Mowing
1. Lift the rear cover on top of the mower and adjust the cutting height
with the height adjustment dial. Close the cover before starting.
2. Lift the front cover to access the control panel and insert the security
key into the security key slot (see Figure 5). Close the cover.
3. Insert the security key and press the Power Switch to turn mower on.
4. Select the mow area size by pressing one of the three area buttons.
1/16 acre (~2,750 ft
2
)
requires 4 hours operating time,
1/8 acre (~5,500
ft
2
) requires 8 hours operating time, or
1/4 acre (~11,000
ft
2
) requires 12 hours operating time.
5. Press the Start button. The timer begins when the Start button is
depressed. The cutting cycle will repeat in 24 hour intervals. Remove
the security key after starting to prevent any alterations in the
programmed cycle. The Robot Mower will start by cutting along the
boundary wire.
6. The second time the robot runs from the docking station, it will mow
randomly in straight lines until there is 20% left of the battery, then
return to the docking station to recharge. After one hour of charging
the robot will resume cutting until working a total number of hours
corresponding to the size of lawn selected. Then it returns to the
docking station to wait for the next timed cycle.
NOTE: You can stop the Robot Mower at any time by pressing the red
STOP bar on top of the mower (see Figure 6). Press the HOME button to
send the robot mower back to the charging station.
7. To restart the Robot Mower after it has automatically shut down the
mower must be within 6-1/2 feet of the boundary wire and you must
reselect the mow area size and press the Start button. If the robot is
restarted when in the docking station a new timing cycle will begin.
