The handlebar has four different positions. Release  
the catch with the foot and move the handlebar to  
the desired position (fig. 3).  
1. For normal mowing.  
2. For mowing under trees, shrubs etc.  
3. Parking position.  
4. Transportation and storage position. The  
handlebar takes up less room if the locking  
knobs are loosened and the handlebar folded in.  
SYMBOLS  
The following symbols are displayed on the  
machine in order to remind you about the safety  
precautions and attention necessary when using  
the machine.  
The symbols mean:  
Warning! Read the Instruction Book and  
Safety Manual before using the machine.  
CABLE HOLDER  
Put the wires into the cable holder (fig. 4).  
Warning! Keep spectators away. Beware  
of objects being flung out.  
EYELET FOR STARTER HANDLE  
Attach the starter handle to the eyelet on the  
steering handle (fig. 5).  
Warning! Do not put hands or feet under  
the cover of the machine when it is  
running.  
USING THE MOWER  
BEFORE STARTING  
Warning! Before starting any repair work,  
remove the spark plug cable from the  
spark plugs.  
FILL THE CRANKCASE WITH OIL  
The lawn mower is delivered without any  
oil in the engine crankcase. The

crankcase must, therefore, be filled with  
oil before the engine is started the first  
time.  
lawnmower backwards when  
cleaning the underside. Petrol and  
oil can run out if the lawnmower is  
tilted in the other direction.  
Remove the oil dipstick (fig. 6).  
Fill the engine's crankcase with 0.6 litres of good  
quality oil (service class SE, SF or SG) Use SAE  
30 or SAE 10W-30 oil.  
Fill until the oil reaches the “FULL/MAX” mark  
on the dip stick. Do not fill with too much oil.  
ASSEMBLING  
EJECTION SHIELD  
CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL  
Under no condition must the machine be  
started without the ejection shield being  
fitted on the machine. If it is not fitted,  
stones and other flying objects may easily  
be ejected by the rotating blade.  
Check before using the machine that the oil level is  
between “FULL/MAX” and “ADD/MIN” on the  
dipstick. Stand the lawn mower on a level surface.  
Remove and dry the dipstick (fig. 6). Slide it down  
completely and tighten it. Unscrew and pull it up  
again. Read-off. If the oil level is low, fill with oil  
up to the “FULL/MAX” mark.  
The parts for assembly of the ejector shield are  
attached to the packaging. Remove the parts and  
assemble the ejector shield according to fig. l.  
Tighten the screws securely.  
FILL UP THE PETROL TANK  
Fill with petrol before starting the motor.  
Never remove the filler cap or fill with  
petrol while the motor is running or still  
warm.  
HANDLEBAR  
Hinge up the lower part of the handlebar.  
The components for assembling the upper section  
of the steering are fitted for packing purposes.  
Remove the components from the lower section of  
the steering.  
Never completely fill the fuel tank. Allow a little  
room for the petrol to expand if necessary.  
Some engines have an extra safety cover under the  
regular fuel cap. This must not be reinstalled.  
Then attach the upper part of the handlebar with  
screws, washers and locking knobs (fig. 2).  
 
GB  
ENGLISH  
Preferably use environmentally friendly petrol, i.e.  
alkylate petrol. This type of petrol has a  
CUTTING HEIGHT  
Shut off the engine before adjusting the  
cutting height.  
composition that is less harmful to people and  
nature. It has e.g. no lead additives, no oxygenators  
(alcohols and ethers), no alkenes and no benzene.  
NOTE! If you change to environmentally friendly  
petrol in a motor previously run on ordinary lead-  
free petrol (95), the petrol manufacturer’s  
recommendations must be followed carefully.  
Ordinary lead-free 95 octane petrol can also be  
used. You must never use 2-stroke petrol mixed  
with oil. NOTE! Bear in mind that lead-free petrol  
is a perishable; do not purchase more petrol than  
can be used within thirty days.  
Do not set the cutting height so low that  
the blade can hit uneven ground.  
Avoid mowing when the grass is wet. The  
grass then sticks to the underside of the casing,  
giving poor mowing results.  
The cutting height can be adjusted to three  
positions by moving the wheel axles (fig. 10).  
If the start/stop loop no longer works,  
stop the engine by removing the lead  
from the spark plug. Immediately take  
the lawn mower to an authorised  
workshop for repairs.  
STARTING THE ENGINE  
1. Place the lawn mower on flat, firm ground. Do  
not start in high grass.  
2. Make sure the spark plug lead is connected to  
the spark plug.  
3. When starting a cold engine: Press down the  
primer fully 6 times (fig. 9).  
MAINTENANCE  
No service is to be made on the engine or  
lawn mower without first switching off  
the engine and removing the spark plug  
cable from the spark plug.  
Stop the engine and remove the spark  
plug cable if the mower is to be lifted, e.g.  
with transportation.  
If the machine is to be tilted the fuel tank  
must be emptied and the sparking plug of  
the engine kept upwards.  
When starting a warm engine the primer does  
not need to be used. If the engine stops due to a  
lack of petrol, refill and press down the primer  
three times.  
4. Press in the Start/Stop-loop G against the  
steering. Note that the Start/Stop loop G must  
be kept pressed-in to prevent the engine from  
stopping (fig. 7,8).  
5. Grasp the starter handle and start the engine by  
pulling briskly on the starter handle.  
Keep hands and feet well away from the  
rotating blade. Never put your hand or  
foot under the blade casing or in the  
grass evacuation unit while the engine is  
running.  
CLEANING  
After each time it is used the mower should be  
cleaned. This is particularly important on the  
underside of the mower casing. Wash out with the  
garden hose. The mower will then last longer and  
function better.  
High pressure washing units should not be used. If  
grass has dried on to the mower casing it can be  
removed by scraping. If necessary, give the  
underside a touch of paint to prevent rusting.  
Clean the silencer and the surrounding  
area regularly to remove grass, dirt and  
flammable waste products.  
STOP OF ENGINE  
The engine may be very warm  
immediately after it is shut off. Do not  
touch the silencer, cylinder or cooling  
flanges as it can cause burns and injury.  
1. Release Start/Stop-loop G (fig. 7,8) to stop the  
engine. This loop must not be disengaged (e.g.  
through fixing it in the depressed position  
against the steering), as the engine cannot be  
stopped.  
COOLING SYSTEM  
Before use, the engine's cooling system should be  
cleaned. Clean the cylinder's cooling fins and the  
air intake, removing any grass cuttings, dirt and the  
like.  
2. If the lawn mower is left unattended to, remove  
the lead from the spark plug.  
 
GB  
ENGLISH  
Always check the blade after an impact. First  
CHANGING OIL  
disconnect the ignition cable. If the blade system  
has been damaged the defective parts must be  
changed. Always use genuine spare parts.  
To replace the blade, slacken the blade bolt. Fit the  
new blade so that the stamped STIGA logotype is  
turned facing the blade attachment (and not facing  
the grass). Refit the washer and blade bolt. Tighten  
the blade bolt fully to a torque of 40 Nm (fig. 13).  
When replacing the blade, the blade bolt should  
also be replaced.  
The guarantee does not cover damage to the blade,  
blade holder or engine caused by running into  
obstacles.  
When replacing the blade, the blade holder and  
blade bolt, always use original spare parts. Non-  
authentic spare parts could lead to the risk of  
personal injury or damage, even if they fit the  
machine.  
Change the oil when the engine is warm  
and the petrol tank is empty. Hot oil will  
run out of the engine better. Use caution  
when draining the hot oil, as it could  
cause burn injuries.  
Change the oil the first time after 5 hours of  
operation, and subsequently after every 50 hours  
of operation or once a season. Remove the dip  
stick, tilt the mower and let the oil run out into a  
container. Be careful not to let any oil run on to the  
grass.  
Fill with new oil: use oil of SAE 30 or SAE 10W-  
30 quality. The crankcase holds approx. 0.6 litre.  
Fill until the oil reaches the "FULL/MAX" mark  
on the dip stick.  
AIR FILTER  
A dirty and blocked air filter reduces the engine  
output and increases engine wear.  
Carefully remove the air cleaner so that no dirt  
falls down into the carburettor (fig. 11). Take out  
the foam plastic filter element and wash it in liquid  
detergent and water. Dry the filter element. Pour a  
little oil on the filter element and squeeze it in.  
Refit the air cleaner.  
Wash the filter every three months or every 25  
hours running, whichever comes first, or more  
frequently if used in dusty conditions.  
SHARPENING OF THE BLADE  
Sharpening of the blade must be done by wet  
method grinding, using a whetstone or a  
grindstone.  
For the sake of safety, the blade should not be  
sharpened on an emery wheel. A very high  
temperature could cause the blade to become  
brittle.  
Once the blade has been sharpened, it  
must then be balanced so as to avoid  
vibration damage.  
SPARKING PLUG  
Never remove the spark plug or the  
ignition lead when checking to see if there  
is any spark, always use an approved test  
instrument.  
STORAGE  
Clean the sparking plug regularly (every 100 hours  
running). Use a wire brush for cleaning and adjust  
the correct spark gap (fig. 12).  
Change the sparking plug if the electrodes are  
excessively burnt or if the plug is damaged. The  
recommendations of the engine manufacturers are  
as follows:  
Champion J19LM (RJ19LM) or another  
equivalent spark plug ought to be used in Briggs &  
Stratton engines. Spark gap 0.7-0.8 mm.  
WINTER STORAGE  
Empty the fuel tank. Start the engine and let it run  
until it stops. The same petrol must not remain in  
the tank for more than one month.  
Tip up the mower and screw out the sparking plug.  
Pour a teaspoon of engine oil in the sparking plug  
hole. Pull out the starting handle slowly so that the  
oil is distributed in the cylinder. Screw in the  
sparking plug.  
Thoroughly clean the mower and store it indoors in  
a dry place.  
CHANGING BLADES  
Use protective gloves to prevent cuts  
when changing the blade.  
SERVICING  
Genuine spare parts are supplied by service  
workshops and by many dealers.  
Blunt and damaged blades tear off the grass and  
spoil the look of the lawn after mowing. New, well  
sharpened blades cut the grass cleanly, so that the  
lawn looks green and fresh even after mowing.
