2 DESCRIPTION
2.1 DriveThe machine is rear wheel drive.
The rear axle is equipped with a hydrostatic trans-
mission with infinitely variable forward and re-
verse gear ratios.
The rear axle is also equipped with a differential to 
facilitate turning.
Front mounted tools are driven by drive belts.
2.2 SteeringThe machine is articulated. This means that the 
chassis is divided into a front and a rear section, 
which can be turned in relation to each other.
The articulated steering means that the machine 
can turn around trees and other obstacles with an 
extremely small turning radius.
2.3 Safety systemThe machine is equipped with an electrical safety 
system. The safety system interrupts certain activ-
ities that can entail a danger of incorrect manoeu-
vres. For example, the engine cannot be started if 
the clutch-parking brake pedal is depressed.
The operation of the safety system must 
always be checked every time before 
use.
2.4 Controls
2.4.1 Implement lifter, mechanical (3:C)
To switch between working position and transport 
position:
1. Depress the pedal fully. 
2. Release the pedal slowly.
2.4.2 Clutch-parking brake (3:B)
Never press the pedal while driving. 
There is a risk of overheating in the 
power transmission.
The pedal (3:B) has the follow-
ing three positions:
•Released. The clutch is not activated. The park-
ing brake is not activated.
•Depressed halfway. Forward drive disengaged. 
The parking brake is not activated.
•Fully depressed. Forward drive disengaged. 
The parking brake is fully activated but not 
locked. This position is also used as emergency 
brake. 
						

							43
ENGLISHEN
2.4.3 Inhibitor, parking brake (3:A)
The inhibitor locks the “clutch-brake” 
pedal in the depressed position. This func-
tion is used to lock the machine on slopes, 
during transport, etc., when the engine is 
not running.
The parking brake must always be re-
leased during operation.
Locking:
1. Depress the pedal (3:B) fully. 
2. Move the inhibitor (3:A) to the right.
3. Release the pedal (3:B).
4. Release the inhibitor (3:A).
Unlocking:
Press and release the pedal (3:B).
2.4.4 Driving-service brake (3:F)
If the machine does not brake as expect-
ed when the pedal is released, the left 
pedal (1:B) should be used as an emer-
gency brake.
The pedal (3:F) determines the gearing ratio be-
tween the engine and the drive wheels (= the 
speed). When the pedal is released, the service 
brake is activated.
1. Press the pedal forward – 
the machine moves forward.
2. No load on the pedal – the ma-
chine is stationary.
3. Press the pedal backward – 
the machine reverses.
4. Reduce the pressure on the 
pedal – the machine brakes.
The service brake has no effectiveness when the 
variable transmission is disengaged. See 2.4.10.
2.4.5 Steering wheel (3:D)
The height of the steering wheel is infinitely ad-
justable. Undo the adjustment knob (3:E) on the 
steering column and raise or lower the steering 
wheel to the desired position. Tighten.
Do not adjust the steering wheel during 
operation.
Never turn the steering wheel when the 
machine is stationary with a lowered 
implement. There is a risk of abnormal 
loads on the servo and steering mecha-
nisms.2.4.6 Throttle and choke control (4:G)
If the engine runs unevenly there is a 
risk that the control is too far forward 
so that the choke is activated. This dam-
ages the engine, increases fuel con-
sumption and is harmful to the 
environment.
A control for setting the engine speed and to choke 
the engine when starting from cold. 
1. Choke – for starting a cold engine. The 
choke position is located at the front of the 
groove. 
Do not operate in this position when the 
engine is warm.
2. Full throttle – when the machine is in 
operation, full throttle should always be 
used. 
The full throttle position is approximately 
2 cm behind the choke position.
3. Idling.
2.4.7 Ignition lock/headlight (4:I)
The ignition lock is used for starting and stopping 
the engine. The ignition lock is also the switch for 
the headlight. 
Do not leave the machine with the key 
in position 2 or 3. There is a fire risk, 
fuel can run into the engine through the 
carburettor, and there is a risk of the 
battery being discharged and damaged.
Four positions:
1. Stop position – the engine is short-cir-
cuited. The key can be removed.
2. Operating position – headlight activat-
ed.
3. Operating position – headlight not acti-
vated.
4. Start position – the electric start motor 
is activated when the key is turned to the 
spring-loaded start position. Once the en-
gine has started, let the key return to oper-
ating position 3.
Turn the key to position 2 to light the headlight.
2.4.8 Power take-off (4:K)
The power take-off must never be 
engaged when the front-mounted 
implement is in transport position. This 
will destroy the belt transmission. 
						

							44
ENGLISHEN
A lever for engaging and disengaging the power 
take-off for operating front-mounted accessories. 
Two positions:
1. Lever in forward position – power take-
off disengaged.
2. Lever in backward position - power 
take-off engaged. 
2.4.9 Hour meter (2:P)
Indicates the number of working hours. Only 
works when the engine is running.
2.4.10Clutch release lever 
A lever for disengaging the variable transmission.
2WD is equipped with a lever, connected to the 
rear axle. See (5:R).
The lever enables the machine to be moved by 
hand without the help of the engine. 
The disengagement lever must never be 
between the outer and inner positions. 
This overheats and damages the trans-
mission.
Two positions:
1. Lever in the inner position – 
transmission engaged for normal 
operation.
2. Lever in the outer position – 
transmission disengaged. The 
machine can be moved by hand.
The machine may not be towed over long distances 
or at high speeds. The transmission could be dam-
aged. 
2.4.11 Seat (1:S)
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 4.4.2.
2.4.12 Engine casing (6: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 (6: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.

ENGLISHEN
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. 7.
4.2 Checking the engine oil level 
(8:H)
On delivery, the crankcase is filled with SAE 10W-
30 oil.
Always check the oil level before use 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. 
Push the dipstick down completely without screw-
ing it into place. 
Unscrew and pull the dipstick up again. Read off 
the oil level.
Top up with oil to the “FULL” mark if the oil level 
is below this mark. See fig. 10-12.
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 Level check, transmission oil
On delivery, the crankcase is filled with SAE 10W-
30 oil.
Always check the oil level before use to ensure it 
is correct. The machine should be standing on 
level ground.
1. Place the machine on a flat surface.
2. Read off the oil level in the reservoir. See fig. 9. 
The level should be level with the line. 
3. If necessary, top up with more oil.
4.4 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.

5. Starting cold engine – put the throttle control in 
the choke position. 
Starting warm engine – put the throttle control 
at full throttle (approx. 2 cm behind the choke 
position).
6.  Depress the clutch-brake pedal fully.
7.  Turn the ignition key and start the engine.
8 Once the engine has started, move the throttle 
control gradually to full throttle (approx. 2 cm 
behind the choke position) if the choke 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.
4.6 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 (11:W).
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. 
						

							47
ENGLISHEN
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 oilChange engine oil for the first time after 5 hours of 
operation, and subsequently after every 50 hours 
of operation or once a season. 
Change the oil more often (after 25 hours of oper-
ation or at least once a season) if the engine has to 
operate under demanding conditions or if the am-
bient temperature is high.
Use 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. 12:V.
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. Install the oil drainage plug and move the clamp 
back so that it clamps above the plug.
6.  Remove the dipstick and fill up with new oil.
Oil volume: 1.2 litres
7. After filling up the oil, start the engine and idle 
for 30 seconds. 
8. Check to see if there is any oil leakage.9. Stop the engine. Wait for 30 seconds and then 
check the oil level in accordance with 4.2.
5.5 Fuel filter (11:Z)Replace the fuel filter every season.
5.6 Belt transmissionsAfter 5 hours of operation, check that all the belts 
are intact and undamaged.
5.7 SteeringThe steering must be checked/adjusted after 5 
hours of operation and thereafter after 100 hours of 
operation.
5.7.1 Checks
Briefly turn the steering wheel back and forth. 
There must be no mechanical clearance in the 
steering chains.
5.7.2 Adjustment
Adjust the steering chains if required as follows:
1. Put the machine in the straight-ahead position.
2. Adjust the steering chains with the two nuts, lo-
cated under the central point. See fig. 13.
3. Adjust both nuts by the same amount until there 
is no clearance.
4. Test drive the machine straight forwards and 
check that the steering wheel is not off centre.
5. If the steering wheel is off centre, undo one nut 
and tighten the other.
Do not over-tighten the steering chains. This will 
cause the steering to become heavy and will in-
crease wear on the steering chains.
5.8 Battery
If acid comes into contact with the eyes 
or skin, this can cause serious injuries. 
If any part of the body has come into 
contact with acid, rinse immediately 
with copious amounts of water and seek 
medical assistance as soon as possible.
The battery is a valve-regulated battery with 12 V 
nominal voltage. The battery fluid does not need to 
and cannot be checked or topped up. The only 
maintenance that is required is charging, for exam-
ple after extended storage.
The battery must be fully charged be-
fore being used for the first time. The 
battery must always be stored fully 
charged. If the battery is stored while 
discharged, serious damage will occur. 
5.8.1 Charging with the engine
The battery can be charged using the engine’s gen-
erator as follows:
1. Install the battery in the machine as shown be-
low. OilSAE 10W-30

2. Place the machine outdoors or install an extrac-
tion device for the exhaust fumes.
3. Start the engine according to the instructions in 
the user guide.
4. Allow the engine to run continuously for 45 
minutes.
5. Stop the engine. The battery will now be fully 
charged.
5.8.2 Charging using battery charger
When charging using a battery charger, a battery 
charger with constant voltage must be used.
Contact your dealer to purchase a battery charger 
with constant voltage.
The battery can be damaged if a standard type 
battery charger is used. 
5.8.3 Removal/Installation
The battery is placed under the engine casing. Dur-
ing removal/installation, the following applies re-
garding connection of the cables:
• During removal. First disconnect the black ca-
ble from the battery’s negative terminal (-). 
Then disconnect the red cable from the battery’s 
positive terminal (-).
• During installation. First connect the red cable 
to the battery’s positive terminal (+). Then con-
nect the black cable to the battery’s negative ter-
minal (-).
If the cables are disconnected/connect-
ed in the wrong order, there is a risk of 
a short-circuit and damage to the bat-
tery.
If the cables are interchanged, the gen-
erator and the battery will be damaged.
The engine must never be driven with 
the battery disconnected. There is a risk 
of serious damage to the generator and 
the electrical system.
5.8.4 Cleaning
If the battery terminals are coated with oxide, they 
should be cleaned. Clean the battery terminals with 
a wire brush and lubricate them with terminal 
grease.
5.9 Air filter, engine
It is very important that the air filter is 
intact and correctly installed. Never 
start the engine without the air filter or 
if the air filter is defective.
The filter cartridge (paper filter 11:A) must be re-
placed/cleaned after every 25 hours of operation.
The pre-filter (plastic foam filter 11:B) must be re-
placed/cleaned after every 25 hours of operation.NOTE! Clean/replace the filter more often if the 
machine operates in dusty conditions.
Remove/install the air filters as follows.
1. Clean carefully around the air filter housing.
2. Dismantle the air filter cover (11:C) by remov-
ing the two screws. 
3.  Remove the filter package (11:A+B). The pre-
filter is placed over the filter cartridge. Make 
sure that no dirt gets into the carburettor.
4. Cover the intake duct with a cloth or similar 
(11:D) so that no contaminants enter the engine. 
Clean the filter housing internally.
5. Remove the pre-filter from the filter cartridge.
6. Clean the filter cartridge (paper filter) by tap-
ping it lightly against the flat surface and blow-
ing through from the inside out using 
compressed air. See fig. 15. If the filter is very 
dirty, replace it.
NOTE! The paper filter must not be rinsed 
with water, petrol or other cleaning agents. 
This will damage the filter.
7. Wash the pre-filter (plastic foam filter) in liquid 
detergent and water. See fig. 16. Let it air dry. If 
the filter is very dirty, change it.
NOTE! The plastic foam filter insert must 
never be oiled. 
8.  Install the pre-filter on the filter cartridge.

2 DESCRIPTION
2.1 TransmissionLa machine est équipée de roues arrière motrices.
L’essieu arrière est équipé d’une transmission hy-
drostatique à 5 rapports en marche avant et 1 en 
marche arrière, variables en continu.
L’essieu arrière est également équipé d’un dif-
férentiel pour faciliter le braquage.
Les outils montés à l’avant sont actionnés par 
courroies.
2.2 DirectionLa machine est articulée. Cela signifie que le châs-
sis est divisé en deux sections, avant et arrière, qui 
pivotent l’une par rapport à l’autre.
Grâce au châssis articulé, la machine possède un 
rayon de braquage très faible qui lui permet de 
contourner arbres et obstacles.
2.3 Dispositifs de sécuritéLa machine est équipée d’une sécurité électrique 
qui interrompt certaines activités susceptibles de 
provoquer des manœuvres dangereuses. Par exem-
ple, le moteur ne démarre pas lorsque la pédale 
d’embrayage et de frein de stationnement est en-
foncée.
Contrôler le fonctionnement du disposi-
tif de sécurité avant chaque utilisation.
2.4 Commandes
2.4.1 Dispositif mécanique de levage des
accessoires, (3:C)
Pour passer de la position de travail à la position de 
transport :
1. Enfoncer à fond la pédale. 
2. Relâcher la pédale progressivement.
2.4.2 Embrayage - frein de stationnement
(3:B)
Ne jamais enfoncer cette pédale pen-
dant les déplacements pour éviter toute 
surchauffe des organes de transmission.
La pédale (3:B) se règle sur trois 
positions :
•Relâchée. Lembrayage nest pas activé. Le 
frein de stationnement nest pas activé.
• Enfoncée à moitié. La marche avant est désac-
tivée. Le frein de stationnement nest pas activé.
•Totalement enfoncé. La marche avant est dés-
activée. Le frein de stationnement est tout à fait 
activé mais nest pas verrouillé. Cette position 
est également utilisée comme frein d’arrêt d’ur-
gence.
