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.

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.

WINTER STORAGE

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.

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:

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).

3. When the clutch loop is 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.

4.Finally tighten the locking nut U.

CHANGING BLADES

Use protective gloves to prevent cuts when changing blades/knifeblades.

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.

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.

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).

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, 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.

46SE, 46S specifications

The Stiga 46SE and 46S are exceptional lawn mowers designed to provide efficient and reliable performance for various lawn care needs. Known for their robust design and advanced technology, these models cater to homeowners and gardening enthusiasts seeking quality and ease of use.

One of the standout features of both the 46SE and 46S is their powerful 140cc engine, which delivers robust cutting performance while maintaining fuel efficiency. This reliable engine is engineered for easier starting and reduced emissions, aligning with modern eco-friendly initiatives. Additionally, the mowers come with a 46cm cutting width, making them ideal for medium to large lawns, as they can effectively cover substantial ground in a shorter time.

The cutting system on both models is designed for versatility. They feature a 5-position cutting height adjustment, allowing users to tailor the grass length to their preference—ranging from 22mm for a neat finish to 80mm for a more robust cut. This flexibility accommodates different types of grass and seasonal conditions, making the mowers highly adaptable.
