Do not use the machine if the safety sys- tem is not working! Take the machine to a service workshop for inspection!

STARTING ENGINE

1.Open the fuel cock (fig. 12).

2.Make sure that the spark plug cable is properly in place.

3.Check to make sure that the power take-off is disengaged.

4.Do not keep your foot on the drive pedal.

5a. Comfort-President:

Starting cold engine – put the throttle control in the choke position. Starting warm engine – put the throttle control at full throttle (approx. 1 cm behind the choke position).

5b. Royal-Pro16-Pro20:

Put the throttle control at full throttle. Starting cold engine – pull the choke control out fully. Starting warm engine – do not touch the choke control.

6.Depress the brake pedal fully.

7.Turn the ignition key and start the engine.

8a. Comfort-President:

Once the engine has started, move the throttle con- trol gradually to full throttle if the choke has been used.

8b. Royal-Pro16-Pro20:

Once the engine has started, push the choke control in gradually if it has been used.

9.When starting from cold, do not make the ma- chine work under load immediately, but let the en- gine run for a few minutes first. This will allow the oil to warm up.

When in use, always operate the engine at full throttle.

STOPPING

Disengage the power take-off. Apply the parking brake.

If the machine is left unattended, re- move the spark plug cable from the spark plug. Also remove the starter 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.

CATALYTIC CONVERTER (Pro20 Cat)

The catalytic converter gets very hot during opera- tion. The heat remains for a long time after the en- gine has been stopped. Be aware of the fire risk.

Do not park in close proximity to in- flammable objects. Do not cover the machine until the catalytic converter has cooled down.

STEERING AID (Pro20)

Built-in function in order to facilitate steering. The operator only has to turn the steering wheel gently. A hydraulic torque amplifier creates the remaining force.

As opposed to normal servo steering (e.g. in a car), the steering aid has a limited capacity. This means that it has some characteristics that might be con- sidered negative:

-at a low engine rpm or in situations where extra steering force is needed, steering can be consid- ered to be “jumpy”.

-the machine should always be moving when the steering is used. Avoid turning the steering wheel when the machine is standing completely still and the accessory is in the lowered working position.

The steering is adapted in order to produce better results at a normal working speed. This produces major benefits.

Even when the engine is not running, the steering works. However, it is harder to turn in this case, if the machine is to be manoeuvred manually.

Allow the engine to idle 1 - 2 mins. Stop the engine by turning off the starter key.

Shut off the petrol cock. This is particularly impor- tant if the machine is to be transported on a trailer for example.

DRIVING TIPS

Make sure that there is the correct quantity of oil in the engine when driving on slopes (oil level on “FULL”).

Stiga PRO 16 and PRO 18 are elite-level table tennis blades that exemplify exceptional craftsmanship and cutting-edge technology, targeting both competitive players and serious enthusiasts. These blades are meticulously designed for players who seek balance, power, and control, integrating various innovative features that contribute to superior performance on the table.

The Stiga PRO 16 is particularly known for its lightweight design paired with a high degree of stiffness. This blade employs a unique combination of multiple layers of wood and advanced composite materials that enhance speed while maintaining excellent control. Its 16 mm thickness strikes a harmony between power and precision, allowing players to deliver fierce shots with ease. The PRO 18, on the other hand, is slightly thicker at 18 mm, providing a more substantial feel and increased power for aggressive playstyles. This thicker build enables players to generate greater spin, making it a favored choice for those who rely on heavy topspin and fast-paced gameplay.

Both blades feature the renowned Stiga “WAVE” technology, which optimizes the wood grain orientation to maximize speed and minimize vibrations. This technology not only enhances ball feel but also improves the racket's stability during intense rallies. Additionally, they come equipped with Stiga's proprietary “Hyper Bounce” technology, ensuring that players experience consistent rebound characteristics, enabling them to execute precise strokes without compromising power.

Another defining characteristic of the Stiga PRO 16 and PRO 18 is their ergonomic handle design. Both blades feature a well-shaped handle that fits comfortably in hand, allowing for extended playing periods without fatigue. Players can personalize their experience further by choosing between different handle types, such as the Straight, Flared, or Concave designs.

Moreover, both blades are compatible with a wide range of rubber surfaces, granting players the freedom to customize their setup according to their unique preferences. The combination of these features results in blades that not only cater to advanced techniques but also enhance overall playing experience.

In conclusion, the Stiga PRO 16 and PRO 18 represent the pinnacle of table tennis technology. Their high-quality materials, advanced technologies, and thoughtful design ensure players possess the necessary tools to take their game to new heights. These blades are not just products; they are a gateway to elevated performance on the table.
