Maintenance and Storage
Cleaning the Robot Mower
Lift the front and rear covers and remove any collected debris, grass
clippings and dust using a soft brush, vacuum or damp cloth. Repeat for
the bottom side of the robot using care when handling the blade disc and
blades. It is important to keep the blades free from accumulated grass
clippings to ensure proper operation of the robot mower. Ensure all
retaining screws are secure.
Clean and brush the contacts on the robot mower and the docking
station charging arms with steel wool or emery paper.
Cleaning the Docking Station
Remove dirt, grass and other debris from the docking station base plate
on a regular basis.
Blade Replacement
The Robot Mower blades are accessible when you turn the mower
upside down (see Figure 8). Blades have two edges and two sides. The
blades can be turned over one time before replacing. Blade replacement
is indicated when grass shows prominent white edges after cutting or
the mower makes excessive vibration noise. Turn all three blades over or
replace all three blades by unscrewing the three retaining screws.
Blades are extremely sharp and will cut even when dull.
Use caution when replacing.
Wear gloves to protect hands from cuts.
Battery Replacement
The Robot Mower battery can be accessed by removing the four
retaining screws on the battery compartment cover on the bottom of
the Robot mower (see Figure 9). Always replace with a manufacturer’s
authorized replacement.
Storage
Disconnect the docking station from the AC power adapter. Remove
the ends of the boundary wire from the docking station. Turn the power
switch off on the Robot Mower to protect the battery. Store the Robot
Mower, docking station and AC adapter and cords in a dry frost free
area. Cover the ends of the boundary wire with electrical tape. To help
preserve the life of the battery, check the charge status of the battery
and recharge the battery in the docking station at regular intervals.
