67 ENGLISHEN 2.4.17 Seat (1:T) The seat can be folded and adjusted front- rear. The seat can be adjusted as follows: 1. Move the control lever (1:T) upwards. 2. Set the seat to the desired position. 3. Release the control lever (1:S) to lock the seat. The seat is equipped with a safety switch that is connected to the machine’s safety system. This means that certain dangerous activities are not pos- sible when there is nobody sitting on the seat. Also see 4.3.2. 2.4.18 Engine casing (7:U) In order to access the fuel cock, battery and engine, the machine has an engine casing that can be opened. The engine cas- ing is locked with a rubber strap. The engine casing is opened as follows: 1. Undo the rubber strap (7:V) at the front edge of the casing. 2. Carefully lift the engine casing back. Close in the reverse order. The machine may not be operated un- less the engine casing is closed and locked. Risk of burns and crushing in- juries. 2.4.19Quick-release mounting (34:H) The quick connections can be separated, which makes it very easy to shift between the different implements. The quick connections allow the deck to be moved easily between the two posi- tions: • Normal position with fully tensioned belt. • 4 cm behind the normal position with slackened belt so that the deck gets closer to the base ma- chine. As the belt idler is released from the belt, the quick connections simplify belt and deck replacement, and also make shifting to the washing position and service positions easier. Releasing the belt tension: 1. Remove the locking pins (34:G) from both sides. 2. Open the quick connections by depressing their rear sections with your heel. See (34:F). When the quick connections are opened, the deck arms rest loosely in the shaft sections. The deck must never be set to the service position or washing position without relocking the quick connections after unhooking the deck belt.3. Carry out the necessary corrective action, e.g.: • Unhook the belt. • Replace the deck by unhooking the deck arms. See fig. 36. Tensioning the belt: First tension one side and then the other according to the instructions below. Do not turn the lever using your hands. Risk of crushing injuries. 1. Place your foot on the lever (34:J) and carefully turn a half turn forwards. 2. Install the locking pin (34:G). 3. Carry out the above on the other side. 3 AREAS OF USE The machine may only be used for the following tasks using the genuine STIGA accessories stated.

68 ENGLISHEN 4 STARTING AND OPERATION The machine may not be operated un- less the engine casing is closed and locked. Risk of burns and crushing in- juries. 4.1 Filling with petrolAlways use lead-free petrol. You must never use 2- stroke petrol mixed with oil. The tank holds 14 litres. The level can easily be read through the transparent tank. NOTE! Ordinary lead-free petrol is a perishable and must not be stored for more than 30 days. Environmental petrol can be used, i.e. alkylate petrol. This type of petrol has a composition that is less harmful for people and nature. Petrol is highly inflammable. Always store fuel in containers that are made especially for this purpose. Only fill or top up with petrol outdoors, and never smoke when filling or top- ping up. Fill up with fuel before starting the engine. Never remove the filler cap or fill with petrol while the engine is running or still warm. Never completely fill the petrol tank. Leave an empty space (= at least the entire filler tube plus 1 - 2 cm at the top of the tank) to allow the petrol to expand when it warms up without overflowing. See fig. 8. 4.2 Checking the engine oil levelOn delivery, the crankcase is filled with SAE 10W- 40 oil. Check the oil level every time before using to ensure it is correct. The machine should be standing on level ground. Wipe around the dipstick. Unscrew and pull it up. Wipe the dipstick. Pro 16, Pro 20, Pro25: Push the dipstick down completely and screw into place. Unscrew and pull the dipstick up again. Read off the oil level. Pro Svan: Push the dipstick down completely without screw- ing it into place. Pull it up again and read off the oil level. Top up with oil to the “FULL” mark if the oil level is below this mark. See fig. 9-11. The oil level must never exceed the “FULL” mark. This results in the engine overheating. If the oil level exceeds the “FULL” mark, the oil must be drained until the correct level is achieved. 4.3 Safety checksCheck that the results of the safety checks below are achieved when testing the machine in question. The safety checks must always be car- ried out every time before use. If any of the results below is not achieved, the machine must not be used! Take the machine to a service workshop for repair. 4.3.1 General safety check 4.3.2 4.3.3 Electrical safety check The operation of the safety system should always be checked every time before use.

69 ENGLISHEN 4.4 Start1. Open the fuel cock. See 14. 2. Check that the spark plug cable(s) is/are in- stalled on the spark plug(s). 3. Check to make sure that the power take-off is disengaged. 4. Do not keep your foot on the drive pedal (3:F). 5. Put the throttle control at full throttle. Starting cold engine – pull the choke control out fully. Starting warm engine – the choke control should be pressed in. 6. Depress the clutch-brake pedal (3:B) fully. 7. Turn the ignition key and start the engine. 8 Once the engine has started, push the choke control in gradually if it has been used. 9. When starting from cold, do not make the ma- chine work under load immediately, but let the engine run for a few minutes first. This will al- low the oil to warm up. When the machine is in operation, full throttle should always be used. 4.5 Power assisted steering (Pro20, Pro25, Pro Svan) Power assisted steering means that power from the machine’s hydraulic system is supplied to the steering wheel movements. This makes the ma- chine very easy to steer when the engine is operat- ing at working revs (full throttle). The servo effect is reduced as the engine speed drops. 4.6 Operating tipsAlways check that there is the correct volume of oil in the engine. This is particularly important when operating on slopes. See 4.2. Be careful when driving on slopes. No sudden starting or stopping when driv- ing up or down a slope. Never drive across a slope. Move from the top down or from the bottom to the top. The machine may not be driven on slopes greater than 10º in any direction.Reduce the speed on slopes and when making sharp turns in order to retain control and reduce the risk of tipping over. Do not turn the steering wheel to full lock when driving in top gear and at full throttle. The machine can easily topple over. Keep hands and fingers well away from articulated steering joint and seat bracket. Risk of crushing injuries. Nev- er drive with the engine casing open. 4.7 StopDisengage the power take-off. Apply the parking brake. Allow the engine to idle 1-2 mins. Stop the engine by turning off the ignition key. Shut off the petrol cock. This is particularly impor- tant if the machine is to be transported on a trailer for example. If the machine is left unattended, re- move the spark plug cable(s) and re- move the ignition key. The engine may be very warm immedi- ately after it is shut off. Do not touch the silencer, cylinder or cooling fins. This can cause burn injuries. 4.8 Cleaning To reduce the risk of fire, keep the en- gine, silencer, battery and fuel tank free from grass, leaves and oil. To reduce the risk of fire, regularly check the machine for oil and/or fuel leakage. Clean the machine after each use. The following instructions apply for cleaning: • When washing the machine with water under high pressure, do not point the jet directly at axle seals, electrical components or hydraulic valves. • Do not spray water directly at the engine. • Clean the engine with a brush and/or com- pressed air. • Clean the engine’s cooling air intake (9-11:W). • Only Pro25: Clean the oil cooler (12:X). Status Action Result Cruise control acti- vated.The clutch-brake pedal is depressed.The cruise control will be disen- gaged. The switch for the implement lifter is in neutral position. (not Pro16)Try to engage the power take-off.It will not be possible to engage the power take- off.

70 ENGLISHEN 5 MAINTENANCE 5.1 Service programmeIn order to keep the machine in good condition as regards reliability and operational safety as well as from an environmental perspective, STIGA’s Ser- vice programme should be followed. The contents of this programme can be found in the attached service log. Basic service must always be carried out by an au- thorised workshop. First service and intermediate service should be carried out by an authorised workshop, but can also be carried out by the user. The content of this can be found in the service log and the actions are described under “4 STARTING AND OPERA- TION” as well as below. Servicing carried out at an authorised workshop guarantees professional work using genuine spare parts. At each basic service and intermediate service car- ried out at an authorised workshop, the service log is stamped. A service log presenting these services is a valuable document that improves the ma- chine’s second-hand value. 5.2 PreparationAll service and all maintenance must be carried out on a stationary machine with the engine switched off. Prevent the machine from rolling by al- ways applying the parking brake. Stop the engine. Prevent unintentional starting of the engine by disconnecting the spark plug cable(s) from the spark plug(s) and re- moving the ignition key. 5.3 Tyre pressureAdjust the air pressure in the tyres as follows: Front: 0.6 bar (9 psi). Rear: 0.4 bar (6 psi). 5.4 Changing engine oil, filterThis section contains tables covering the different engines that are included in STIGA’s Pro range. To facilitate reading, mark the data that applies to the relevant machine/engine.5.4.1 Change intervals The table below states hours of operation and cal- endar months. Carry out the relevant action at whichever occurs first. Change the oil more frequently if the engine has to operate in demanding conditions or if the ambient temperature is high. 5.4.2 Engine Oil Use syntetic oil according to the table below. Use oil without any additives. Do not fill with too much oil. This can cause the engine to overheat. Change oil when the engine is warm. The engine oil may be very hot if it is drained off directly after the engine is shut off. Therefore allow the engine to cool a few minutes before draining the oil. 1. Attach the clamp on the oil drainage hose. Use a polygrip or similar. See fig. 15-17:Y. 2. Move the clamp up 3-4 cm on the oil drainage hose and pull out the plug. 3. Collect the oil in a collection vessel. NOTE! Do not spill any oil on the drive belts. 4. Hand in the oil for disposal in accordance with local provisions. 5.
