SYMBOLS
The following symbols appear on the machine. 
They are there to remind you of the care and atten-
tion required in use.
This is what the symbols mean:Warning! Read the Instruction Book and 
Safety Manual before using the machine.
Warning! Keep onlookers away. Beware 
of objects being flung out.
Warning! Do not insert your hands or feet 
under the deck when the machine is in op-
eration.
Warning! Before starting any repair work, 
remove the spark plug cable from the 
spark plug.
Warning! Always tilt the lawn-
mower backwards when cleaning 
the underside. Petrol and oil can 
run out if the lawnmower is tilted 
in the other direction.
IMPORTANT
Certain models do not have  throttle control. The 
engine’s speed is set for optimal function and min-
imal exhaust emissions.
ASSEMBLY
HANDLE
Fold up the lower part of the handle.
Then attach the upper part of the handle. This is at-
tached with screws, washers and locking wheels 
(fig. 1).
The handle has four different positions. Release 
the catch with your foot and set the handle in de-
sired position (fig. 2).
1. For normal mowing.
2. For mowing under trees, bushes, etc. 3. Parking position.
4. Delivery and storage position. The handle takes 
up less space if the knobs are released and the 
handle folded up.
NOTE! Check that the wires are not caught or bro-
ken when the handle is unfolded or folded.
CONTROLS
Install the wires and electric cable (Multiclip 46 
SE) in the cable holders  E (fig. 3). Secure the start-
er handle in lug  F on the right hand side of the han-
dle.
BATTERY (Multiclip 46 SE)
The electrolyte in the battery is toxic 
and corrosive. It can cause serious cor-
rosion damage etc. Avoid all contact 
with skin, eyes and clothing. 
Before starting for the first time the battery should 
be charged for 24 hours, see further information 
under the heading MAINTENANCE, BATTERY. 
USING THE MOWER
BEFORE STARTING
FILL THE CRANKCASE WITH OIL
The lawnmower is delivered without 
any oil in the engine crankcase. The 
crankcase must be filled with oil before 
the engine is started for the first time.
1. Remove the oil dipstick (fig. 5, 6, 7).
2. Fill the engine’s crankcase with 0.55 litres of  good quality oil (service class SE, SF or SG). 
Use SAE 30 or SAE 10W-30 oil.
3. Slowly fill to ‘FUL L/MAX’. Do not overfill.
CHECK 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.
Briggs Stratton:
Remove and wipe off the dipstick (fig. 5, 6). Slide it 
down completely  and tighten it. Unscrew and pull it 
up again. Read off the oil le vel. If the oil level is low, 
fill with oil up to the ‘FULL/MAX’ mark. 
						

							
ENGLISHGB
Honda:Remove and wipe off the dipstick (fig. 7). Insert the 
dipstick fully, but do not screw it into the thread. 
Pull it up again. Read off the oil level. If the oil level 
is low, fill with oil up to the ‘FULL/MAX’ mark.
FILL UP THE PETROL TANK Never remove the filler cap or fill with 
petrol while the engine is running or still 
warm.
Never completely fill the petrol tank. Al-
low a little room for the petrol to expand 
if necessary.
Some engines have an extra safety cover under the 
regular fuel cap. This must not be reinstalled.
Preferably use an envir onmentally friendly petrol, 
i.e. alkylate petrol. This type of petrol has a com-
position that is less harmful to people and nature. 
It has e.g. no lead additives, no oxygenators (alco-
hols and ethers), no alkenes and no benzene.
NOTE! If you change to environmental-
ly friendly petrol in an engine previously 
run on ordinary lead-free petrol (95), 
the petrol manufacturer’s recommenda-
tions must be followed carefully.
Ordinary lead-free 95 octane petrol can also be 
used. You must never use 2-stroke petrol mixed 
with oil. NOTE! Bear in  mind that ordinary lead-
free petrol is a perishable; do not purchase more 
petrol than can be used within thirty days.
STARTING THE ENGINE 
(Briggs & Stratton)
1. Place the lawnmower on flat, firm ground. Do  not start in long grass.
2. Make sure the spark plug cable is connected to  the spark plug.
3. If the lawnmower is equipped with throttle con- trol, set the throttle control  N to full throttle   
(fig. 8, 9).
4. When starting a cold engine: Press down the  primer fully 6 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 fuel, refill and press down the primer 3 
times. 5. Press the Start/Stop loop
G towards the handle. 
NOTE! The Start/Stop loop G must be kept 
pressed in to prevent th e engine stopping (fig.  
8, 9).
6. For ease of starting, press down the handle so  that the front wheels lift slightly from the 
ground. Do not start in thick grass.
Multiclip 46 S Grasp the starter handle and start 
the engine by pulling briskly on the starter cord.
Multiclip 46 SE:  Start the engine by turning the 
ignition key clockwise. Release the key as soon 
as the engine starts. Always make short at-
tempts at starting in order to prevent the battery 
running down.
7. For the best mowing results, the engine should  always be driven at full throttle.
Keep hands and feet away from the ro-
tating blade. Never put your hand or 
foot under the blade casing or in the 
grass ejector while the engine is run-
ning.
STARTING THE ENGINE (Honda)
1. Place the lawnmower on flat, firm ground. Do not start in long grass.
2. Make sure the spark plug cable is connected to  the spark plug.
3. Open the fuel tap (fig.  12).
4. Move the throttle control  N to the choke posi-
tion  . NOTE! It is not  necessary to use the 
choke position when the engine is warm (fig.  
8).
5. Press the Start/Stop loop G towards the handle. 
NOTE! The Start/Stop loop G must be kept 
pressed in to prevent th e engine stopping (fig.  
8).
6. Grasp the starter handle and start the engine by  pulling briskly on the starter cord.
7. When the engine starts, move the throttle con- trol backwards until ma x. revs are obtained. 
NOTE! The engine shoul d always be run at 
maximum revs to avoid abnormal machine vi-
brations.
Keep hands and feet away from the ro-
tating blade. Never put your hand or 
foot under the blade casing while the en-
gine is running. 
						

							
ENGLISHGB
ENGAGING/DISENGAGING THE 
DRIVE
Engaging the drive is facilitated by pressing 
down the handlebar so that the driving wheels 
are raised slightly from the ground.
Engage the drive by pressing the clutch loop I to-
wards the handle. Disengage the drive by releasing 
the clutch loop  I (fig.  8, 9).
By allowing the driving wheels to be raised slight-
ly from the ground, turning, reversing, moving 
round trees, etc., can be pe rformed without having 
to disengage the drive system.
STOPPING THE ENGINE
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.
1. Release Start/Stop loop  G to stop the engine 
(fig.  8, 9). This loop must not be disengaged 
(e.g. by setting it in the depressed position 
against the handle), as it  will not be possible to 
stop the engine.
Honda:  Close the fuel tap.
2. If the lawnmower is left unattended, remove the  spark plug cable from the spark plug. 
Multiclip 46 SE:  Also remove the starter key.
If the start/stop loop ceases to work, stop 
the engine by removing the spark plug 
cable from the spark plug. Immediately 
take the lawnmower to an authorised 
workshop for repair.
DRIVING TIPS
Before mowing the lawn, take care to remove any 
stones, toys and other hard objects.
A machine with the MULTICLIP system cuts the 
grass, chops it finely and th en blows it down into the 
lawn. The grass clippings  need not be collected.
The following rules should be observed to give the 
best MULTICLIP 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. Ensure that the area under the mower casing is  always kept clean. 4. Always use a well-sharpened blade.
5. Avoid mowing when the grass is wet. The grass 
sticks more easily to the underside of the cas-
ing, giving poorer mowing results.
CUTTING HEIGHT
Shut off the engine before adjusting the 
cutting height.
Do not set the cutting height so low that 
the blades come into contact with une-
ven ground.
The lawnmower has rapid setting with 4 cutting 
heights on the front wheels.
It is possible to vary the rear cutting height by 
moving the wheel axle thr ough four positions (fig. 
13).
Make sure that you have the same cutting height 
set on all wheels.
MAINTENANCE
No servicing is to be carried out on the 
engine or mower unit without first 
switching off the engine and removing 
the spark plug cable from the spark 
plug.
Multiclip 46 SE: No servicing may be 
carried out on the engine or mower unit 
without disconnecting the battery termi-
nal from the terminal on the motor (fig.  
4).
Stop the engine and remove the spark 
plug cable if the mower is to be lifted, 
e.g. during transportation.
If the machine needs to be tilted, the fuel 
tank must be emptied and the engine’s 
spark plug kept upright. 
CLEANING
After use, the mower should be cleaned. This is 
particularly important on the underside of the 
mower casing. Rinse clean with the garden hose. 
The mower will then last longer and work better.
NOTE! High-pressure washers should not be used. 
If grass has dried on to the mower casing, it can be 
scraped clean. If necessary, touch up the underside 
with paint to prevent rust damage. 
						

							
ENGLISHGB
Clean the silencer and the surrounding 
area regularly to remove grass, dirt and 
flammable waste products.
NOTE! Clean under the transmission casing once 
or twice a year. Set the lowest cutting height. Undo 
the screws and remove the transmission casing 
(fig. 14). Clean with brush or compressed air.
Once every season, the drive wheels should be 
cleaned internally. Remove the wheel cap, screw, 
washer and wheel. Clean the gear wheel and the 
wheel’s gear rim of grass  and dirt using a brush or 
compressed air (fig. 15). Replace the wheel.
COOLING SYSTEM
Before each use, the engine’s cooling system must 
be cleaned. Clean the cylinder’s cooling flanges 
and air intake of grass remains, dirt, etc.
LUBRICATION
Set the lowest cutting height. Remove the screws 
and dismantle the transmission casing. Lubricate 
the drive shaft at the glide bearings with oil/oil 
spray at least once per season (fig. 16).
OIL CHANGE
Change the oil when the engine is warm 
and the fuel tank is empty. In order to 
prevent burns, take care while draining 
as the oil is hot.
Change the oil the first time after 5 hours of oper-
ation, and subsequently every 50 hours of opera-
tion or once a season. Remove the dipstick, 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  SAE 30 or SAE 10W-30 oil. 
The crankcase holds approx.  0.55 litres. Fill until 
the oil reaches the “FULL/MAX” mark on the dip-
stick. Do not overfill.
AIR FILTER
A dirty and blocked air filter reduces the engine 
output and increases engine wear.
Briggs & Stratton LS 40/45:  Carefully remove 
the air cleaner so that no  dirt falls down into the 
carburettor (fig. 17). Remove the foam filter and 
wash it in liquid detergent and water. Dry the filter. 
Pour a little oil on the filter and squeeze it in. Re-
assemble the air cleaner. Wash the filter every three months or after every 
25 hours of use, whichever occurs first. More fre-
quently if the engine is working on dusty ground.
Briggs & Stratton ES 45: 
Undo the screw and 
fold down the cover of the air cleaner. Carefully re-
move the filter cartridge  (fig. 18). 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, whichever occurs first. More often 
if the lawnmower is used on dusty ground.
Honda:  Remove the cover and take out the filter 
(fig. 19). Carefully check the filter for holes or oth-
er damage. A broken or damaged filter must be re-
placed. 
To remove dirt, carefully knock the filter several 
times against a hard surface or use compressed air 
from the back of the filter to blow-clean. Do not try 
to brush the filter clean as this forces dirt down into 
the fibres. A very dirty fi lter should be replaced.
Clean the air filter after every 25 hours of opera-
tion or once a season. More frequently if the en-
gine is working on dusty ground.
SPARK PLUG
Never remove the spark plug or spark 
plug cable when checking to see if there 
is a spark. Use an approved test instru-
ment.
Clean the spark plug regul arly (every 100 hours of 
operation). Use a wire brus h for cleaning. Set the 
correct spark gap (fig. 20).
Change the spark plug if the electrodes are exces-
sively burnt or if the plug is damaged. The engine 
manufacturers’ recommendations are as follows: 
Briggs & Stratton:   Champion J19LM 
(RJ19LM), Spark gap 0.7-0.8 mm.
Honda:  BPR6ES (NGK), 
Spark gap 0.7-0.8 mm.
BATTERY (Multiclip 46 SE)
The electrolyte in the battery is toxic 
and corrosive. It can cause serious cor-
rosion damage etc. Avoid all 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 ignition key, it may be because the  
						

							
ENGLISHGB
battery is ‘dead’. Connect the battery charger to the 
terminal on the battery and charge for 24 hours 
(fig. 4). On completion of charging, connect the 
battery terminal to the terminal on the engine.
NOTE! The battery charger must not be connected 
directly to the engine terminal. It is not possible to 
start the engine with the charger as the power 
source and the charger could be damaged.
WINTER STORAGE
Store the lawnmower for the winter with the bat-
tery well-charged in a dry and cool place (between 
0°C and +15°C). The battery should be mainte-
nance-charged at least once during the winter stor-
age period. Before the start of the season, the 
battery should be charged once again for 24 hours. 
ADJUSTING CLUTCH CABLE 
If the drive does not engage when the clutch loop 
is pressed against the handle, or if the lawnmower 
feels cumbersome or slow, this may be because the 
clutch in the transmission  is slipping. To rectify 
this situation adjust the clutch cable.
Adjust as follows:
1. When the clutch loop is  released, it should be 
possible to push the mower without any resist-
ance. If this is not the case, screw in the nipple 
T  until the mower can be pushed (fig.  21).
2. When the clutch loop is 
pressed in approx. 2 cm (posi-
tion 1), there should be some 
resistance when pushing the 
lawnmower. With the clutch 
loop fully pressed in (position 
2) it should not be possible to 
push the mower. Unscrew the 
nipple T until this position is 
achieved.
CHANGING BLADES
Use protective gloves when changing 
blade to avoid cutting yourself.
Blunt and damaged blades tear up the grass and 
make the lawn unsightly after mowing. New well-
sharpened blades cut off the grass. This gives a 
green and fresh appearance after mowing.
Always check the blade after an impact. First dis-
connect the spark plug cable. If the blade system 
has been damaged, defective parts should be re-
placed. Always use genuine spare parts. To replace the blade, slacken the screw. Fit the new 
blade so that the stamped STIGA logo is facing the 
blade holder (not facing the grass). Reinstall the 
washer and screw. Tighten the screw properly. 
Tightening torque 40 Nm (fig. 22).
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 ob-
stacles.
When replacing the blade, blade holder and blade 
screw, always use genuine spare parts. Non-genu-
ine spare parts can entail a risk of injury or dam-
age, even if they fit the machine.
SHARPENING THE BLADES
Sharpening of the blades must be performed by 
wet grinding, using a whetstone or a grindstone.
For safety reasons, the blades should not be sharp-
ened on an emery wheel. Too high temperature 
could cause the blade to become brittle.
Once the blade has been sharpened, it 
must then be balanced to avoid vibra-
tion 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 unscrew the spark plug. 
Pour a tablespoon of engine oil into the spark plug 
hole. Pull out the starter  handle slowly so that the 
oil is distributed in the cylinder. Screw in the spark 
plug.
Thoroughly clean the mower and store it indoors in 
a dry place.
SERVICING
Genuine spare parts are  supplied by service work-
shops and by many dealers.
A list of these can be found on STIGA’s Internet 
website at:  www.stiga.com .
