - sorry.

It will be in a garage, so I guess, -10c is the coldest start it will see.
