ENGLISH

Be careful when driving on slopes. No sudden starting or stopping when mov- ing up or down a slope. Never drive across a slope. Move from the top down, and from the bottom to the top.

The machine, equipped with original accessories, may not be driven on slopes greater than 10º in any direction.

Reduce the speed on slopes and when making sharp turns to prevent the ma- chine from tipping over or you losing control of the machine.

Do not turn the steering wheel to full lock when driving in top gear and at full throttle. The machine can easily topple over.

Keep hands and fingers well away from articulated steering joint and seat bracket. Risk of crushing injuries. Nev- er operate the machine without the en- gine casing.

SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE

SERVICE PROGRAM

In order to keep the machine in good condition, as regards reliability and operational safety as well as from an environmental perspective, STIGA’s serv- ice program should be followed.

The contents of this program can be found in the attached service log.

We recommend that an authorised workshop car- ries out every service. This guarantees that the work is performed by trained personnel and with genuine spare parts.

At every service, the service log should be stamped. A “fully stamped” service log is a valua- ble document that improves the machine’s second- hand value.

PREPARATIONS

Unless otherwise stated, all service and mainte- nance must be carried out on a stationary machine when the engine is not running.

Prevent the machine from rolling by al- ways applying the parking brake.

Prevent unintentional starting of the engine by always stopping the engine, disconnecting the spark plug cable from the spark plug and earthing it. Disconnect the negative cable from the battery.

CLEANING

To reduce the risk of fire, keep the en- gine, silencer/catalytic converter, bat- tery and fuel tank free from grass, leaves and oil.

To reduce the risk of fire, regularly check the machine for oil and/or fuel leakage.

When washing the machine with water under high pressure, do not point the jet directly at the trans- mission.

Do not point jets of water directly at the engine. Use a brush or compressed air in order to clean it.

ENGINE OIL

(President - Comfort - Pro16 - Pro20)

Change the oil for the first time after 5 hours run- ning, and then after every 50 hours running or once a season. Change oil when the engine is warm.

Always use a good grade of oil (service grade SF, SG or SH).

Change the oil more often (after 25 hours of oper- ation or at least once a season) if the engine has to operate under demanding conditions or if the am- bient temperature is high.

The engine oil may be very hot if it is drained off directly after the engine is shut off. So allow the engine to cool a few minutes before draining the oil.

1. Oil drain pipe (metal):

Unscrew the oil drain plug at the end of the pipe.

Collect the oil in a collection vessel. Then take the oil to a recycling station. Do not allow oil to get on the V-belts.

2.Screw in the oil drain plug. Make sure that the fibre gasket and the O-ring inside the plug are not damaged and that they are in the correct place.

3.Remove the dipstick and fill up with new oil.

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.
