Checking the installation

Check the loop signal by inspecting the indicator lamp on
the charging station.

the lamp does not indicate a solid green light.

First start-up and calibration

Before the robotic lawnmower is operated, a start-up
sequence in the robotic lawnmower's menu must be
carried out as well as an automatic calibration of the guide
signal. The calibration is also a good test to see that the
installation of the guide wire has been done in such a way
that the robotic lawnmower can easily follow the guide wire
from the charging station.
1. Open the control panel cover by pressing the STOP
button.
2. Set the main switch to position 1.
A start-up sequence begins when the robotic
lawnmower is started for the first time. The following is
requested:
• Language.
• Country
• Time format
• Current time
• Date format
• Date
• Four digit PIN code. All combinations except 0000
are permitted.

Note: Use the
manual to make a note of the PIN code.
3. Place the robotic lawnmower in the charging station as
requested in the display. Press the START button and
close the cover. The robotic lawnmower will now start
the guide calibration, by leaving the charging station
and following the guide wire to the point where the
guide wire is connected to the boundary wire to begin
mowing there. Check that the robotic lawnmower can
follow the guide wire all the way. If it cannot, this may
be due to an incorrectly installed guide wire. In this
case, check that the installation is performed as

Then carry out a new calibration. See

Test docking with the charging station

Before using the robotic lawnmower, check that the robotic
lawnmower can follow the guide wire all the way to the
charging station and easily docks with the charging station.
Perform the test below.
1. Open the panel hatch by pressing the STOP button.
2. Place the robotic lawnmower close to the point where

Control panel

All forms of commands and settings for the McCULLOCH
robotic lawnmower are made via the control panel. All
functions are accessed via a number of menus.
The control panel consists of a display and a keypad. All
information is shown on the display and all input is done
using the buttons.
The keypad consists of four groups of buttons: multi-
choice buttons and numbers (see below), start and
operation button (see
Calibrate guide, Multi-choice buttons
The three multi-choice buttons offer various functions,
among others depending on where in the menu structure
you are. The button function is shown at the very bottom of
the display.
the guide wire is connected to the boundary wire.
Place the robotic lawnmower about 2 m from the guide
wire, facing the guide wire.

wire all the way to the charging station and that it
docks with the charging station. The test is approved
only if the robotic lawnmower is able to follow the
guide wire the entire distance to the charging station
and docks at the first attempt. If the robotic lawnmower
is unable to dock on the first attempt, it will
automatically try again. The installation is not approved
if the robotic lawnmower needs two or more attempts
to dock with the charging station. In this case, check
that the charging station, the boundary wire and the
guide wire are installed in accordance with the
instructions.
