Maintenance; Winter Storage - Husqvarna AUTOMOWER 305 Operator's Manual

8. Maintenance

Check and clean the Husqvarna robotic lawnmower
regularly and replace worn parts if necessary to
improved operating reliability and to ensure a longer
service life. For more information on cleaning, see
8.4 Cleaning on page 58.
When the robotic lawnmower is first used, the blade
disc and blades should be inspected once a week. If
the amount of wear during this period has been low,
the inspection interval can be increased.
It is important that the blade disc rotates easily. The
edges of the blades should not be damaged. The
lifetime of the blades varies immensely and depends
for instance on:
• Operating time and size of the working area.
• Type of grass.
• Type of soil.
• The presence of objects such as cones, windfalls,
toys, tools, stones, roots and the like.
The normal life is 1 to 3 months when used in areas
more than 300 m in size and longer for smaller areas.

See 8.7 Blades on page 60 on how to replace the
blades.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Working with dull blades gives a poorer
mowing result. The grass is not cut cleanly
and more energy is needed resulting in the
robotic lawnmower not mowing such a
large area.

8.1 Winter storage

Robotic lawnmower
The robotic lawnmower must be cleaned carefully
before putting it away for the winter. See
8.4 Cleaning on page 58.
Charge the battery fully before winter storage. Then
set the main switch to 0.
Check the condition of wear items such as blades
and bearings in the rear wheel. Rectify if necessary to
make sure the mower is in good condition prior to
next season.
Store the mower upright in a dry area free from frost,
preferably in the mower's original packaging.
