Welcome to a friendly

home

Congratulations on on your purchase! You are just a few steps away

from meeting your best team player. Very soon you will come to count

on your new friend to do a perfect job.

It will independently depart from its base on predetermined days and

times, mow your lawn and return to base for charging

A preinstalled perimeter wire sets the boundaries (a “virtual wall”)

for your mower. It will be laid around the edges of your lawn and

objects that you want to protect.

The mower moves randomly within its working area, as deﬁned by

the perimeter wire. This kind of random movement provides the

perfect cut and ensures complete coverage of your lawn.

14 15

In addition, it follows the perimeter wire, when it mows the edges of

your lawn to give it a perfect ﬁnish.

Good-looking lawns are achieved by consistent mowing, which is

exactly what a robotic mower provides.

After following the clear installation instructions, you will be ready to

enjoy your free time, while your new friend looks after your lawn.

So where are we headed?

Correct installation of your mower will ensure maximum

results. This is what it takes to prepare it to do a perfect job

TIPS

• If there are additional zones in your lawn, place the Base

Station within the largest zone

• Make sure the ground is even and ﬂat, and that there are no slopes

• Keep a minimum of 1 meter / 3.3 feet from a sprinkler head

to avoid hitting the mower directly and damaging its internal

components

Consideration B

A min. of 3 m [10 ft] of straight

wire in front of the base and a

min. of 30 cm (1 ft) behind the

base to allow smooth docking

• Have your mower’s package nearby.

• Be sure to cut your grass with your old mower one last time

before you start wiring. This will make inserting pegs easier and

help ensure that the mower doesn’t cut the wire.

TIPS

Soft Obstacles

Soft obstacles are ﬂower beds, ponds or

small trees. They need to be protected by

creating Perimeter Islands.

OBSTACLES

Now you’re ready to install the Perimeter Wire. Let’s take it

step by step.

... A sunny day and a sunny mood

)

First Things First: Obstacles and Slopes

Before you put a single peg into the ground, take note of any obstacles

or slopes.

22 23

The slope is too steep if...

The mower tilts off the ground while climbing it. Exclude such

slopes from the cutting area.

SLOPES

Hard Obstacles

Hard obstacles are vertical, rigid and

higher than 15 cm (6 in), such as trees or

telephone poles.

If a Hard Obstacle has a diameter under 10

cm (4 in), it must be protected by a Perimeter

Island. If the diameter is larger, it’s not

necessary.

Slopes along the edge

To ensure your mower doesn’t slip off the lawn, especially when the

grass is wet, the Perimeter Wire must exclude a slope along the edge

of your lawn with an incline of over 15% - that is, 15 cm rise per 1 m [6

in rise per 3 ft].

TIP

Slopes within the Lawn

Your mower can mow areas within the

lawn with a slope of up to 35% [35 cm

rise per 1 m/14 in rise per 3 ft].

Max 35%

Less than

15 cm / 6 in

Less than 15%

1 m / 3 ft

More than 15%

1 m / 3 ft

More than

15 cm / 6 in

24 25

Lay it loosely along the perimeter as you walk along the lawn edge.

If you get to any area/object that needs special care, make sure you

carefully lay the Perimeter Wire as described in the following sections.

Start unwinding the wire counter-clockwise around the lawn,

starting at the Base Station’s location.

A. Make a Good

Start

Before you begin, walk

along the edge of your lawn

and plan how to set up the

Perimeter Wire. Take note of

all obstacles and slopes.

Peg

Once a tail is made, put the

ﬁrst peg into the ground to

secure the end of the wire

Perimeter Wire

Pull out approx. 30 cm (1 ft) of wire through the hole in the

spool’s plastic covering and peg the beginning of the wire to the

ground where you intend to install your Base Station.

24 25

• Insert pegs every few meters/feet and at corners. At this

early stage, set a minimal number of pegs. You will insert all

necessary pegs later.

• Pull the wire tight while hammering the pegs to their ﬁnal depth

in the ground.

• Take care not to damage irrigation pipes.

TIPS

32 cm (1 ft)

Leave a minimum of 1.2 m (4 ft) if the

edge of the lawn borders water.

When the edge is ﬂat or a drop, use

the short distance of the RoboRuler.

When the edge is a wall (more than 2

cm/ 1” above the ground level), use the

longer distance of the RoboRuler.

40 cm (1.3 ft)

B. Maintain Proper Distance

The Perimeter Wire is secured to the ground

by the pegs supplied with the product. Use

the RoboRuler to determine the distances

you should leave between the Perimeter

Wire and the lawn’s edge and obstacles.

• It is not necessary to bury the Perimeter Wire, though you

may do so, up to 5 cm (2 in) deep.

• Burying the wire along exposed areas, such as pavements,

is usually recommended.

• If additional Perimeter Wire is required in order to complete

the setup, you can extend it using the waterproof Wire

Connectors provided (see section 5-G “Splicing the

Perimeter Wire”).

TIPS

C. Make Smooth Turns

Maintain a 45° angle at all left-turn corners when laying the wire along

the perimeter.

20 cm / 8 in

26 27

• Wires leading to and from an island should be fastened with

the same peg

• Perimeter Islands should either be rectangular or round

Set the Perimeter Wire

clockwise around the

obstacle, otherwise

the mower will drive

into the Perimeter

Island or won’t be

able to mow the

area around it

properly.

TIPS

D. Protect Soft Obstacles

Objects such as ﬂower beds, ponds, or small trees must be protected

by setting Perimeter Islands.

Keep min. 1.5 m (5 ft) between

islands; if obstacles are closer

together, use one island.

If the distance between an island and the

perimeter wire is lower than 1.5 m (5 ft),

make the obstacle part of lawn’s edge.

ft) apart.

Hammer the extension cable into the ground so it’s not a tripping

hazard.

Don’t worry if your lawn looks patchy for the ﬁrst few days. It

will even out after the ﬁrst few mows!

Caution

• The Safety Switch should be set to ‘On’ during charging

• Don’t touch the blades

• Never mow when people, especially children or pets, are

nearby.

• Make sure the lawn is clear of debris. The limited warranty of

your mower does not cover damages caused by objects left in

the lawn.

G. Charge your mower

Place your mower on the Base Station and let it fully charge before

its ﬁrst mow (up to 24 hours). Once it is fully charged, it will depart

automatically according to its mowing schedule.

Learn how to conﬁgure automatic operation and manually bypass/

override it when needed

• The Area size setting automatically determines the required mowing

time for your lawn - the duration of a “Mowing Cycle”

• The mower usually performs several consecutive mowing operations

until it completes a full Mowing Cycle

• Each mowing operation starts at predetermined times, once the

mower is fully charged

• You can restrict automatic operation at particular times via the Inactive

Time setting

• Once a Mowing Cycle is completed, the mower will stay in the Base

Station until the next cycle begins

• The interval between mowing cycles is deﬁned by the Mowing

Frequency setting

• If required, extra mowing time can be added via the Mowing Hours

setting to improve mowing results.

Tell your mower how often to mow

Mowing Frequency* controls the periodicity of mowing cycles. The higher the

frequency, the more frequently your lawn will be mowed and vice versa.

Mowing frequencies:

Low - 1 Mowing Cycle per week

Medium - 2 Mowing Cycles per week

High - Lawn is mowed daily

*This option is only available for zones with a Base Station.

Periodic

maintenance

Once a month:

• Inspect the underside of the mower. Clean if necessary. Carefully

scrape the collected grass debris (using a small stick or similar

object) from under the mowing deck.

• Check the Perimeter Wire and add pegs where it is loose and not

tight to the ground. In case of seasonal changes in the lawn, make

sure to adjust the wire accordingly.

• Inspect the Base Station, clean it from mud and debris to allow

proper docking.

WARNING

Severe injury and damage hazard!

Always turn the Safety Switch off before lifting the mower. Blades

are very sharp. They can cause severe cuts or lacerations. Always

wear heavy work gloves when working with or around the blades.

NEVER use a damaged or broken blade. NEVER sharpen the blade

manually.

IMPORTANT!

NEVER use a high pressure water to clean the mower.

Liquids can damage components. Use only a damp or

wet cloth to wipe the surface clean after scraping.

60 61

Winter storage

The mower

• Charge the mower fully in its base

• Switch it off and remove the fuse

• Clean the mower and store it in dry indoor conditions at ambient

temperatures above 0˚C.

Base Station

• No winter storage is required for a Base Station. It can be left on the

lawn during the winter period.

• It is recommended to disconnect the Power Supply from the mains

during the winter storage period.

Winter service

• To allow better maintenance and to keep your mower in good

condition, it is recommended to bring it to a certiﬁed dealer for

service prior to winter storage.

• Winter service includes operations like cleaning the mower’s parts

and mowing deck, checking for worn parts (such as blades, drive

wheels and other moving parts) and replacing them if required,

testing the mower’s functions and safety components, checking the

battery, and uploading a latest software version, possibly including

newly added features.

Outside

The Perimeter Wire is too

close to the edge.

Move the wire towards the inner side of

the lawn.

The lawn slope near the

slopes.

The lawn’s edge is too

bumpy.

Fill holes and pits along the edge till

level with the ground.

Stuck In

indentations. Fill it with some earth.

Check if the Perimeter Wire is not

too close to the edge. Move the wire

towards the inner side of the lawn.

Check Mow

Height

Mowing system is in

overload due to very tall

grass or an obstacle that is

Frequently

asked questions

Mower does not dock properly and sometimes misses Base

Station’s contacts

The entrance to the Base Station is not ﬂat. Fill some ground

to ﬂatten the lawn around the Base Station to allow smooth

entrance. Make sure the Perimeter Wire is straight and

centered all the way under the Base Station.

The rain sensor stopped working

After a certain period of time in outdoor conditions the rain

sensor’s pins may become oxidized and thus less sensitive to

rain. Try to scrubbing the pins with a rugged damp or scotch.

Poor quality of mowing

The blades may be dull. Switch off the Safety Switch and try

swapping between blades or replacing them. Use heavy gloves

when inspecting blades.

The grass may be wet. For the best cut, operate the mower

when the grass is dry. It is recommended not to mow in the

early morning hours.

Patchy and uneven mowing

Minimize Inactive Time to allow the mower to complete

Mowing Cycle quicker. If it is the fast growing season - reduce

the time between mowing cycles via the Mowing Frequency

setting. Increase the allocated mowing time via the Mowing

Hours setting to compensate for the lawn’s shape complexity.

Mower does not depart from base for a long time

Press and hold the UP for 1 second while the mower is in the

Base Station. The non-depart reason code will be displayed

for 3 seconds. Refer to our online Help Center for a detailed

description of non-depart codes.
