ASSEMBLY
STEERING (fig. 1)
GENERAL
Before starting the mower for the first
timeandafter winter storage, youshould
charge thebattery for 1-2 days otherwise
the battery can be damaged.
In order for the battery to maintain its
capacity and to give optimum performance, it is important that the charging
andstorageinstructionsarecarefullyfollowed.
• The battery used in this machine is a lead-acid
type battery. This type of battery must always
be stored fully charged.
• Always charge the battery indoors, in a garage,
etc. where the battery is dry and protectedfrom
the weather.
• Only charge the battery when the tempe rature is
at least 0° C and not over +40° C. Charging in
lowerorhighertemperaturescandamagethe

• Always keep the mower battery away from water, sources of heat (ovens, radiators ,open fires,
etc.) and hazardous chemicals.
1. Press the plugs intothe steering sockets.Ensure
that the plugs are inserted in the correct end.
2. Press the steering sockets into the holes in the
chassis.
3. Fit the screws. Tighten securely.
4. Attach the handlebar to the steering sockets using screws, washers and locking knobs. The
handlebar can be tilted forward by loosening
thelocking knobs slightly. Themower willthen
take up less space during transportation.
5. Fix the electrical cable using a cable tie.
• Always use the accompanying genuine Stiga
charger. Never use the charger for any other
product.
• Neverusethechargerifitisdamagedinanyway.
A damaged lead or charger should immediately
be replaced at an authorised service workshop
• Take care of the leads. Never carry the charger

charge thebatteryonceit has cooleddown(after
about 30 minutes). Do not use the mower again
until the battery is fully charged.
Important: do not allow the battery powerto completelyrundownas thismaydamagethebatteryand
shorten its operational life.
MOWING TIPS
For best cutting results and to ensure that the battery lasts as long as possible, the following rules
should be followed:
• Drive the mower at a slow and even pace
• Try to avoid excessivestarting and stopping, as
this draws a lot of current.
• Make surethatthe motor isrunning at full speed
at all times when mowing.
• Mow regularly and often, especially when the
grassisgrowingquickly. Do notmow more than
a third of the total height of the grass during one
mowing session.
• Always use a sharp blade.
Blunt and/ordamaged blades tear off the grass and
make the lawn look ugly after mowin g.New, wellsharpened blades cut off the grass andensure thatit
looks green and fresh after it has been mown.
Remove the battery. Put the accompanying wrench
(36 mm) on the hexagon holder. Loosen the blade
nut with an adjustable wrench or another type of
fixed wrench (19 mm) (fig. 10). Turn the blade nut
inan anti-clockwise direction in order to remove the
blade.
Fitthe new bladeand refitall the otherpartsexactly
as they were before they were dismantled, see fig.
10. Tighten the blade nut fully.
SHARPENING THE BLADE
W ater grinding with whetstone or a grinding stone
shouldbe used to sharpen the blade.
For safety reasons, the blade should not be sharpened on an emery wheel. Too high a temperature
can result in the blade becoming brittle.
If the blade is sharpened, it must be balanced afterwards to avoid vibration
• Do not use the mower when itis raining or when
the grass is wet.
• Make surethat the undersideof the cutting deck
is kept clean.
MAINTENANCE
Take out the safety key and remove the
battery beforeany typeofmaintenance is
carried out.
CLEANING
The mowershould be cleaned after each use. Use a
moistenedcloth or sponge and a mild soap solution.
Do not clean with water or solvents. Remove all
grass clippings which might have gathered on the
underside of the deck and in the ejector.
The grass collector, although not the mower it-self, can be cleaned with water. Grass collectionefficiency is reduced if the holes are blocked.
CHANGING THE BLADE
Check,before and after eachuse,that the
blade is tightly fixed and that it is not
damaged. A bent or damaged blade
should immediatelybereplaced.Use protective gloves to avoid cutting injuries.
