Introduction

Before Automower® can be started, the charging station and the boundary wire must be installed and the mower must be linked to the charging station. These movies provide a quick step-by-step guide to installing Automower®. You can watch each step by clicking the play icon and then using the movie controls.

STEP 1 - Placing and connecting the charging station

Place the charging station on level ground centrally in the main area with a large free area in front of it, and tap the pegs through the holes in the base plate to secure it to the ground. Connect the low voltage cable to the charging station and the transformer, and connect the transformer´s power cord to a 230 V wall socket.

STEP 2 - Laying out the boundary wire

Place the boundary wire approximately 30 cm from the edge of the lawn and secure the cable to the lawn with staples. Within a few weeks, the cable will be completely overgrown and invisible. The boundary wire must lie close to the ground so as not to be cut. The table can also be buried below the lawn surface. Life off cover on the charging station and slide in the ends of the boundary wire in the lowermost holes on the charging station.. After fitting the into the connector, press the connector into the metal pin on the charging station and refit the cover on the charging station.

STEP 3 - Cutting heights and mower settings

To adjust the cutting height, open the lid of the Automower® and turn the knob to the required position and close the lid. On the top of the Automower® there is a control panel under a flap. All mower settings such as operating times, PIN code, movement patterns etc can be managed via the main and submenu functions. Complete menu functions can be found on the user manual that you can download from this site.

STEP 4 - How Automower® works

Automower® automatically mows the lawn and continuously combines mowing and charging. Once charged, the mower reverses, turns around and leaves the charging station, normally in a randomly selected direction. It the goes about its work - ctting the grass up to and just over the boundary wire, coping with inclines and trimming closely around trees and shrubs. Its irregular cutting pattern across the lawn makes for a very even finish - since the grass is cut from many different angles.

STEP 5 - Automatic recharging

Automower® will recharge itself by docking into its charging station. This happens when the power levels of the battery becomes too low. The charging station sends out a signal that Automower® can sense at a distance of between 6-8 meters. When the mower seeks out its charging station, it reserves its power supply by ceasing to mow. It normally finds the charging station within a few minutes.
