GENERAL
Before starting the mower for the first
time and after winter storage, you should
charge the battery for 1 - 2 days other-
wise the battery can be damaged.
In order for the battery to maintain its
capacity and to give optimum perform-
ance, it is important that the charging
and storage instructions are carefully fol-
lowed.
• The battery used in this machine is a lead-acid
type battery. This type of battery must always
be stored fully charged.
• Always charge the battery indoors, in a garage,
etc. where the battery is dry and protected from
the weather.
• Only charge the battery when the temperature is
at least 0°C and not over +40°C. Charging in
lower or higher temperatures can damage the
battery.
• Always keep the mower battery away from wa-
ter, sources of heat (ovens, radiators, open fires,
etc.) and hazardous chemicals.
• Always use the accompanying genuine Stiga
charger. Never use the charger for any other
product.
• Never use the charger if it is damaged in any way.
A damaged lead or charger should immediately
be replaced at an authorised service workshop
• Take care of the leads. Never carry the charger
by the lead. When charging is complete pull out
the plug not the lead. If an extension cable is
used, use a robust sort suitable for outdoor use,
even if the battery is never charged outdoors.
• The charger always feels warm to touch, during
the first hours of charging.
