Tighten the locking knobs to fix the upper part of the handle (fig. 2).

Finally secure the cables to the handle tube by us- ing the cable ties (fig. 3).

EYELET FOR STARTER HANDLE

Attach the starter handle to the eyelet on the steer- ing handle (fig. 4).

BATTERY (*)

USING THE MOWER

GENERAL

Your new lawn mower combines two different functions in the same machine:

1. "MULTICLIP"

When delivered, the machine is equipped with a plug (P) mounted in the grass evacuation opening (fig. 29). The machine can be used for "Multiclip", i.e. when cutting the grass is finely chopped by the blade. The grass is then spread into the lawn where it decomposes. In this way, nutrients are put back into the lawn.

To remove the plug, press in the catch (S). When remounting the plug, make sure that both the pins are pressed down into the holes, so that the plug snaps into place.

45, 45S, 45SE specifications

The Stiga 45SE, 45S, and 45 lawn mowers have gained popularity among gardening enthusiasts and professionals alike due to their robust features, advanced technologies, and user-friendly characteristics. Designed for efficient and effective lawn care, these cutting-edge machines are tailored to meet diverse mowing needs while ensuring ease of use and comfort.

One of the standout features of the Stiga 45 series is the powerful engine. Equipped with reliable and efficient motors, these mowers offer sufficient power to tackle various grass types and mowing conditions. The 45SE model stands out with its electric start, providing convenience and eliminating the hassle of pulling cords. The engines are designed to maintain optimal performance while minimizing fuel consumption and emissions, promoting eco-friendly operation.

The cutting deck is another area where Stiga excels.

The height adjustment feature enables users to choose from multiple cutting heights, ensuring a pristine cut tailored to individual preferences and lawn requirements.

An innovative technology featured in these mowers is the Multiclip system, which finely shreds grass clippings, allowing them to decompose and naturally fertilize the lawn. This not only provides a clean finish but also reduces the need for additional fertilizers, promoting a healthier lawn ecosystem.

User comfort is a priority in the design of these mowers. The ergonomic handles and lightweight construction make maneuverability easy, even in tight spaces. Additionally, the adjustable handlebars allow operators of varying heights to find their optimal mowing position, reducing fatigue during extended use.
