Warning! Do not put hands or feet under
the cover of the machine when it is running.
Warning! Before starting any repair work,
remove the spark plug cable from the
spark plugs.
IMPORTANT
Certain models do not have a throttle. The motor
speed is set for optimal function and minimal exhaust emissions.
ASSEMBLING
HANDLEBAR
Before starting the mower the first time, you
should charge the battery for 24 hours. Refer also
to the section titled 'MAINTENANCE, BATTERY'.
USING THE MOWER
BEFORE STARTING
FILL THE CRANKCASE WITH OIL
The lawn mower is delivered without
any oil in the motor crankcase. The
crankcasemust, therefore, befilled with
oil before the motor is started the first
time.
1. Remove the oil dipstick (fig. 6,7,8,9).
2. 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.
3. Fill until the oil reaches the “FULL/MAX”
mark on the dip stick.Do not fill with too much
oil.
Lift the upper part of the handlebar and position it
behind the machine. Move the lower part of the
handlebar upwards and tighten the locking knobs
A (fig. 1).
Then fittheupper partof the handlebar. Asecuring
eye for the starting handle is fitted on the righthand side (fig. 2).
Storageposition: Slacken the locking knobs on the
lower part of the handlebar and move it forwards.
Then slacken the locking knobs on the upper part
of the handlebar and move it backwards (fig. 3).
Note that you must check to make sure that the
wiresdo notfasten andbreak whenthesteering handle is moved upwardsor into the storage position.
CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL
Check beforeusing the machinethat the oillevel is
between “FULL/MAX” and “ADD/MIN” on the
dipstick.
Briggs & Stratton, Honda: Remove and dry the
dipstick (fig. 6,7,8). 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: Clean the area round the oil plug, then
remove the plug (fig. 9). If the oil is not level with
the edgeof the hole, carefully pourin clean oil. Replace the oil plug.
GB
ENGLISH
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.
Never fill 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.
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.
STARTING THE ENGINE
(Briggs & Stratton, Tecumseh)
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. If the lawnmower is equipped with a throttle lever, set throttle lever N in full throttle position
(fig. 10,11).
4. When starting a cold engine: Press down the
primer fully three times (fig. 12,13,14).
When starting a warm engine the primer
doesn’t need to be used. If the engine stops due
to a lack of petrol, refill and press down the
primer three times.
5. 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. 10,11).
6. Tofacilitate starting of the engine - press down
the handlebar so that the front wheels lift slightly from the ground. Do not start in tall grass.
Multiclip 46 S : Grasp the starter handle and
start the engine by pulling briskly on the starter
handle.
Keep handsandfeetwell away fromthe
rotating blade(s). Never put your hand
or foot under the b lade casing or in the
grass evacuation unit while the motor is
running.
STARTING THE ENGINE (Honda)
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. Open the fuel cock (fig. 15).
4. Move the throttle control N to the chokeposition . Note! Don't use the choke position
when the engine is warm (fig. 10).
5. 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. 10).
6. Grasp the starter handle and start the engine by
pulling briskly on the starter handle.
7. 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.
Keep handsandfeetwell away fromthe
rotating blade(s). Never put your hand
or foot under the b lade casing or in the
grass evacuation unit while the motor is
running.
ENGAGE/DISENGAGE THE DRIVE
Engage the drive by pressing coupling clamp I
against thesteering handle. Disengagethe drive by
releasing coupling clamp I (fig. 10,11).
By pressingdown the handlebar sothat the driving
wheels release theirgrip on the ground, turning,reversing, moving round trees etc. can be done without having to disengage the drive system.
Multiclip 46 SE: Start theengine by turning the
starterkeyclock-wise.Releasethekeyas soonas
theengine starts.Alwaysmake short attempts at
starting to prevent discharging the battery.
7. To achieve the best cutting results, you should
always run the engine at full-speed.
ENGLISH
GB
STOPPING THE ENGINE
The motor may be very warm immediatelyafter it isshut off.Do not touchthe
silencer,cylinderor cooling flanges as it
can cause burns and injury.
1. Release Start/Stop brace G to stop the engine
(fig. 10, 11). This brace must not be disengaged
(e.g. through fixing it in the depressed position
against the steering), as the engine cannot be
stopped.
Honda: Close the fuel cock.
2. If the lawn mower is left unattended to, remove
the lead from the spark plug.
Multiclip 46 S E: Also remove the starter key.
If the start/stoploop 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.
Amachine withMULCHERsystem cuts thegrass,
chops it finely and then blows it down in the lawn.
The grass clippings need not to be collected.
Note! the height setting works in the opposite direction on the back axle respective front axle.
Make sure you set the same cutting height on all
wheels (fig. 16).
MAINTENANCE
Noserviceistobemadeonthemotoror
grass cutter unit without first switching
off the motor and removing the spark
plug cable from t he spark plug.
Multiclip 46 SE: No service measures
should be carried out on the engine or
lawn mower if the battery terminal is
not disconnected from the engine terminal (fig. 5).
Stop the motor and remove the spark
plug cable if the mower is to be lifted,
e.g. with transportation.
If the machine has to be inclined w hen
replacingblades, changingoil,cleaning,
etc., you should slacken the locking
knobs and move the steering handle forwards. Raise the mower backwards to
allow themachine to reston the steering
brace as shown in (fig. 17).
CLEANING
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.
3. Always keep it clean under the mower casing.
4. Always use a well sharpened blade.
5. Avoid mowing when the grass is wet. Thegrass
thensticks to theunderside ofthe 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 a quick setting with 4 cutting
heights on each wheel.
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.
Note! High pressure washing units should not be
used. If grass has dried on to the cutterhead 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 regularlyto remove grass, dirt and
flammable waste products.
Note that you should clean the area under the timing gear casing once or twice a year. Set at the lowestmowingheight.Slackenthescrews and remove
the timinggear casing (fig.18). Clean with abrush
or compressed air.
GB
ENGLISH
The inside of the drive wheels should be cleaned
once a season. To clean a wheel, remove the hubcap, screw, washer, and wheels. Brush or blow the
gear and the gear ring on the wheel to clean them
from grass and dirt (fig. 19). Remount the wheel.
COOLING SYSTEM
Before use, the engine's cooling system should be
cleaned. Clean the cylinder's cooling fins and the
airintake, removingany grasscuttings, dirtand the
like.
LUBRICATION
Setat the lowestcutting height.Slacken thescrews
and remove the transmission casing. Lubricate the
driveshaftby theslide bearingswith oilor oilspray
at least once a season (fig. 20).
CHANGING OIL
Replacethe oil when the engineis warm
and the fuel tank is empty. Take care
while draining as the oil is hot, this is to
prevent burns.
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 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 / LS 38: Carefully remove the air cleaner so that no dirt falls down into
the carburettor (fig. 21). Take out the foam plastic
filter element and wash it in liquid detergent and
water. Dry thefilter element. Poura little oilon the
filter element and squeeze it in. Refit the air cleaner.
Wash the filter e very three months or every 25
hours running, whichever comes first, or more frequently if used in dusty conditions.
Briggs & Stratton ES 45: Loosen the screw and
fold down the cover of the air cleaner. Carefully
remove the filter cartridge (fig. 22). Knock it
against a flat surface. Replace the filter cartridge
with a new one if it is still dirty.
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.
Honda: Take off the cover then remove the filter
(Fig. 23). Check the filter carefully for holes or
other damage. A broken or damagedfilter must be
replaced.
To remove dirt, tap the filter several times against
a hard surface, or blowcompressed air throughthe
filter from the back. Try not to clean the filter by
brushing, as this will force the dirt into the fibres.
A very dirty filter should be replaced.
Clean the air filter after every 25 hours of use, or
once every season; more often if the motor is used
on dusty terrain.
Tecumseh: Check the air filter after every 25
hours of use, more often if the engine is used in
dusty conditions. If the foam filter is dirty or
blocked it should be replaced.
Dismantle the cover A. Clean inside the cover A
and the filter support E, (fig. 24). Soak the foam
filter C with two teaspoons (approx. 20 ml) of engine oil. Massage the filter with a clean cloth to remove any excess oil. Also check the seal D,
replace it if damaged or deformed.
Refit the cover A.
SPARKING PLUG
Never removethe spark plug ortheignition lead when checking to see if there is
any spark, always use an approved test
instrument.
Clean thesparking plugregularly (every 100hours
running). Use a wire brush for cleaning and adjust
the correct spark gap (fig. 25).
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:
Briggs& Stratton:Champion J19LM(RJ19LM),
Spark gap 0,75 mm.
Honda: BPR6ES (NGK),
Spark gap 0,7-0,8 mm.
ENGLISH
GB
Tecumseh: Champion RJ17LM, RJ19LM,
Spark gap 0,6 mm.
BATTERY (Multiclip 46 SE)
Electrolyte in the batteryis toxic and
corrosive.Itcancause serious corrosion
damage etc. Avoidall contact with skin,
eyes and clothing.
In normal use during the season, the battery is
charged by the engine.If the engine cannot be started with the starter key ,it may be because the battery
is'dead'. Connectthebattery char ger tothe terminal
on the battery and put on charge for 24 hours (fig.
5). On completionof char ging, connect the battery
terminal to the terminal on the motor.
Note! The battery charger must not 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
3. When the clutch loop is
pressed in approx. 2 cm (position 1) there should be some resistance when moving the
mower backwards. With the
clutch loop fully pressed in (position2) itshouldnot bepossible
to pull the mower backwards.
Loosen the locking nut U and
screw out the nipple T until this
position is achieved.
4.Finally tighten the locking nut
U.
CHANGING BLADES
Use protective gloves to prevent cuts
when changing blades/knifeblades.
Blunt and damaged blades tear off the grass and
spoil thelook of the lawn after mowing. New,well
sharpened blades cut the grass cleanly, so that the
lawn looks green and fresh even after mowing.
Store the lawn mower for the winter with the battery well-charged in a dry and cool place (between
0° C and +15° C). At least once during the winter
storage period the battery should be maintenancecharged. Before the start of the season the battery
should be charged once again for 24 hours.
ADJUSTING THE CLUTCH CABLE
If the drive does not engage when the coupling
clamp is pressed against the steering handle the
reason may be that the clutch cable is too slack.
Adjust as follows:
1. Remove the transmission cover by unscrewing
the screws S (fig. 18).
2. When the clutch loop is released it should be
possible to pull the mower backwards without
any resistance. If this is not the case, loosen the
lockingnut Uand screw inthe nippleT until the
mower can be moved backwards (fig. 26).
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 K. Fit the
new blade so that the stamped STIGA logotype is
turned facing the blade attachment (and not facing
the grass). Refit the washer andscrew. Tighten the
screw fully to a torque of 40 Nm (fig. 27).
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 original spare parts. Nonauthentic 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
sharpened on anemery wheel. A very high temperature could cause the blade to become brittle.
GB
Once the blade has been sharpened, it
must then be balanced so as to avoid vibration damage (fig. 28).
ENGLISH
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.
