ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS Installation Guide Trees This chapter explains how to install the Robotic Mower. Please read this completely before The Robotic Mower treats trees as common obstacles, but if the roots of the tree are exposed you start the installation. and lower than 100mm, this area should be excluded using boundary wire in order to protect the tree root, cutting blades or rear wheels from damage.
Page 16
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS The boundary wire should never run perpendicular to a gradient of more than 10°. If the driveway and lawn are at the same level, feel free to use the boundary wire to create a Likewise, please allow a corridor of at least 2m between a 10° or steeper slope and the boundary corridor.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS Flowerbeds Ponds and Pools Use the boundary wire to exclude any flowerbeds from the cutting area. There are two options While the Robotic Mower is protected against rain and spray water, being submerged is likely to cause severe damage to the electronic parts. for the two lengths of boundary wire running between the flowerbed and the outer boundary: Therefore, it is imperative to exclude any pools from the cutting area.
Page 18
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS Keep in mind that flowers, bushes and surrounding shrubbery will change in size over a season. The docking station (5) must be placed on a flat surface, at ground level. Please allow sufficient space between boundary wire and other plants to avoid interference year- around.
Page 19
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS Pegging out the boundary wire Do not place the docking station too close to a slope, such as at the top of a hill or the bottom of a furrow. Avoid left and right inclination in excess of 5 degrees. We strongly recommend mowing the lawn to 60 mm or less before laying out the boundary wire.

OPERATION OPERATION Control Panel Lock Control panel will be locked when the Robotic Mower is restarted using the mains power switch. Once the Robotic Mower is fully charged, it is ready for programming. While the default factory settings will suit the majority of users, it is worth familiarising yourself with the options available.

OPERATION OPERATION Status indicator LEDs Working time setting Lift signal A red LED above this symbol shows that the lift sensor has triggered. The above buttons let you choose the mower's daily working hours. Please refer to the below table for the recommended working time per day, depending on the Note: Vibrations or collisions can also trigger the lift sensor.

OPERATION OPERATION Edge cutting Press S1 or S2 on the control panel to match the Robotic Mower's signal to the docking station's. The button of the currently active signal is illuminated. As the first cutting action of each day, the Robotic Mower will trim the lawn edge. Therefore, while cutting, it follows the boundary wire in clockwise direction.

CLEANING/MAINTENANCE CLEANING/MAINTENANCE Preparing for spring Work that has not been described in these instructions must be carried out by a servicing agency authorised by the manufacturer. Only use original parts. After winter storage, please clean the charging contacts on both the Robotic Mower and the docking station.
