ENGLISH
The components for assembling the upper section
of the steering are fitted for packing purposes. Re-
move the components from the lower section of
the steering.
SYMBOLS
The following symbols are displayed on the ma-
chine in order to remind you about the safety pre-
cautions and attention necessary when using the
machine.
Then attach the upper part of the handlebar with
screws, washers and locking knobs (fig. 2).
The handlebar has four different positions. Release
the catch with the foot and move the handlebar to
the desired position (fig. 3).
The symbols mean:
Warning! Read the Instruction Book and
Safety Manual before using the machine.
1. For normal mowing.
2. For mowing under trees, shrubs etc.
3. Parking position.
Warning! Keep spectators away. Beware
of objects being flung out.
4. Transportation and storage position. The han-
dlebar takes up less room if the locking knobs
are loosened and the handlebar folded in.
Warning! Do not put hands or feet under
the cover of the machine when it is run-
ning.
CABLE HOLDER
Put the wires into the cable holder (fig. 4).
EYELET FOR STARTER HANDLE
Warning! Before starting any repair work,
remove the spark plug cable from the
spark plugs.
Attach the starter handle to the eyelet on the steer-
ing handle (fig. 5).
USING THE MOWER
IMPORTANT
BEFORE STARTING
Certain models do not have a throttle. The motor
speed is set for optimal function and minimal ex-
haust emissions.
FILL THE CRANKCASE WITH OIL
The lawn mower is delivered without any
oil in the engine crankcase. The crank-
case must, therefore, be filled with oil be-
fore the engine is started the first time.
ASSEMBLING
EJECTION SHIELD
Remove the oil dipstick (fig. 6, 7).
Under no condition mustthe machine be
started without the ejection shield being
fitted on the machine. If it is not fitted,
stones and other flying objects may eas-
ily be ejected by the rotating blade.
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.
The parts for assembly of the ejector shield are at-
tached to the packaging. Remove the parts and as-
semble the ejector shield according to fig. l.
Tighten the screws securely.
CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL
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.
HANDLEBAR
Hinge up the lower part of the handlebar.

ENGLISH
Briggs & Stratton:
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.
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.
Tecumseh:
STOP OF ENGINE
Clean the area round the oil plug, then remove the
plug (fig. 7). If the oil is not level with the edge of
the hole, carefully pour in clean oil. Replace the oil
plug.
The engine may be very warm immedi-
ately after it is shut off. Do not touch the
silencer, cylinder or cooling flanges as it
can cause burns and injury.
FILL UP THE PETROL TANK
1. Release Start/Stop-loop G (fig. 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.
Fill with petrol before starting the en-
gine. Never remove the filler cap or fill
with petrol while the engine is running
or still warm.
Never fill the fuel tank completely full
but allow a little room for the petrol to
expand.
2. If the lawn mower is left unattended to, remove
the lead from the spark plug.
CUTTING HEIGHT
Always use pure unleaded petrol. You must never
use 2-stroke petrol mixed with oil.
Shut off the engine before adjusting the
cutting height.
Note that you should always remember that petrol
is a perishable commodity. Never buy more petrol
than what you can use up in 30 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.
STARTING THE ENGINE
1. Place the lawn mower on flat, firm ground. Do
not start in high grass.
The cutting height can be adjusted to three posi-
tions by moving the wheel axles (fig. 11).
2. Make sure the spark plug lead is connected to
the spark plug.
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 work-
shop for repairs.
3. If the lawn mower is equipped with a throttle le-
ver, set throttle lever B in full throttle position
(fig. 8).
4. When starting a cold engine: Press down the
primer fully three times (fig. 9, 10).
MAINTENANCE
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.
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.
5. Press in the Start/Stop-loop G against the steer-
ing. Note that the Start/Stop loop G must be
kept pressed-in to prevent the engine from stop-
ping (fig. 8).
Stop the engine and remove the spark
plug cable if the mower is to be lifted,
e.g. with transportation.
6. Grasp the starter handle and start the engine by
pulling briskly on the starter handle.
If the machine is to be tilted the fuel tank
must be emptied and the sparking plug
of the engine kept upwards.
7. To achieve the best cutting results, you should
always run the engine at full-speed.

Tecumseh:
CLEANING
Check the air filter after every 25 hours of use,
more often if the engine is used in dusty condi-
tions. If the foam filter is dirty or blocked it should
be replaced.
After each time it is used the mower should be
cleaned. This is particularly important on the un-
derside of the mower casing. Wash out with the
garden hose. The mower will then last longer and
function better.
Dismantle the cover A. Clean inside the cover A
and the filter support E, (fig. 13). Soak the foam
filter C with two teaspoons (approx. 20 ml) of en-
gine oil. Massage the filter with a clean cloth to re-
move any excess oil. Also check the seal D,
replace it if damaged or deformed.
High pressure washing units should not be used. If
grass has dried on to the mower casing it can be re-
moved by scraping. If necessary, give the under-
side a touch of paint to prevent rusting.
Clean the silencer and the surrounding
area regularly to remove grass, dirt and
flammable waste products.
Refit the cover A.
SPARKING PLUG
Never remove the spark plug or the igni-
tion lead when checking to see if there is
any spark, always use an approved test
instrument.
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.
Clean the sparking plug regularly (every 100 hours
running). Use a wire brush for cleaning and adjust
the correct spark gap (fig. 14).
CHANGING OIL
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 sparking plug if the electrodes are ex-
cessively burnt or if the plug is damaged. The rec-
ommendations of the engine manufacturers are as
follows:
Champion J19LM (RJ19LM) or another equiva-
lent spark plug ought to be used in Briggs & Strat-
ton engines. Spark gap 0.76 mm.
Change the oil the first time after 5 hours of oper-
ation, and subsequently after every 50 hours of op-
eration 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.
Champion RJ17LM, RJ19LM or another equiva-
lent spark plug ought to be used in Tecumseh en-
gines. Spark gap 0.6 mm.
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.
CHANGING BLADES
Use protective gloves to prevent cuts
when changing the blade.
AIR FILTER
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.
A dirty and blocked air filter reduces the engine
output and increases engine wear.
Briggs & Stratton:
Always check the blade after an impact. First dis-
connect the ignition cable. If the blade system has
been damaged the defective parts must be
changed. Always use genuine spare parts.
Carefully remove the air cleaner so that no dirt
falls down into the carburettor (fig. 12). 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. Re-
fit the air cleaner.
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. 15).
Wash the filter every three months or every 25
hours running, whichever comes first, or more fre-
quently if used in dusty conditions.

ENGLISH
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 ob-
stacles.
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 per-
sonal injury or damage, even if they fit the ma-
chine.
SHARPENING OF THE BLADE
Sharpening of the blade must be done by wet meth-
od 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 temper-
ature could cause the blade to become brittle.
Once the blade has been sharpened, it
must then be balanced so as to avoid vi-
bration damage.
STORAGE
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.
