Action
Try to limit the work area or extend the
working time.
Replace all the blades and screws so
that the rotating parts are balanced.
Increase the cutting height and then
gradually lower it.
Check the lawn coverage settings and
optimise them for the installation.
Check the guide signal. Refer to

when idling. The battery voltage should
be more than 18 V in this test. Check that
both wheel motors start with 50% power.
Then increase the power to 100%. At
100% the speed of each wheel should be
at least 35 cm/second. Check that the
gearboxes of the motors are not slipping
by blocking each wheel. When blocking a
wheel, the speed should be 0 cm/second.
