During this instruction, the user should be
made aware
that the utmost care and concentration
are required for working with the
machine.
that a ride-on mower which is sliding
down a slope cannot be brought under
control by applying the brake.
The main causes for the loss of control
over the ride-on mower include:
inadequate adhesion of the wheels,
driving too fast,
inappropriate braking,
incorrect use (sport events, etc.),
inadequate knowledge of the effects
associated with ground conditions,
especially on slopes (see section "For
your safety", "Working on slopes"),
incorrect attachment of loads and poor
load distribution.
Residual risks persist even if you operate
the machine according to the instructions.
4.3 Transporting the ride-on mower
On account of its own weight, the ride-on
mower can cause severe crush injuries.
Particular care must be taken when
loading or unloading the ride-on mower
onto/from a vehicle or trailer for transport
purposes.
This ride-on mower must not be towed. For
transporting on public roads, a suitable
vehicle or a suitable trailer must be used.
During transport, the ride-on mower must
be secured to a load floor as described in
this instruction manual. Furthermore, the
parking brake must be engaged. (Ö 15.)
Prior to transporting or storage, disengage
the drive to the mowing blades or

Allow the machine, in particular the engine
and muffler, to cool down completely after
loading and before further transport. The
load floor and the area around the muffler
and engine must be kept free of
combustible materials such as straw,
leaves or dry grass residues.
4.4 Refilling the tank – handling petrol
Petrol must only be stored in appropriate,
tested containers (canisters). Always
screw on the fuel tank and canister caps
properly and tightly. Defective caps must
be replaced for safety reasons.
Keep petrol away from sparks,
naked flames, pilot lights, heat
sources and other ignition
sources. Do not smoke!
Refill the tank out-of-doors and do not
smoke during refilling.
Before refilling the tank, stop the engine
and allow it to cool.
Refilling with petrol must be performed
before the engine is started. When the
engine is running or is hot, the tank cap
must not be removed and the tank must
not be refilled with petrol.
Open the fuel tank cap slowly and
carefully. Wait for pressure compensation
and only then remove the tank cap
completely.
Use a suitable funnel or filling pipe for
refilling the tank, so that no fuel can spill
onto the engine and housing or the lawn.
Do not overfill the fuel tank!
To give the fuel room to expand,
never fill the fuel tank past the
lower edge of the filler neck.
Observe the additional
instructions in the engine
instruction manual.
If petrol is spilled, the engine
must only be started after the petrol-
contaminated area has been cleaned. All
attempts at starting must be avoided until
the petrol fumes have dispersed (wipe
dry).
Any spilt fuel must be wiped up
immediately.
Clothing must be changed if it comes into
contact with petrol.
Following each refilling of the tank, the fuel
tank cap must be properly screwed on and
tightened. The machine must not be
operated without the original tank cap.
For safety reasons, the fuel line, fuel tank,
tank cap and connections must be
checked regularly for damage, ageing
(brittleness), firm seating and leaks.
Replace if necessary (consult a specialist
dealer; STIHL recommends STIHL
specialist dealers).
If it is necessary to drain the tank, this must
be done out of doors.
Never use beverage bottles or similar for
disposal or storage of fuels and lubricants.
Persons, particularly children, could be
tempted to drink out of them.
Never store the machine with petrol in the
tank inside a building. The resulting petrol
fumes could come into contact with naked
flames or sparks and could be ignited.
Do not leave the machine and the fuel tank
close to heating systems, radiant heaters,
welding equipment and other sources of
heat. Explosive hazard!
4.5 Clothing and equipment
Always wear sturdy footwear
with high-grip soles when
working. Never work barefoot
or, for example, in sandals.
Always wear long trousers and tight-fitting
clothing when operating the machine.
Never wear loose clothes which may
become caught on moving parts (control
levers) – do not wear jewellery, ties or
scarves.
Also always wear sturdy gloves
and tie up and secure long hair
(headscarf, cap, etc.) when
performing maintenance and
cleaning work or when transporting the
machine.

damage, do not start the engine – fire
hazard!
Have the machine repaired by a specialist
dealer prior to operation.
Mounting and dismounting the machine
must be performed from the left-hand side
of the machine when the mowing deck is
installed. The deflector flap, which must
never be stood on, is located on the right-
hand side.
Observe the local regulations regarding
permitted operating times for gardening
power tools with combustion engines or
electric motors.
Completely inspect the area on which the
machine is to be used and remove any
stones, sticks, wires, toys and other
foreign objects that could be thrown up by
the machine. Obstacles (e.g. tree stumps,
roots) can be easily overlooked in long
grass.
For this reason, mark all foreign objects
(obstacles) that are hidden in the lawn and
cannot be removed before commencing
work with the machine.
All faulty, worn or damaged parts must be
replaced before using the machine.
Replace any illegible or damaged danger
signs and warnings on the machine. Your
STIHL specialist has a supply of
replacement stickers and all the other
spare parts.
Never use the machine with damaged
safety devices or with safety devices
removed.
Spring-loaded mechanisms may release
stored energy. Spring-loaded mechanisms
must be undamaged and working.
The screwed-on discharge port (discharge
chute on mowing deck) must always be
securely fastened to the mowing deck. It
must not be damaged and, if necessary, it
must be replaced by a technician.
The braking function must be checked
before each use. (Ö 12.5)
Before each use, check whether:
the cutting tool and the entire cutting
unit (mowing blade, blade clutch, blade
brake, retaining pin, mowing deck
housing) are in good condition.
Particularly check for secure fastening,
damage and wear.
the tank cap is securely attached.
the tank and fuel-carrying parts as well
as the tank cap are in good condition.
the safety devices are in good condition
and function correctly.
the tyres (inflation pressure, damage,
wear) and frame are in good condition.
Check that all screw connections are
securely fastened. In particular, all
maintenance operations listed in the
maintenance schedule under the
heading "Before each use" must be
carried out. (Ö 14.1)
If necessary, consult a specialist dealer.
STIHL recommends STIHL specialist
dealers.
4.7 During operation
Never work in the vicinity of
other people, particularly
children, or animals. Ensure
that the grass is never
discharged in the direction of other people.
Do not operate the machine in the rain or
during thunder storms, particularly when
there is a risk of lightning strike.
Exhaust gases:
The machine generates
poisonous exhaust gases when
the engine is running. The
gases contain poisonous
carbon monoxide, a colourless and
odourless gas, as well as other pollutants.
The engine must never be operated in
closed or poorly ventilated spaces.
The engine exhaust is released into the air
in a forward direction, between the two
front wheels. When working with the
machine, ensure that this area is always
kept clean and is never covered in order to
prevent the accumulation of exhaust
gasses.
Starting:
The machine must only be started from the
driver's seat.
Start the machine on level ground, not on
a slope.
The engine may only be started in a well
ventilated working area, sufficient
ventilation must be ensured, particularly in
garages.
Before starting the engine, disengage the
cutting tool, attachments and drive and
press down the brake pedal fully.
Danger to life through poisoning!
Stop working immediately in case of
nausea, headaches, impaired
vision (e.g. decreasing field of
view), hearing problems, dizziness
or decreasing power of
concentration. These symptoms
may be caused by excessively high
exhaust gas concentrations.
ENNO
11
SVFIDAPL
0478 192 9812 B - EN
When starting, it must be ensured that
there is sufficient clearance between the
feet and the cutting tool.
Never start the engine by short-circuiting
the starter terminal. If the normal starter
circuit is bypassed, the ride-on mower may
suddenly be set in motion.
Never start the engine if the smell of petrol
can be detected – Explosive hazard!
Working:
Only work during the day or with good
artificial light.
When driving off the lawn or when not
mowing, the mowing blades must be
disengaged and the mowing deck must be
set to the highest cutting position.
Objects hidden in the turf (lawn sprinkler
systems, posts, water valves, foundations,
electrical wires, etc.) must be avoided.
Never run over any such foreign objects.
The mowing deck should be removed
when working with additional attachments
– observe instruction manual for the
attachments.
Always hold the steering wheel firmly with
both hands when driving.
Particular care must be taken when driving
on lawns and other uneven surfaces, as
the steering wheel can be made to turn
due to holes, mounds, impacts, etc.
Risk of injury to hands and fingers!
If, during operation, a defect in the tank,
tank cap or in the fuel-carrying
components (fuel lines) is detected, the
engine must be stopped immediately. A
specialist dealer must then be contacted.
STIHL recommends STIHL specialist
dealers.
Beware of depressions (holes) in the
terrain and other invisible points of danger.
Obstacles can be easily overlooked in long
grass.
Always drive at a reasonable speed.
Use the machine with great care when
working near slopes, rubbish piles,
terraces, ditches and embankments. In
particular, ensure that you maintain
sufficient distance to such danger areas.
Particular care must be taken at points of
poor visibility, bushes, trees and other
obstacles, behind which persons,
especially children, or animals may be
hidden.
Bring the ride-on mower to a standstill
immediately and stop the mowing blade if
someone moves into the area to be mown.
Always monitor the area in front of the
vehicle. Beware of obstacles, in order to
be able to evade them in time.
Before reversing, always check the area
behind the ride-on mower and, if present,
disengage the attachment. Never mow in
reverse, if it is not absolutely necessary.
When mowing in reverse, take particular
care and before beginning to mow,
thoroughly check the entire area behind
the ride-on mower.
When working together in a group, always
inform the others in advance of what you
intend to do. Maintain a safety distance!
The vehicle speed must be reduced before
each change of direction, so that the user
retains control of the machine at all times
and also that the ride-on mower cannot tip
over.
When operating near to roads and when
crossing roads, other road users must be
taken into account.
Take particular care when mowing near
roads, cycle paths and footpaths. Objects
which are thrown up by the mower can
cause severe injury and damage.
When operating the ride-on mower with
attachments, always follow the
instructions and safety regulations
supplied with the attachments.
Switch off the drive, stop the engine and
wait until the mowing blades have come to
a complete standstill, engage the parking
brake and remove the ignition key:
before removing blockages.
before checking, cleaning or working on
the ride-on mower,
if a mowing blade has hit an obstacle.
Inspect the machine and the cutting tool
for damage and have any necessary
repairs performed before re-starting.
if the machine begins to vibrate
excessively. It must be checked
immediately.
when abandoning or when transporting
the machine.
Stop the engine and wait until the mowing
blades have come to a complete standstill:
Before filling with fuel.
Warning – risk of injury!
Observe the working
area of the mowing
blades. Never put hands
or feet on or underneath
rotating parts. Never touch the
rotating mowing blades. Always
keep away from the discharge
opening. An adequate safety
distance must always be
maintained.
0478 192 9812 B - EN
12
Working on slopes:
Slopes are one of the major causes of
accidents in which control over the ride-on
mower is lost causing it to tip over, which
can result in severe or even fatal injuries.
There is no "safe" slope! Driving on grassy
slopes requires special concentration.
For safety reasons, the machine must not
be used on slopes with an inclination of
more than 10° (17.6 %). Risk of injury!
A slope inclination of 10° corresponds to a
vertical height increase of 17.6 cm for a
100 cm horizontal distance.
In order to ensure an adequate oil supply
for the engine, the information in the
accompanying engine instruction manual
must be additionally observed when using
the machine on slopes.
If you cannot drive up the slope in reverse
or if you have doubts regarding safety, you
should not drive on the slope.
Starting off or stopping on a gradient must
be avoided.
Do not use the machine in places (slopes,
ditches, etc.) where the ride-on mower can
tip over or slide. The danger of tipping over
or sliding increases if the ground is soft or
damp.
Slopes must be driven on in a longitudinal
direction. Driving transversely increases
the danger of tipping over.
Do not change speed or direction abruptly
when driving on slopes. Work in this type
of situation requires calm, cautious and
even operation of the ride-on mower.
Changes of direction on slopes must be
avoided. Only turn on slopes if this is
unavoidable. If possible, drive slowly and
in a large curve in the down-slope
direction.
Do not mow wet grass, particularly on
slopes, as wheel grip is reduced on wet
grass. The ride-on mower could slide and
become uncontrollable for the user.
The gearbox must never be disengaged
via the gearbox freewheel when driving on
slopes.
Special care must be taken when
operating attachments on slopes (altered
weight distribution of the machine).
Never try to stabilise the ride-on mower by
pressing on the ground with your foot.
If the wheels should start to slip or if the
vehicle becomes stuck in the up-slope
direction when driving on an incline, the
mowing blades or the attachment must be
disengaged. Then leave the slope by
driving slowly downhill in a straight line.
Pulling loads:
Particular care must be taken when pulling
loads, in order to prevent the risk of severe
or even fatal injuries due to the ride-on
mower tipping over.
Only use accessories approved by STIHL
for transporting objects. Transportation on
the ride-on mower is not permitted.
For pulling loads, use only the trailer hitch.
Loads must never be attached to the axle
housing or to another point above the
trailer hitch.
Please refer to the section "Pulling loads"
for information on pulled and coupling
loads. (Ö 12.8)
Exceeding the specified pulled load is
dangerous and may result in damage to
the machine (engine, gearbox, etc.).
When transporting on slopes, the loads
must be adapted so that safe handling of
the ride-on mower (e.g. braking, change of
direction, starting off) is ensured at all
times.
Check whether loads are properly and
securely fastened. Use lashing straps for
securing loads.
Ensure balanced load distribution.
Use suitable additional weights
(accessories) if this is described in the
instruction manual for the attachment.
Do not execute tight curves. Particular
care must be taken when reversing.
Do not change speed or direction abruptly.
Stopping and parking:
The ride-on mower must only be parked on
a level surface.
Make sure that the ride-on mower has
come to a complete standstill before you
dismount.
Beware of the cutting tool
running on for several seconds
before coming to a standstill.
Before leaving the driver’s seat,
disengage the mowing blades
or the drive to the attachments, lower the
mowing deck and all attachments, set all
control levers to the neutral position,
engage the parking brake, stop the engine
and remove the ignition key.
Keep the ignition key in a place where only
authorised persons can access it.

4.8 Maintenance and repairs
Before beginning cleaning,
adjustment, repair and
maintenance operations, park
the machine on firm, level
ground, engage the parking brake, stop
the engine, allow it to cool down and
remove the ignition key.
Be aware that moving one cutting tool
results in the turning of the other cutting
tools.
Allow the machine to cool down before
working on or around the engine, exhaust
manifold or muffler; this also applies in
particular to all maintenance operations on
the mowing deck. Temperatures of 80 °C
and above can be reached. Danger of
burns:
Cleaning:
Following operation, the entire ride-on
mower and the attachments must be
cleaned. In particular, all grass residues
must be removed because the moisture
these contain leads to damage in the long
term.
STIHL does not recommend the use of
high-pressure cleaners. (Ö 14.2)
Remove the mowing deck for cleaning
operations. Never clean the mowing deck
using water under high pressure (e.g.
garden hose) or by engaging the mowing
deck in puddles of water.
Never drive close to an edge or a ditch for
the purpose of cleaning (e.g. the frame of)
the ride-on mower.
In order to prevent fire hazards, keep the
engine, cooling ribs, battery compartment,
area around the fuel tank and exhaust free
from grass, leaves or escaping oil (or
grease).
Maintenance operations:
Only maintenance operations described in
this instruction manual may be carried out.
Have all other work performed by a
specialist dealer.
If you do not have the necessary expertise
or auxiliary equipment, please always
contact a specialist dealer.
STIHL recommends that you have
maintenance operations and repairs
performed exclusively by a STIHL
specialist dealer.
STIHL specialist dealers regularly attend
training courses and are provided with
technical information.
Only use tools, accessories or
attachments approved for this machine by
STIHL or technically identical parts.
Otherwise, there may be a risk of
accidents resulting in personal injury or
damage to the machine. If you have any
questions, please consult a specialist
dealer.
The characteristics of original STIHL tools,
accessories and spare parts are optimally
adapted to the machine and the user's
requirements. Genuine STIHL spare parts
can be recognised by the STIHL spare
parts number, by the STIHL lettering and,
if present, by the STIHL spare parts
symbol. On smaller parts, only the symbol
may be present.
The ride-on mower and all attachments
should be inspected once annually by a
specialist dealer. (Ö 14.1)
Always keep warning and information
stickers clean and readable. Damaged or
missing stickers must be replaced by new,
original plates from your STIHL specialist
dealer. If a component is replaced with a
new component, ensure that the new
component is provided with the same
stickers.
For safety reasons, fuel-carrying
components (fuel line, fuel cock, fuel tank,
tank cap, connections, etc.) must be
checked regularly for damage and leaks
and replaced by a technician if necessary
(STIHL recommends STIHL specialist
dealers).
Before starting work on or near electrical
components, the negative (–) cable must
be disconnected from the battery.
The machine is equipped with numerous
safety devices. These devices must not be
removed or modified (bypassed, etc.) and
must be checked at regular intervals.
Operations on the safety devices must
only be carried out by a technician. STIHL
recommends STIHL specialist dealers for
this purpose.
Ensure that all nuts, pins and screws,
especially the blade fastening screws, are
securely tightened, so that the machine is
in a safe operating condition.
For safety reasons, worn or damaged
parts must be replaced immediately.
Particular care is required when working
under the machine, due to the weight of
the ride-on mower. Consult your specialist
dealer for this purpose; STIHL
recommends STIHL specialist dealers.
They will have a workshop pit or a
hydraulic working platform.
Check the secure fastening of the front
and rear wheels.

Always maintain the ride-on mower and
the attachments in perfect operating
condition. All safety devices must be
present and be in perfect operating
condition.
Ensure that the tyres have the correct tyre
pressures. The tyre pressures specified in
the instruction manual must not be
exceeded.
Only perform work on the mowing blades
when wearing thick work gloves and
exercising extreme care.
Check the function of the brakes at
regular, short intervals and, if necessary,
have the required adjustments or
maintenance operations performed by a
technician. STIHL recommends STIHL
specialist dealers.
Electrical system and battery:
In order to prevent sparks due to short
circuiting, the negative (–) cable must
always be disconnected from the battery
first and reconnected last.
Never smoke when working on
the battery. Sparks, naked
flames and other heat sources
must be kept away from the
battery.
Particular care is necessary when using
battery jump leads. Observe the relevant
instructions in order to prevent damage to
the ride-on mower (in particular, actuate
the starter for a maximum of 10 seconds).
(Ö 12.2)
When charging the battery using another
charging system, observe the instructions
in section "Charging the battery".
(Ö 14.19)
Never open the battery and do not drop it.
Always charge the battery in an enclosed,
well-ventilated room which is dry and
weather-protected.
Do not short circuit the battery
connections.
Deformed or faulty (leaking) batteries must
not be used and must be replaced and
disposed of in an environmentally-friendly
manner. Observe country-specific
legislation.
Fluid may escape from faulty batteries.
Avoid contact! In the case of inadvertent
contact, rinse with water. Seek medical
attention if the fluid contacts the eyes.
Escaping battery fluid can cause skin
irritation and burns.
Visually inspect the battery connection
cables for damage at regular intervals.
Have damaged cables replaced by a
technician.
Never bypass the fuses. Never use a fuse
with a value that differs from the specified
rating (ampere).
4.9 Storage for prolonged periods
without operation
Allow the engine to cool before storing the
machine in an enclosed space.
Store the ride-on mower with empty fuel
tank and the fuel reserve in a lockable and
well-ventilated room.
Never store the machine with petrol in the
fuel tank inside a building in which the
petrol fumes could come into contact with
naked flames or sparks.
If the tank has to be emptied
(e.g. immobilisation before the winter
break), the fuel tank must be emptied out
of doors only (empty the tank by running
the engine out of doors, for example).
Store the machine in good operational
condition.
The ignition key must always be removed
and kept in a safe place, to prevent
unauthorised or improper use by children
or other persons.
Thoroughly clean the ride-on mower
before storage (e.g. winter break). Dry
grass residues and leaves near to the
muffler may ignite. Danger of
combustion!
Perform all the necessary maintenance
operations (lubrication, etc.) before storing
the machine. (Ö 14.1)
The battery cables must be disconnected if
the ride-on mower is immobilised for
longer periods. STIHL recommends
removing the battery and storing it in a dry
and locked place. (Ö 14.18)
Ensure that batteries are protected from
unauthorised use (e.g. by children).
Allow the machine to cool down
completely before covering it.
4.10 Disposal
Waste products such as used engine oil or
fuel, used lubricants, filters, batteries and
