Why is my Stiga A 500 Lawn Mower vibrating abnormally and noisy?

Abnormal vibrations and noise in your Stiga Lawn Mower can stem from several causes. The cutting disc or blades might be damaged, requiring replacement. Residues like tapes or plastic fragments may be blocking the cutting device, so switch off the mower in safety conditions and unlock the cutting blade. Unexpected obstacles, such as fallen branches, could also be the culprit; remove them and restart the mower. If the grass is too tall, increase the cutting height. In rare cases, it may be an electric motor failure, in which case you should replace the motor contacting the nearest authorized service centre. If all of these are not the case, make a preliminary cut of the area with a normal lawn mower.
