2. PRESENTATION

Working method

The robotic lawnmower automatically mows the lawn. 
It continuously alternates between mowing and 
charging.

The robotic lawnmower starts to search for the 
charging station when the battery charge becomes 
too low. The robotic lawnmower does not mow when 
it is searching for the charging station.

When the robotic lawnmower searches for the 
charging station, it first searches irregularly for the 
guide wire. Then it follows the guide wire to the 
charging station, turns around just in front of the 
station and backs into it. 

When the battery is fully charged, the robotic 
lawnmower leaves the charging station in a randomly 
selected direction within the 90˚-270˚ exit sector.

To ensure an even cut, even in inaccessible parts of 
the garden, the robotic lawnmower can follow the 
guide wire out from the charging station to where the 
guide wire connects to the boundary wire to begin 
mowing there.

When the robotic lawnmower body hits an obstacle, 
the robotic lawnmower reverses and selects a new 
direction.

Two sensors, one on the front and one on the back of 
the robotic lawnmower, will sense when the robotic 
lawnmower is approaching the boundary wire. The 
robotic lawnmower overruns the wire by up to 
28 centimetres before it turns back.

The 

STOP

 button  on the top of the robotic 

lawnmower is mainly used to stop the robotic 
lawnmower when it’s running. When the 

STOP

 button 

is pressed a cover opens, behind which there is a 
control panel. The 

 

STOP

 

 button remains pressed in 

until the cover is closed again. This acts as a start 
inhibitor.
