CONTROLS
SYMBOLS
Fit the wires and electric cable (only Multiclip 46
SE) in the cable retainer E (fig. 4). Secure the start-
er handle in the eyelet F on the right-hand side of
the steering handle.
The following symbols are displayed on the ma-
chine in order to remind you about the safety pre-
cautions and attention necessary when using the
machine.
BATTERY (Multiclip 46 SE)
The symbols mean:
Electrolyte in the battery is toxic and
corrosive. It can cause serious corrosion
damage etc. Avoid all contact with skin,
eyes and clothing.
Warning! Read the Instruction Book and
Safety Manual before using the machine.
Before starting the mower the first time, you
should charge the battery for 24 hours. Refer also
to the section titled 'MAINTENANCE, BAT-
TERY'.
Warning! Keep spectators away. Beware
of objects being flung out.
Warning! Do not put hands or feet under
the cover of the machine when it is run-
ning.
USING THE MOWER
BEFORE STARTING
Warning! Before starting any repair work,
remove the spark plug cable from the
spark plugs.
FILL THE CRANKCASE WITH OIL
The lawn mower is delivered without
any oil in the motor crankcase. The
crankcase must, therefore, be filled with
oil before the motor is started the first
time.
IMPORTANT
1. Remove the oil dipstick (fig. 6,7,8,9).
Certain models do not have a throttle. The motor
speed is set for optimal function and minimal ex-
haust emissions.
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.
ASSEMBLING
3. Fill until the oil reaches the “FULL/MAX”
mark on the dip stick. Do not fill with too much
oil.
HANDLEBAR
CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL
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).
Check before using the machine that the oil level is
between “FULL/MAX” and “ADD/MIN” on the
dipstick.
Then fit the upper part of the handlebar. A securing
eye for the starting handle is fitted on the right-
hand side (fig. 2).
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.
Storage position: 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).
Tecumseh: Clean the area round the oil plug, then
remove the plug (fig. 9). If the oil is not level with
the edge of the hole, carefully pour in clean oil. Re-
place the oil plug.
Note that you must check to make sure that the
wires do not fasten and break when the steering han-
dle is moved upwards or into the storage position.

FILL UP THE PETROL TANK
Keep hands and feet well away from the
rotating blade(s). Never put your hand
or foot under the blade casing or in the
grass evacuation unit while the motor is
running.
Fill with petrol before starting the mo-
tor. Never remove the filler cap or fill
with petrol while the motor is running
or still warm.
STARTING THE ENGINE (Honda)
Never fill the fuel tank completely full
but allow a little room for the petrol to
expand.
1. Place the lawn mower on flat, firm ground. Do
not start in high grass.
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.
NOTE that you should always remember that pet-
rol is a perishable commodity. Never buy more
petrol than what you can use up in 30 days.
3. Open the fuel cock (fig. 15).
4. Move the throttle control N to the chokeposi-
tion . Note! Don't use the choke position
when the engine is warm (fig. 10).
STARTING THE ENGINE
(Briggs & Stratton, Tecumseh)
5. Press in the Start/Stop-loop G against the steer-
ing. Note that the Start/Stop loop G must be
kept pressed-in to prevent the engine from stop-
ping (fig. 10).
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.
6. Grasp the starter handle and start the engine by
pulling briskly on the starter handle.
3. If the lawnmower is equipped with a throttle le-
ver, set throttle lever N in full throttle position
(fig. 10,11).
7. When the motor starts, move the throttle lever
backwards until the max. rotation speed is ob-
tained. Note! The engine should always be run
at the maximum rotation speed to avoid abnor-
mal engine vibrations.
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.
Keep hands and feet well away from the
rotating blade(s). Never put your hand
or foot under the blade casing or in the
grass evacuation unit while the motor is
running.
5. Press in the Start/Stop-loop G against the steer-
ing. Note that the Start/Stop loop G must be
kept pressed-in to prevent the engine from stop-
ping (fig. 10,11).
ENGAGE/DISENGAGE THE DRIVE
Engage the drive by pressing coupling clamp I
against the steering handle. Disengage the drive by
releasing coupling clamp I (fig. 10,11).
6. To facilitate starting of the engine - press down
the handlebar so that the front wheels lift slight-
ly from the ground. Do not start in tall grass.
By pressing down the handlebar so that the driving
wheels release their grip on the ground, turning, re-
versing, moving round trees etc. can be done with-
out having to disengage the drive system.
Multiclip 46 S: Grasp the starter handle and
start the engine by pulling briskly on the starter
handle.
Multiclip 46 SE: Start the engine by turning the
starter key clock-wise. Release the key as soon as
the engine starts. Always make 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
Note! the height setting works in the opposite di-
rection on the back axle respective front axle.
Make sure you set the same cutting height on all
wheels (fig. 16).
STOPPING THE ENGINE
The motor may be very warm immedi-
ately after it is shut off. Do not touch the
silencer, cylinder or cooling flanges as it
can cause burns and injury.
MAINTENANCE
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.
No service is to be made on the motor or
grass cutter unit without first switching
off the motor and removing the spark
plug cable from the spark plug.
Honda: Close the fuel cock.
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 termi-
nal (fig. 5).
2. If the lawn mower is left unattended to, remove
the lead from the spark plug.
Multiclip 46 SE: Also remove the starter key.
If the start/stop loop no longer works,
stop the engine by removing the lead
from the spark plug. Immediately take
the lawn mower to an authorised work-
shop for repairs.
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 when
replacing blades, changing oil, cleaning,
etc., you should slacken the locking
knobs and move the steering handle for-
wards. Raise the mower backwards to
allow the machine to rest on the steering
brace as shown in (fig. 17).
MOWING TIPS
Before mowing the lawn, take care to remove any
stones toys and other hard objects.
A machine with MULCHER system cuts the grass,
chops it finely and then blows it down in the lawn.
The grass clippings need not to be collected.
CLEANING
The following rules should be observed to give
best MULCHER effect:
After each time it is used the mower should be
cleaned. This is particularly important on the un-
derside of the mower casing. Wash out with the
garden hose. The mower will then last longer and
function better.
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.
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.
3. Always keep it clean under the mower casing.
4. Always use a well sharpened blade.
5. Avoid mowing when the grass is wet. The grass
then sticks to the underside of the casing, giving
poor mowing results.
Clean the silencer and the surrounding
area regularly to remove grass, dirt and
flammable waste products.
CUTTING HEIGHT
Note that you should clean the area under the tim-
ing gear casing once or twice a year. Set at the low-
est mowing height. Slacken the screws and remove
the timing gear casing (fig. 18). Clean with a brush
or compressed air.
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.

ENGLISH
The inside of the drive wheels should be cleaned
once a season. To clean a wheel, remove the hub-
cap, 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.
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 of-
ten if the lawn mower is used on dusty ground.
COOLING SYSTEM
Before use, the engine's cooling system should be
cleaned. Clean the cylinder's cooling fins and the
air intake, removing any grass cuttings, dirt and the
like.
Honda: Take off the cover then remove the filter
(Fig. 23). Check the filter carefully for holes or
other damage. A broken or damaged filter must be
replaced.
LUBRICATION
To remove dirt, tap the filter several times against
a hard surface, or blow compressed air through the
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.
Set at the lowest cutting height. Slacken the screws
and remove the transmission casing. Lubricate the
driveshaft by the slide bearings with oil or oil spray
at least once a season (fig. 20).
CHANGING OIL
Clean the air filter after every 25 hours of use, or
once every season; more often if the motor is used
on dusty terrain.
Replace the oil when the engine is warm
and the fuel tank is empty. Take care
while draining as the oil is hot, this is to
prevent burns.
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.
Change the oil the first time after 5 hours of oper-
ation, and subsequently after every 50 hours of op-
eration 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.
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 en-
gine oil. Massage the filter with a clean cloth to re-
move any excess oil. Also check the seal D,
replace it if damaged or deformed.
Fill with new oil: use oil of SAE 30 or SAE 10W-
30 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.
Refit the cover A.
AIR FILTER
SPARKING PLUG
A dirty and blocked air filter reduces the engine
output and increases engine wear.
Never remove the spark plug or the igni-
tion lead when checking to see if there is
any spark, always use an approved test
instrument.
Briggs & Stratton LS 45 / LS 38: Carefully re-
move 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 the filter element. Pour a little oil on the
filter element and squeeze it in. Refit the air clean-
er.
Clean the sparking plug regularly (every 100 hours
running). Use a wire brush for cleaning and adjust
the correct spark gap (fig. 25).
Change the sparking plug if the electrodes are ex-
cessively burnt or if the plug is damaged. The rec-
ommendations of the engine manufacturers are as
follows:
Wash the filter every three months or every 25
hours running, whichever comes first, or more fre-
quently if used in dusty conditions.

pressed in approx. 2 cm (posi-
tion 1) there should be some re-
sistance when moving the
mower backwards. With the
clutch loop fully pressed in (po-
sition 2) it should not be possible
to pull the mower backwards.
Loosen the locking nut U and
screw out the nipple T until this
position is achieved.
BATTERY (Multiclip 46 SE)
Electrolyte in the battery is toxic and
corrosive. It can cause serious corrosion
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 start-
ed with the starter key, it may be because the battery
is 'dead'. Connect the battery charger to the terminal
on the battery and put on charge for 24 hours (fig.
5). On completion of charging, connect the battery
terminal to the terminal on the motor.
4.Finally tighten the locking nut
U.
CHANGING BLADES
Use protective gloves to prevent cuts
when changing blades/knifeblades.
Note! The battery charger must not be connected
to the engine terminal. The engine cannot be start-
ed by using the charger as a source of power sup-
ply, and the charger will be damaged.
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.
WINTER STORAGE
Always check the blade after an impact. First dis-
connect the ignition cable. If the blade system has
been damaged the defective parts must be
changed. Always use genuine spare parts.
Store the lawn mower for the winter with the bat-
tery 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 maintenance-
charged. Before the start of the season the battery
should be charged once again for 24 hours.
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 and screw. Tighten the
screw fully to a torque of 40 Nm (fig. 27).
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:
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.
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
locking nut U and screw in the nipple T until the
mower can be moved backwards (fig. 26).
When replacing the blade, the blade holder and
blade screw, always use original spare parts. Non-
authentic spare parts could lead to the risk of per-
sonal injury or damage, even if they fit the ma-
chine.
SHARPENING OF THE BLADES
Sharpening of the blades must be done by wet
method grinding, using a whetstone or a grind-
stone.
For the sake of safety, the blades should not be
sharpened on an emery wheel. A very high temper-
ature could cause the blade to become brittle.

ENGLISH
Once the blade has been sharpened, it
must then be balanced so as to avoid vi-
bration damage (fig. 28).
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 screw out the sparking plug.
Pour a teaspoon of engine oil in the sparking plug
hole. Pull out the starting handle slowly so that the
oil is distributed in the cylinder. Screw in the
sparking plug.
Thoroughly clean the mower and store it indoors in
a dry place.
