Installing The Robotic Mower; Preparing The Lawn And The Robotic Mower For Operation - Stihl RMI 632 PC-L Instruction Manual

10 Installing the Robotic Mower

During automatic operation, the robotic mower stops if the
hood contacts a solid obstacle taller than 3.9 in. (10 cm).
The robotic mower then turns and continues automatic
mowing in another direction. If the impact sensor is triggered
too frequently, the mowing blade will stop rotating.
NOTICE
The impact sensor may not detect certain obstacles, such as
small flower pots or other lighter objects, which can be
knocked over or damaged. STIHL recommends removing
obstacles or blocking them off by creating restricted areas
through the placement of the perimeter wire, @ 11.6.
5. Lifting protection
If you attempt to lift the robotic mower by the hood or at the
carrying handle during operation, its lift sensor will be
activated and will stop the mowing blade within a short
period. Nevertheless, do not attempt to lift or reach under
the robotic mower for any reason without first activating the
disabling device and ensuring that the mowing blade has
stopped.
6. Tilt sensor
If the robotic mower exceeds the permissible incline of more
than 24° (45 %), the robotic mower will turn and continue
mowing in a different direction. An incline of 24° corresponds
to a vertical height increase of a = 17.7 in. (45 cm) for a b =
39.4 in. (100 cm) horizontal distance. Exclude such inclines
from the mowing area and trim the excluded area with a
suitable line trimmer or other tool.

In the event of a rollover, the wheel drive stops and the
mowing blade will stop within a short period.
7. Illuminated display
The display is backlit during operation to help you track the
robotic mower in darkness.
8. Anti-theft alarm
When the anti-theft feature is activated:
– An alarm sounds when the robotic mower is lifted unless
the PIN code is entered within one minute, @ 15.4.
– If you replace the docking station or robotic mower after
completing the initial setup, you will need to link the
robotic mower and docking station before use, @ 10.6.
9. GPS protection
For theft detection, STIHL recommends activating the GPS
protection feature. When GPS protection is activated:
– The registered owner of the robotic mower will be notified
through the iMow App if the unit is carried more than
1640 ft. (500 m) away from the perimeter of the
established mowing area, @ 15.4.
– When low, medium or high security levels are set, the
robotic mower can be operated outside the established
mowing area only after the security PIN code is entered,
@ 15.4.

10.1 Preparing the Lawn and the Robotic Mower for
Operation
To prepare the lawn for installation of the perimeter wire:
► Mow the lawn using a conventional lawn mower. An ideal
grass height is 2.4 in. (6 cm) or less.
► If the surface is hard and dry, water the mowing area
lightly in order to make it easier to drive in the perimeter
wire stakes.
