Water Separator; Safety Checks; Power Assisted Steering - Stiga TITAN 26 B Instructions For Use Manual

5.5 AIR FILTER INDICATOR
Check to make sure that the air filter indicator (25,
26:I) has not been tripped.
Check, see "3.5.7".
Replace the air filter, see "6.14".

5.6 WATER SEPARATOR

Check that the water separator's float (17:E) is at
the bottom.
Check that the water separator's tap is open. See
fig. 15.

5.7 SAFETY CHECKS

Check that the results of the safety checks below
are met when testing the machine.
The safety checks must always be
carried out before use.
If any of the results below are not met,
the machine must not be used! Take the
machine to a service workshop for
repair.

ENGLISH
5.8 START
1. Check that PTO is disengaged.
2. Do not keep your foot on the accelerator pedal.
3. Set the throttle control to ¼ throttle.
4. Depress the brake pedal fully. The indicator
lamp (1:M) should illuminate.
5. For cold starts at lower temperatures, the engine
should be preheated before starting. See
"3.4.10". Then return the ignition key and start
the engine.
6. The machine must never be loaded or driven di-
rectly after a cold start when the hydraulic oil is
cold.
Heat the hydraulic oil by running the engine at
¼ throttle with the machine stationary. Run it
for a few minutes as shown in the diagram be-
low.
Example: At -10°C run at ¼ throttle for 18 min-
utes.
When the machine is in operation, full throttle
should always be used.
However, the following applies to 26H and 32H:
To prevent unnecessary increases in pressure in
the hydraulic system, set the throttle control to
1/4 throttle before the hydraulic PTO is en-
gaged.

5.9 POWER ASSISTED STEERING

The power steering transfers the force from the
machine's hydraulic system to the steering wheel
when turned. This makes the machine very easy to
steer when the engine is running at full throttle.
Power steering forces reduce as the engine speed
reduces.

Be careful when driving on slopes. No
sudden starting or stopping when
moving up or down a slope. Never drive
across a slope. Move from the top down,
or from the bottom to the top.
The machine must not be driven in any
direction on slopes with a gradient
greater than 10º.
