ASSEMBLING
HANDLE: LOW ER PART (PRO 48/PRO 51S)
BEFORE STARTING
FILL THE CRANKCASE WITH OIL
The lawn mower is delivered without any oil in the motor crankcase. The crankcase must, therefore,befilled with oil before the motor is started the first time.
Remove the oil dipstick (fig. 7, 8, 9). 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.
Slowly fill up to the “FULL/MAX” mark. Do not fill with too much oil.
CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL
Check before using the machine that the oil level is between “FULL/MAX” and ADD/MIN” on the dipstick. The mower should stand level.
Remove and dry the dipstick (fig. 7, 8, 9). Slide it down completely and tighten it. Unscrew and pull itup again.Read-off.Iftheoil levelislow,fillwith oil up to the “FULL/MAX” mark.
Fold back and screw tight the lower part of the handle using the screws A (fig. 1).
HANDLE: UPPER PART
Fit the upper part of the handlebar (fig.2). The height of the handlebar above the ground can be adjusted within certain limits since the lower part is provided with slotted holes at the rear (fig. 3).
FILL UP THE PETROL TANK
Fill with petrol before starting th e mo­tor. Never removethe filler cap or fill with petrol while the mo tor is running or still warm.
Neverfill the fuel tank completely full but allow a little room for the petrol to expand.
Always use pure unleaded petrol. You must never use 2-stroke petrol mixed with oil.

2. Make sure the spark plug lead is connected to the spark plug.
3. When starting a cold engine: Press down the primer fully 3-9 times (fig. 10, 11).
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 3-9 times.
3. PRO 51S: Disengage the drive. Set the clutch control M to (fig. 18).
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 stop (fig. 13, 14, 15, 18).
5a Manual start: Grasp the starter handle and
start the engine by pulling briskly on the starter cord.
5bElectric start (Multiclip 51SE): Start the en-
gine by turning the starter key clockwise. Re­lease the key as soon as the engine starts. Always make short attempts at starting in order to prevent discharging the battery.
5. Move the t hrottle control N to the chokeposi-
tion . Note! Don't use the choke position when the engine is warm (fig. 16, 17).
6. 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 stop (fig. 16, 17).
7. Grasp the starter handle and start the engine by pulling briskly on the starter handle.
8. When the motor starts, move the throttle lever backwards until the max. rotation speed is ob­tained. Note! The engine should always be run at the maximum rotation speed to avoid abnor­mal engine vibrations.
Keephands and feet wellaway from the rotating blade(s). Never put your hand or fo ot under the blade c asing or in the grass evacuation unit while the engine is running.
TRANSMISSION (Multiclip 51S/51SE)
Engage the drive by pressing the coupling clamp I against the handle. Disengage the drive by releas­ing the coupling clamp I (fig. 14, 15, 17).
If you press down the handle so that the drive wheels rise off the ground, it is possible to turn, re­verse, manoeuvre around trees, etc.without having to disengage the drive.
TRANSMISSION (PRO 51S)
To facilitatestarting the engine, press down the handle so that the front wheels lift slightly from the ground.
Keephandsand feet well awayfrom the rotating blade(s). Never put your hand or foot under the blade casing or in the grass evacuation unit while the engine is running.

ENGLISH
2. Release Start/Stop-loop G to stop the engine (fig. 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18). This loop must not be disengaged (e.g. through fixing it in the de­pressed position against the steering), as t he en­gine cannot be stopped.
3. If the lawn mower is left unattended to, remove the lead from the spark plug.
Multiclip51SE: Also remove the starter key.
If the start/st op 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.
MOWING TIPS
Before mowing the lawn, take care to remove any stones toys and other hard objects.
A machine with MULCHER system cuts thegrass, chops it finely and then blows it down in the lawn. The grass clippings need not to be collected.
The following rules should be observed to give best MULCHER effect:
1. Use a high engine speed (full throttle).
2. Do not cut the grass too short. Not more than 1/ 3rd of the length should be cut off.
GB
MAINTENANCE
Noserviceistobemadeonthemotoror grass cutter unit without firs t switching off the motor and removing the spark plug cable from the spark plug.
Stop the motor and remove the spark plug cable if the mower is to be lifted, e.g. with transportation.
If the lawn mower needs to be tilted i t should be tilted so that the spark plug faceupwards. Tiltthelawnmowerwhen the fuel tank is e mpty.
COOLING SYSTEM
Beforeusing the lawn mower,the engine'scooling system must be cleaned. Clean the cylinder's cool­ing flanges and air inlet to make sure they are free from grass, dirt, etc.
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.
3. Always keep it clean under the mower casing.
4. Always use a well sharpened blade.
5. Avoid mowing when the grassiswet. Thegrass then sticks to the undersideof the casing, giving poor mowing results.
CUTTING HEIGHT
Shut off the motor before adjusting the cutting height.
Do not set the cutting height so low that the blade/blades can hit uneven ground.
The mower has single-lever control for adjusting the mowing height. Pull the lever outwards and then set the mowing height to a position suitable for the state of the lawn (fig. 19).
Note! H igh pressure washing units should not be used. If grass has dried on to the cutterhead casing it can be removed by scraping.
Clean the silencer and the surrounding area regularly to remove grass, dirt and flammable waste products.
Multiclip 51S/51SE/PRO 51S: Note! Cleaning
should be done under the transmission cover (fig.
20) once or twice during the mowing season. Re­move the transmission casing and clean with a brush or blow with compressed air.
CHANGING OIL
Replace the oil when the engine is warm and the fuel tank is empty.Take care whiledrainingastheoilishot,thisisto preventburns.
Change the oil the first time after 5 hours of oper­ation, and subsequently after every 50 hours of op­erationor 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.

ENGLISH
Fill wi th new oil: use oil of SAE 30 or SAE 10W­30 quality. The crankcase holds approx. 0.6 litre. Fill until the oil reaches the “FULL/MAX” mark on the dip stick. Do not fill with too much oil.
AIR FILTER
A dirty and blocked air filter reduces the engine output and increases engine wear.
Briggs & Stratton LS 45 (fig. 21): Carefully re­move the air cleaner so thatno dirtfalls down into the carburettor. 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.
Clean the filter every three months or after every 25 hours of use, which ever occurs first. More of­ten if the lawn mower is used on dusty ground.
Briggs & Stratton XTE 50, INTEK (fig. 22):
Loosen the screw and fold down the cover of the air cleaner. Carefully remove the filter cartridge. Knock it against a flat surface. Replace the filter cartridge w ith a new one if it is still dirty.
Clean the filter every three months or after every 25 hours of use, whichever occurs first. More often if the lawn mower is used on dusty ground.
Honda (fig. 23): Remove the cover and take out thefilter. Carefullycheckthe filterfor holesor oth­er damage. A broken or damaged filter must be re­placed.
on the battery and put on charge for 24 hours. On completion of charging, connect the battery termi­nal to the terminal on the motor.
Note! The battery charger mustnot be connected to the engine terminal. The engine cannot be started by using the charger as a source of power supply, and the charger will be damaged.
WINTER STORAGE
Store the lawn mower for the winter with the bat­terywell-chargedin a dry and cool place(between 0° C and +15° C). At least once during the winter storage period the b attery should be maintenance­charged. Before the start of the season the battery
should be charged once again for 24 hours.
SPARKING PLUG
Neverremovethesparkplugortheigni­tion lead when checking to see if there is any spark, always use an approved test instrument.
Clean the sparking plug regularly (every 100 hours running). Use a wire brush for cleaning.
Change the sparking plug if the electrodes are ex­cessively burnt or if the plug is damaged. The rec­ommendations (fig. 24) of the engine manufacturers are as follows:
Briggs & Stratton: Champion J19LM (RJ19LM). Spark gap 0.76 mm.
To remove dirt, carefully knock the filter several times against a hard surface or use compressed air from the backof the filter to blow-clean. Do nottry tobrush thefilter clean as this forces dirt downinto the fibres. A very dirty f ilter should be replaced.
Clean the air filter after every 25 hours of use or once a season. More often if the lawn mower is used on dusty ground.
BATTERY (Multiclip 51SE)
Electrolyte in the battery is toxic and corrosive.It can causeseriouscorrosion damage etc. Avoid all contact wi th skin, eyes and clothing.
In normal use during the season, the battery is chargedby the engine. If the engine cannot be start­ed withthe starter key,it may be because the battery is 'dead'.Connect the battery chargerto the terminal
Honda GCV: B PR6ES (NGK). Sparkgap0.7-0.8mm.
ADJUSTING THE CLUTCH CABLE (Multiclip 51S/51SE)
If the drive does not engage when the coupling clamp is pressed against the handle, or if the lawn mower feels cumbersome or slow, the reason may be that the coupling in the transmission slips. To rectify this situation, adjust the clutch cable as fol­lows:
1. When the clutch loop is released, it should be possible to push the mower without any resist­ance. If this is not the case, screw in the nipple T until the mower can be pushed (fig. 25).

GB
2. When the clutch loop is pressed in a pprox. 2 cm (position 1), there should be some resistance when moving the lawn mower. With the clutch loop fully pressed in (position 2, it should not be possible to movethe mower. Unscrew the nipple T untilthis posi­tion is achieved.
ADJUSTING THE CLUTCH CABLE (PRO 51S)
Control the clutch function (fig. 26):
1. Push the mower forwards and backwards with disengaged transmission.
2. Set the clutch control to the position and push the mover until the front wheels engage.
3. In this position the spring H should then be ex­tended 6 mm from it's unloaded position to give a sufficent lockforce in the transmission.
4. If the spring is not extended enough, adjust the wire nipple I at the handlebar.
5. First loosen the lock nut S and then adjust the nipple I.
6. Set the clutch control to the position and con­trol that the transmission is disengaged by roll­ing the mower to and fro.
ADJUSTING DRIVE BELT (Multiclip 51S, 51SE, PRO 51S)
Check the belt tension regularly. The drive belt is correctly adjusted when the shoulder bolt K is cen­tered in the front hole of the engine bracket (fig. 27).
Incorrect belt tension can bring about abnormal vi­brations in the steering (the belt is tensioned too tightly) or the belt can start to slide (the belt is not tensioned enough).
Adjust the drive belt like this: Stop the engine and remove the ignition cable from the spark plug. Dis­mantle the transmission casing. Loosen the screw L Pull the transmission forwardsso that the belt is tightened and tighten the screw L. The drive belt must be adjusted so that the shoulder bolt K cent­ers in the front hole of the engine assembly ring.
SHOCK-ABSORBER (PRO 48, PRO 51S)
The forward shock-absorberP (fig. 28) takes up a greater load. Check the shock-absorber twice per season. If the shock-absorber shows signs of dam­age or wear it should be replaced.
CHANGING BLADES
Useprotectiveglovestopreventcuts when changing bla des/ knifeblades.
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.
Always check the blade after an impact. First 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 screw (fig. 29). 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 screw. Tighten the screw fully to a torque of 40 Nm.
When replacing the blade, the blade screw 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 screw, always use genuine spare parts. Non­genuine spare parts could lead to the risk of per­sonal injury or damage, even if they fit the ma­chine.
SHARPENING OF THE BLADES
Sharpening of the blades must be done by wet method grinding, using a whetstone or a grind­stone.
For the sake of safety, the blades should not be sharpenedonanemerywheel.Averyhightemper­ature could cause the blade to become brittle.
Once t h e blade has been sharpened, it must then be balanced so as to avoid vi­bration damage.
