5.1Service programme

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

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

Basic service must always be carried out by an au- thorised workshop.

First service and intermediate service should be carried out by an authorised workshop, but can also be carried out by the user. The content of this can be found in the service log and the actions are described under “4 STARTING AND OPERA- TION” as well as below.

Servicing carried out at an authorised workshop guarantees professional work using genuine spare parts.

At each basic service and intermediate service car- ried out at an authorised workshop, the service log is stamped. A service log presenting these services is a valuable document that improves the ma- chine’s second-hand value.

Change the oil more frequently if the engine has to operate in demanding conditions or if the ambient temperature is high.

5.2Preparation

All service and all maintenance must be carried out on a stationary machine with the engine switched off.

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

Stop the engine.

Prevent unintentional starting of the engine by disconnecting the spark plug cable(s) from the spark plug(s) and re- moving the ignition key.

5.3Tyre pressure

Adjust the air pressure in the tyres as follows: Front: 0.6 bar (9 psi).

Rear: 0.4 bar (6 psi).

Use oil without any additives.

Do not fill with too much oil. This can cause the engine to overheat.

Change oil when the engine is warm.

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