9 MAINTENANCE
9 .1 ASSISTANCE PROGRAMME
To keep the machine in good working order in
terms of reliability, safety and environmental pro-
tection, always adhere to the STIGA SpA servicing
programme.
The points of intervention for this programme are
illustrated in the attached STIGA SpA maintenan-
ce manual.
The Basic Service must always be carried out by
an authorized service workshop.
The First Service and Intermediate Service should
be carried out by an authorized service workshop,
but can also be carried out by the user.
The procedures are indicated in the handbook and
are described in the chapter "7 START-UP AND
OPERATION" as well as here below.
The checks carried out by an authorized service
workshop guarantee professional workmanship
and the use of genuine spare parts.
The handbook is stamped every time a Basic Ser-
vice is performed and each time an Intermediate
Service is carried out by an authorized service
workshop. A handbook with these stamps increa-
ses the second-hand value of the machine.
9 .2 PREPARATION

must be carried out on a stationary ma-
chine with the engine switched off.
Always apply the parking brake to stop
the machine from moving .
Stop the engine .

gine by disconnecting the spark plug
cables and removing the ignition key .

9 .5 .1 Inspection / top-up (18; 19; 19A)
Always check the fluid level before use.
To check the level, make sure the ma-
chine is on even ground .
Wipe around the dipstick. Unscrew it and
pull it out. Wipe the dipstick clean.
(18; 19) Push the dipstick down comple-
tely and screw in place.
Now unscrew and pull the dipstick up
again. Read off the oil level.
(19A) Insert the dipstick completely without
screwing it in place.
Now pull the dipstick up again. Read off the
oil level.
Top up if the level is lower than the "FULL"
mark (18; 19; 19A).
The oil level must never exceed the
"FULL" mark . This results in the engine
overheating . If the oil level exceeds the
"FULL" mark, the oil must be drained
until the correct level is achieved .
Change the oil more frequently if the engine has
to work in difficult conditions or when the ambient
temperature is high.
