Installation - Husqvarna AUTOMOWER 440 Operator's Manual

When the weather timer is activated, it is very important
to regularly check that the blade disc is clean and that
the blades are in good condition. Any grass twisted
around the blade disc shaft or blunt blades can affect
how the weather timer functions.
3.16.1 To activate the weather timer
Check the box by pressing OK to activate the weather
timer.
3.16.2 Cutting time
If the mowing results are not optimal when using the
Weather timer , Cutting time settings may need
adjusting.
The longer cutting time that is chosen, the longer the
robotic lawnmower will be allowed to work.
Cutting time
3.16.2.1 To adjust the cutting time
1. Place the cursor by Cutting time and press OK.
2. Use the right and left arrow keys to increase or
decrease the cutting time in 3 preset intervals.

3.17 Installation

For many working areas there is no need to change the
factory settings but sometimes, depending on the lawn
complexity, the mowing result can be improved by
making manual settings.

3.17.1 Lawn coverage
This menu function is used to steer the robotic
lawnmower to remote parts of a working area. This
important function is used to maintain an even mowing
result in the entire working area. In very complex yards
with for instance many areas which are joined by narrow
passages, the mowing result can be improved by
making a number of manual settings as described
below.
It is also possible to test exit settings and to identify the
distance from the charging station to a remote area.
The factory settings for Automower 420 and Automower
440 let the robotic lawnmower follow the guide wire 300
m / 984 ft. in 20% of the times it leaves the charging
station. If the guide wire in reality is less than 300 m /

984 ft. the robotic lawnmower will follow it to the point
where the guide wire is connected to the boundary wire.
There is no need to set Lawn coverage manually for
Automower 430X and Automower 450X. They use a
built-in GPS to check which areas have been mowed
and thereby which areas need to be mowed next.
Automower 430X and Automower 450X will this way
automatically get to parts of the working area that are
hard to reach.
Note: No manual settings need to be made if GPS
assisted navigation is used.
3.17.2 GPS assisted navigation
GPS assisted navigation is applicable for Automower
430X and Automower 450X only. It uses a built-in GPS
to check which areas have been mowed and thereby
which areas need to be mowed next. After a number of
days operating, the robotic lawnmower creates a map of
the working area. Automower 430X and Automower
450X automatically set distance and proportion for hard
to reach parts of the working area.
Note: If the same robotic lawnmower is used for two or
more charging stations that are close together
(neighbors for instance), the GPS assisted navigation
can only be used in one of the working areas. Otherwise
the digital map can be misleading and the robotic
lawnmower's lawn coverage can therefore be reduced.
3.17.2.1 Deactivate GPS assisted navigation
(Automower 430X and Automower 450X)
You must deactivate GPS assisted navigation if you
want to use manual settings. When you deactivate GPS
assisted navigation the GPS map is automatically reset.
Use the arrow keys to mark the area for manual settings
and press OK.
3.17.3 Area 1-5
Up to 5 (3 for Automower 420) remote areas can be set.
A number of unique selections are required to allow the
robotic lawnmower to reach the remote area.
Note: When GPS assisted navigation is activated this
will be used as long as there is a GPS service - even if
manual settings have been made. Only when GPS
service is not available the manual settings will be used.
3.17.3.1 Area 1-5 > How?
Specify to the right, left or Guide depending on which
direction the robotic lawnmower should go. The direction
(right or left) is counted as that seen facing the charging
station.
