Bosch Power Tools F 016 L94 038 | (04.11.2020)

22 | English

uBefore working on the docking sta-

tion or power supply, remove plug

from mains.

Clean the exterior of the machine thor-

oughly using a soft brush and cloth. Do

not use water, solvents or polishes.

Remove all grass and debris, espe-

cially from the ventilation slots.

Turn the mower upside down and

clean the blade area and the swivel

castors regularly. Use a stiff brush or

scraper to remove compacted grass

clippings (see figureI).

Blades are reversible.

uMake sure all nuts, bolts and screws

are tight to ensure safe working with

the garden tool. (seefigureJ)

uPeriodically visually inspect the ma-

chine and replace worn or damaged

parts for safety.

uEnsure that only official Bosch re-

placement parts are used.

uReplace all blades and bolts as a set

as required.

Storage in winter

uTurn off the mower using the isol-

ator switch.

uThe mower will operate between

5°C and 45°C. During the winter

season once the temperature in the

garden is consistently below 5°C

store the mower and the docking sta-

tion in a secure, dry place, out of the

reach of children.

Do not place other objects on the

mower or docking station.

It is recommended to use the original

packaging when transporting the In-

dego over long distances.

uStore the mower only within a tem-

perature range between –20°C and

50°C. As an example, do not leave

the mower in the car in summer.

USB

uThe mower has a USB interface

which is to be used exclusively for

software updates (see figure M). Use

only approved USB.org sticks

(formatted to FAT32) and approved

USB.org OTG cables.

uFor more information on software

updates, please refer to www.bosch-

diy.com/indego-help.

uDo not use the USB interface for

any additional purposes. Do not

plug any external devices. Do not

operate the machine with the

cover of the USB port open.

Recommendations for Optimal

Handling of the Battery Pack

uDo not open the battery. There is a

risk of short-circuiting.

Protect the battery against

heat (e.g., against continu-

ous intense sunlight), fire,

water, and moisture. There is a risk of

explosion.

uKeep any unfitted battery away

from paper clips, coins, keys,

nails, screws or other small metal

objects, that can make a connec-

F 016 L94 038 | (04.11.2020) Bosch Power Tools

English | 23

tion from one terminal to another.

Shorting the battery terminals to-

gether may cause burns or a fire.

uIn case of damage and improper

use of the battery pack, vapours

may be emitted. Ventilate the area

and seek medical help in case of

complaints. The vapours can irritate

the respiratory system.

uThe battery can be damaged by

pointed objects such as nails or

screwdrivers or by force applied

externally. An internal short circuit

can occur and the battery can burn,

smoke, explode or overheat.

uIf used incorrectly or if the battery

is damaged, flammable liquid may

be ejected from the battery. Con-

tact with this liquid should be

avoided. If contact accidentally

occurs, rinse off with water. If the

liquid comes into contact with

your eyes, seek additional medical

attention. Liquid ejected from the

battery may cause irritation or burns.

uDo not short-circuit the battery.

There is a risk of explosion.

uUse only Bosch battery packs in-

tended specifically for the ma-

chine. Use of any other battery

packs may create a risk of injury and

fire.

uEnsure the switch is in the off posi-

tion before inserting battery. In-

serting the battery pack into ma-

chines that have the switch on can

cause accidents.

uOnly open the battery compartment

when the battery is exhausted.

Leave the battery in the machine for

storage in winter. The built-in battery

is very long-lasting; do not open the

battery compartment until you no-

tice a significant reduction in the run

time between two battery charging

procedures.

uThe Indego will operate between 5°C

and 45°C. If the battery temperature

is outside this range, the Indego will

display a message and will not leave

the docking station. If operating, the

Indego will return to the docking sta-

tion or stay in place.

uRecharge only in the Bosch ap-

proved docking station.

Safety Warnings for Docking Station

and Power Supply

uOnly use the original Bosch dock-

ing station and power cord to

charge the mower. Otherwise there

is danger of fire and explosion.

uCheck the docking station, power

supply unit, cables and plugs peri-

odically. If damage or ageing is de-

tected, isolate from the docking

station or power supply and do not

use them. Never open the docking

station or power supply yourself.

Have repairs performed only by a

qualified Bosch technician and

only using original spare parts. A

damaged docking station, power

Bosch Power Tools F 016 L94 038 | (04.11.2020)

24 | English

supply, cable or plug increases the

risk of an electric shock.

uDo not operate the docking station

and power supply on easily flam-

mable surfaces (e.g., paper, tex-

tiles, etc.) or surroundings. The

heating of the docking station and

power supply during the charging

process can pose a fire hazard.

uSupervise children at all times.

This will ensure that children do not

play with the docking station, power

supply or the machine.

uThe voltage indicated on the power

supply must correspond to the

voltage of the power source.

uWe recommend that the power sup-

ply is only connected into a socket

which is protected by a circuit-

breaker that would be actuated by a

30mA residual current. Check your

Residual Current Device (RCD) at

regular intervals.

uThe supply cord must be inspected

for signs of damage at regular inter-

vals.

uIn the event of flooding of the dock-

ing station turn off power supply at

mains and contact Bosch Service

Centre.

uNever touch the mains plug or any

other plugs with wet hands.

uDo not run over, crush or pull the

cables. Protect the cables from heat,

oil and sharp edges.

The power supply is double insulated

for safety and requires no earth con-

nection. The operating voltage is

230VAC, 50Hz (for non-EU countries

220V, 240V as applicable). Contact

your Bosch Service Centre for details.

If in doubt contact a qualified electri-

cian or the nearest Bosch Service

Centre.

Installation

With the following QR code, you can view a video on how to

install the mower under www.bosch-diy.com/indego-help.

Alternatively, follow the Installation Guide delivered with the

product.

Check if the perimeter wire is fully pegged to

the ground avoiding any slack lengths of wire.

Any loose wire can be a trip hazard.

Remove stones, loose pieces of wood, wire, live mains

cables and other foreign objects from the cutting area.

Make sure that the cutting area is even and has no ditches,

grooves and steep slopes above 15°/27% that are clear ob-

structions for the mower.

The docking station must be positioned on the wire at an

outer edge of the cutting area. It may not be positioned on

the side of a tool or garden shed standing as an island within

the lawn to be mowed.

It is recommended that you mow your lawn once with a con-

ventional lawnmower before installing and before the first

mowing of the new season and whenever the grass clippings

would be longer than 5 mm.

The mower's cutting system is designed to cut small lengths

of grass (30–50mm). The clippings can remain as mulch to

fertilize the lawn. The height of cut for mower can be adjus-

ted to 30, 40 and 50mm.

It is recommended to start with a higher setting and then

gradually decrease the height of cut as the wire disappears

under the grass. This prevents your Indego from cutting the

wire.

Additional perimeter wire can be added using a wire con-

nector (see figures D–E).

The perimeter wire can be extended up to a maximum length

of 350m.

The perimeter wire can be buried up to 5 cm under the

ground (or under non-metallic slabs).

To avoid causing damage to the perimeter wire, do not verti-

cut or rake the area where it is positioned.

When laying out the wire avoid angles of less than 45°. This

can affect the performance.
