Stiga 8211-0543-01 manual Using the Machine, Maintenance

ENENGLISH

5.Undo the screws (7:H and 12:K) so that the deck rests against the plank and the spacer. Check that the deck does not lean sideways in relation to the machine.

6.Tighten the screws (7:H and 12:K) to 22 Nm.

7.Place the deck in transport position and remove the plank.

•Mulching: composting and spreading.

•Rear ejection: ejects the grass in a line behind the deck.

The deck is set for mulching on delivery. In order to eject the grass in a line behind the deck, the plug in fig. 6 must be removed.

Set the deck in service position (see 5.3) in order to remove/install the plug.

4 USING THE MACHINE

Check that the grass that is to be cut is completely free of foreign objects such as stones etc.

4.1 Cutting height

The best cutting results are achieved when the when the top third of the grass is cut off. I.e. 2/3 of the length of the grass remains. See fig. 18.

If the grass is long and has to be cut significantly, cut twice using different cutting heights.

Do not use the lowest cutting heights if the lawn surface is uneven. This would entail a risk of the blades being damaged against the surface and the lawn’s top layer of soil being removed.

4.2 Incline

The cutting deck’s rear section can be lifted so that the deck has a greater forward incline than that provided by the basic setting. This incline affects the cutting results as follows.

4.2.1 No incline

When the deck is in the basic setting, the best mulching effect and good dispersion of the cut grass are achieved. The basic setting is recom- mended for normal grass.

4.2.2 Incline

When the cutting deck is inclined forwards, the mulching effect is reduced while the cut grass is dispersed better.

Inclining forwards is recommended for thicker grass.

4.3 Mowing advice

In order to achieve optimum mowing results, fol- low the advice below:

•Cut frequently.

•Run the engine at full throttle.

•The grass should be dry.

•Use sharp blades.

•Keep the underside of the cutting deck clean.
