the user when something has interrupted the charging operation, such as a loss of power to the Power
Supply for example.
The Power Pack should be fully charged before initiating any operation. In addition, you should have
examined the mower before operation to look for problems that may cause excessive energy consumption
and thereby less than optimum run-time. Examples include dull blades or heavy grass accumulation
around the blades. Other examples can be found in Chapter 6 Text Messages and Troubleshooting. First
and foremost, insure that the Power Pack is indeed fully charged before putting it to work. Only when the
LCD displays the message in Figure 4.5 is the RoboMower fully charged and ready for mowing. And
lastly, use the RoboMower for the job it was designed to do, cutting normal levels of grass growth.
The RoboMower can operate under two different run-time scenarios; 1) operate the maximum time
allowable by the system, where this time is dictated solely on the remaining level of energy in the Power
Pack and 2) where the run-time is set to operate a fixed amount of time set by the user, such as one hour
for example. Maximum operation will always display ‘Recharge Battery” after the cutting session and a
fixed time will display ‘Time Complete’ after the session. Under either of these operating scenarios it is
important to retrieve the RoboMower and place it on the Power Supply as soon as practical, preferably
within 6 hours from the time it stops operation.
The ‘Recharge Battery’ level has a higher priority in the power management system than ‘Time
Completed’ for the obvious reason that the Power Pack voltage is at a lower level. For this reason,
immediately following a ‘Recharge Battery’ message the RoboMower will emit a buzzer sound every 30
seconds for the next 20 minutes in order to alert you that the mowing session is completed and it is now
time to re-connect the Power Supply to the RoboMower. If the RoboMower is not connected to the Power
Supply
within the next 21 hours, a higher-level alarm will sound. If the Power Supply
is still not connected
after this alarm series, the mower will enter a deep sleep mode to conserve power. If the RoboMower
enters a deep sleep mode, the Power Pack must be removed for 10 seconds and then re-inserted in order
to wake up the RoboMower. However, if the mower reaches this level and the Power Supply
is not
connected soon, you risk causing poor performance and service life to the Power Pack.
Similar alarms will alert you to connect the Power Supply
if not connected after a fixed time, when
operating under fixed run-time settings. Lastly, if the Power Supply
is disconnected, even after the fully
charged message, the alert system will operate to remind you to keep the Power Supply
connected until
ready to use for mowing.
4.4 Off-season storage
When preparing the RoboMower for off-season storage, first fully charge the Power Pack and then store it
separately from the RoboMower in a dry location where the temperature will not drop below -20 ºC (-4ºF).
Recharge the Power Pack every three months while in storage.
Important!
For more details regarding the winter storage please refer to section 8.7.
