3.5 Skipping Edge Mowing
The RoboMower provides a means that will allow you to skip the edge mowing process and start
directly with the scanning (mowing) process. In order to do this, simply press the ‘GO’ button two
times at the initial startup of the mower. Pressing ‘GO’ the second time immediately following the first
press will tell the mower to skip mowing the edge. See Figure 3.6. You may start the mower
anywhere within the perimeter that you choose, but at least 3 feet (1m) away from the closest
perimeter wire.

To skip the edge mowing, press
‘GO’ once more, otherwise it will
begin in edge mow.
3.6 Mowing Complete
When the RoboMower has operated the allotted time, it will simply stop in the lawn, waiting for you to
drive it back home and plug it into the
Power Supply
, ready for the next mowing session. As discussed
earlier, there will always be plenty of Power Pack energy available to drive the mower back to the
area where it is stored and charged. See Chapter 4 –‘Charging’ for more on charging instructions. The
LCD will display a text message as seen in Figure 3.7 if the mowing time is set to the default time of
‘MAX’ or the message as shown in Figure 3.8 if the mowing time has been selected to any time other
than ‘MAX’.
If the RoboMower has completed its mowing and it is more than 20 minutes before you arrive to move
it, the LCD screen will be blank. The RoboMower will shut itself down into a sleep mode after 20
minutes of inactivity at all times. This is an energy saving feature. Pressing the ‘GO’ button or
removing the Manual Controller from the holder will ‘wake up’ the RoboMower and display the
message that was on the LCD when it went into sleep mode. In this case, either the message in
Figure 3.7 or 3.8.

3.7 Driving and Navigation
The RoboMower is equipped with a Manual Controller that allows you to easily drive it from the lawn
back to a storage area when not in use. It also allows you to manually engage the mowing blades,
and while driving, to trim small areas of grass.
