How the Honda Robotic Lawnmower works / Features
Leave 5 mm of space or less between parts of the boundary wire.
Make sure that parts of the boundary wire do not overlap or cross.
Leave 30 cm to 50 cm
of space between the
boundary wire and
large objects.
Lay boundary wire
around objects
that you want the
lawnmower to avoid.
Leave 1 m of space between the
boundary wire and dangerous
areas such as ponds or holes.
Leave 30 cm to 50 cm
of space between the
boundary wire and the
mowing area boundary.
Laying boundary wire
The boundary wire location determines the parameters of the mowing area, this area
may consist of multiple sections in which the lawnmower can operate. For mowing start
point setup and detailed information please see “4 MENU SETTINGS” (
M
page 25).
The work area must conform to the following conditions if it includes sloping areas.
• The lawnmower can operate on slopes of 24° (45%). Do not include slopes in the work area that are more than 24° (45%).
• Lay the boundary wire in locations that have a slope of less than 10° (17%).
• If the location in which you are laying the boundary wire has a slope that is steeper than 10° (17%), do the following.
- Do not lay the boundary wire laterally across a slope that is steeper than 10°.
- Lay the boundary wire laterally across a relatively flat space, with a slope of less than 10°, that comes after the location
where the slope is more than 10° (17%). (Refer to the diagram below.)
* Laying the boundary wire where the slope is too steep has a bad effect on the lawnmower. This is because the lawnmower
follows along where the boundary wire has been laid.
More than
10° (17%)
Less than
10° (17%)

Useful features
Seasonal timer (
M
page 29)
The growth speed of lawn depends on
the season. With this function, you can
configure the ratio of the mowing time for
each season.
Quiet timer (
M
page 30)
You can set the blade speed, wheel speed
and timer for operating the lawnmower
quietly.
Spiral cutting (
M
page 36, 38)
With this function, the lawnmower can be
focused on mowing the area where the
lawn is not completely mown, or the growth
speed of the lawn is fast.
Edge cutting (
M
page 35, 38)
With this function, you can mow the
unmown area along the boundary wire.
Safety
Blades on the lawnmower
automatically stop when:
- You lift the lawnmower.
- The lawnmower is on a surface
with a slope that is too steep.
- The lawnmower becomes
overturned.
Quiet operation
The motor and rotating blades of
the Honda Robotic Lawnmower
operate much quieter than
traditional engine lawnmowers.
NOTE:
- Make sure to fill in “LAWN DIAGRAM” referring to the layout of boundary wire (
M
page 79).
