    Chapter 3- Understanding the Robotic Mower Thank you for purchasing our Robotic Mower. Over the next few pages, the Robotic Mower will be explained in further detail considering t h e operation procedure. 3.1 Packaging contents Please inspect all packaging contents as follows: Fig.1 Robotic Mower Blades (3 pcs+3pcs)
  • Page 10: The Robotic Mower Basic Operating Principles

    3.2 The Robotic Mower basic operating principles The Robotic Mower chooses its direction randomly, which means it will mow your garden completely, without leaving behind any uncut parts in the area you have defined within the boundary wire. Once the Robotic Mower detects a c o r r e c t l y installed boundary wire, it will turn around and head in a different direction inside the area.
  • Page 11: Chapter 4 - Installation Guide

    Chapter 4 – Installation guide This chapter explains how to install the Robotic Mower, please read this completely before you start the installation. 4.1. Introduction We recommended you to make a sketch of your lawn, including all obstacles and how these should be protected.
  • Page 12: Boundary Wire

    4.3. Boundary wire You may choose to either install the boundary wire above or below the soil of the lawn. A mixture of installations is acceptable as well. It is recommended to cut the lawn as low as possible where the wire will be installed beforehand. - Installation on the soil Attach the boundary wire onto your lawn with pegs.
  • Page 13 Trees The Robotic Mower treats trees as common obstacles, but if some roots of the tree are exposed in your garden and lower than 100 mm, this area should be protected in order to prevent the tree root, cutting blades or rear wheels profile damage.

    30cm 40cm 17%-35% <17%slope Fig.12 Paths, Driveways and Roads Exclude elevated pavements with a boundary wire loop. Place the wire around 20-30 cm away (Fig.13). 20-30cm Fig.13 Even pavements don’t need to be excluded. The Robotic Mower can drive over. The boundary wire is allowed to cross the pavement.

    ≥2m The potential location of charging station Fig.16A Fig.16B Fig.16C Locating the charging station After working, when your Robotic Mower's battery voltage is low, the Robotic Mower will automatically return to the charging station by following the boundary wire anti-clockwise. After a full recharge, your Robotic Mower will start again with its next cutting sequence (if within your set worktime window) (Fig.17A/Fig.17B).

    4.4.2 Connect the charging station with the boundary wire The wire leading to the front of the charging station must be thread underneath the base, using the cable holders on the station’s underside. Connect it to the connector marked "+", and connect the rear boundary wire to the connector marked “...

    4.5 Charging Information The device will return to the charging station in one of the following situations: 1. You press the Home button and close the LCD cover. 2. The battery capacity decreases to less than 30% . After a full charge, it will go back to work or wait in the base station until the next work time window is reached.
