Operating the Mower

The autonomous mower is programmed to mow grass within a boundary wire area. The autonomous mower moves into and out of a charging station which powers the autonomous mower battery.

The autonomous mower is contained by a boundary wire that surrounds the perimeter of the mowing area and may be used to keep the autonomous mower out of areas within the mowing area. The autonomous mower will bounce off the boundary wire and obstacles within the boundary area. A second wire, a guide loop, directs the autonomous mower to the charging station.

Dealer installation of boundary wires and charging station, and initial autonomous mower setup is recommended.

Separate mowing areas from any open water with a physical barrier.

The autonomous mower is designed to mow on an optimized schedule within an area to keep the grass at a desired height. Grass should be mowed to the desired height using a conventional mower before installation of the autonomous mower to maintain that height.

Machine adjustments to compensate for slopes may result in the machine following a curved path in some condition. This does not affect area coverage performance.

The autonomous mower can operate during rain. Boundary wire should be installed to keep the autonomous mower out of any areas prone to flooding or swampiness if the autonomous mower might be operating during or soon after rain.

A safety awareness message appears at the user interface during start up and other periodic times during use. This message will clear itself. To interact with the mower during normal mowing, press the stop button and clear the safety message.

Mowing schedules are programmed using the user interface. There are three operating modes: Mow on Schedule (AUTO), Mow Now and Go Home.
