5. Starting cold engine – put the throttle control in
the choke position.
Starting warm engine – put the throttle control
at full throttle (approx. 2 cm behind the choke
position).
6. Depress the clutch-brake pedal fully.
7. Turn the ignition key and start the engine.
8 Once the engine has started, move the throttle
control gradually to full throttle (approx. 2 cm
behind the choke position) if the choke has been
used.
9. When starting from cold, do not make the ma-
chine work under load immediately, but let the
engine run for a few minutes first. This will al-
low the oil to warm up.
When the machine is in operation, full throttle
should always be used.

4.6 Operating tips

Always check that there is the correct volume of
oil in the engine. This is particularly important
when operating on slopes. See 4.2.
Be careful when driving on slopes. No
sudden starting or stopping when driv-
ing up or down a slope. Never drive
across a slope. Move from the top down
or from the bottom to the top.
The machine may not be driven on
slopes greater than 10º in any direction.
Reduce the speed on slopes and when
making sharp turns in order to retain
control and reduce the risk of tipping
over.
Do not turn the steering wheel to full
lock when driving in top gear and at full
throttle. The machine can easily topple
over.
Keep hands and fingers well away from
articulated steering joint and seat
bracket. Risk of crushing injuries. Nev-
er drive with the engine casing open.
4.7 Stop
Disengage the power take-off. Apply the parking
brake.
Allow the engine to idle 1-2 mins. Stop the engine
by turning off the ignition key.
Shut off the petrol cock. This is particularly impor-
tant if the machine is to be transported on a trailer
for example.
If the machine is left unattended, re-
move the spark plug cable(s) and re-
move the ignition key.

ENGLISH
The engine may be very warm immedi-
ately after it is shut off. Do not touch the
silencer, cylinder or cooling fins. This
can cause burn injuries.
4.8 Cleaning
To reduce the risk of fire, keep the en-
gine, silencer, battery and fuel tank free
from grass, leaves and oil.
To reduce the risk of fire, regularly
check the machine for oil and/or fuel
leakage.
Clean the machine after each use. The following
instructions apply for cleaning:
• When washing the machine with water under
high pressure, do not point the jet directly at
axle seals, electrical components or hydraulic
valves.
• Do not spray water directly at the engine.
• Clean the engine with a brush and/or com-
pressed air.
• Clean the engine's cooling air intake (11:W).
5 MAINTENANCE
5.1 Service programme
In order to keep the machine in good condition as
regards reliability and operational safety as well as
from an environmental perspective, STIGA's Ser-
vice programme should be followed.
The contents of this programme can be found in
the attached service log.
Basic service must always be carried out by an au-
thorised workshop.
First service and intermediate service should be
carried out by an authorised workshop, but can
also be carried out by the user. The content of this
can be found in the service log and the actions are
described under "4 STARTING AND OPERA-
TION" as well as below.
Servicing carried out at an authorised workshop
guarantees professional work using genuine spare
parts.
At each basic service and intermediate service car-
ried out at an authorised workshop, the service log
is stamped. A service log presenting these services
is a valuable document that improves the ma-
chine's second-hand value.
