14.5 Home area

The robotic mower identifies its location
using the built-in GPS receiver. During
each edge following run to check the
correct wire routing ( 9.12) and when
learning the starting points (
robotic mower stores the coordinates of
the most westerly, easterly, southerly and
northerly point.
This area is defined as the home area and
the robotic mower can be used here. The
coordinates are updated each time edge
following is repeated.
When GPS protection is activated, the
owner of the machine is notified if the
machine is operated outside the home
area. The PIN code is also requested on
the robotic mower display.

15. Operating the machine

15.1 Preparation

An installation assistant is available
for initial installation. (
The robotic mower should be
charged and operated at an
ambient temperature between +5°C
and +40°C.
● Install the docking station (
● Route ( 9.9) and connect (
perimeter wire
● Remove foreign bodies (e.g. toys,
tools) from the mowing area
● Charge the battery ( 15.7)
● Set the time and date (
0478 131 9965 A - EN
● Check the mowing plan and adapt if
necessary – in particular it must be
ensured that third parties keep away
from the danger area during active
times. (
Cut very high grass short using a
conventional lawn mower prior to
11.14), the
use of the robotic mower
(e.g. following a lengthy break).

15.2 Flap

The robotic mower is equipped with a flap
which protects the display from the
weather and from inadvertent operation. If
the flap is opened during use of the robotic
mower, operation is stopped and the
mowing blade and robotic mower come to
a standstill.
Opening the flap:
For safety reasons, the Stop button
must be pressed before opening
the flap during operation of the
robotic mower.
9.)
9.8)
9.10) the
Grasp the flap (1) at the lifting point (A)
and release upwards by pulling lightly.
11.10)
Open the flap as far as the stop.
11.7)
The opened flap can be removed
upwards from the machine. This
design is implemented for safety
reasons: this ensures that the
machine cannot be lifted and
carried by the flap.
Closing the flap:
Carefully fold the flap downwards and
allow to engage.
The robotic mower can only be
operated when the flap is fully
engaged.

15.3 Adapting the programming

The current programming can be seen in
the mowing plan or in the iMOW® app.
( 11.7)
The mowing plan is calculated based on
the size of the mowing area during
installation or during the creation of a new
mowing plan.
The active times and the mowing
duration can be changed individually.
With the mow plan type Standard the
robotic mower mows and charges
precisely within the active times, with the
mow plan type Dynamic the necessary
mowing operations are automatically
distributed over the possible active times.
If required, several mowing or charging
operations can run during an active time. If
required, the edge of the mowing area can
be cut automatically at regular intervals.
( 11.13)
Up to three different active times per day
are possible. ( 14.3)
If the robotic mower has to travel to
specific areas of the mowing area, starting
points must be defined. ( 11.14)
