GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING!

This machine can cause serious injuries. Follow

instructions below to reduce risk of accident and

injury.

IMPORTANT

READ CAREFULLY BEFORE USE

KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

PREPARATION

• Read the instructions carefully and make sure you

understand them fully. Be familiar with the controls and

the proper use of the machine.

• Never allow children, persons with reduced physical,

sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and

knowledge or people unfamiliar with these instructions

use the machine.

• Local regulations may restrict the age of the operator.

Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not

play with the appliance.

• The operator or user is responsible for accidents or

hazards occurring to other people or their property.

• Ensure the correct installation of the perimeter boundary

system as instructed.

• Periodically inspect the area where the machine is to

be used and remove all stones, sticks, wires, and other

debris which could cause damage to the machine or be

unsafe.

• Periodically visually inspect to see that the blades, blade

bolts and cutter assembly are not worn or damaged.

Replace worn or damaged blades and bolts in sets to

preserve balance.

• On multi-spindle machines, take care as rotating one

blade can cause other blades to rotate.

• Never leave the machine to operate unattended,

especially while other people such as children and pets

are in the area.

• Never use the machine to level out uneven patches.

• If the blades no longer cut correctly or if the motor is

overloaded, check all the parts of your equipment and

replace the worn parts. If a more extensive repair is

required, contact the customer service centre.

USE

• Do not put hands or feet near or under rotating parts.

• Never pick up or carry the machine while the motor is

running.

• Remove the plug from the mains or remove the disabling

device:

– before clearing any blockages.

– before checking, cleaning or maintaining the machine.

– after striking a foreign object to inspect the machine for

damage.

– if the machine starts to vibrate abnormally, and to

check for damage before restarting.

• Start Robotic Mower according to the instructions. When

the main power switch is in the ON position, make sure

you keep your hands and feet away from the rotating

blades.

8 9

GB GB

• Never lift the Robotic Mower or carry it around with the

mains switch is in the ON position.

• Do not let persons use the mower who do not know how

it works or behaves.

• Do not put anything on top of the Robotic Mower or its

docking station.

• Do not use the Robotic Mower with defective blade

discs, body, defective blades, screws, nuts etc.

• Avoid operating the machine in wet grass. Doing so can

cause additional wear and tear, and will increase the

amount of cleaning required.

WORK INTERRUPTIONS

• After the machine has been turned off, the cutting

cylinder will continue to rotate for a few seconds. Keep

hands and feet well away.

• Only remove blockages when the machine is standing

completely still.

• Switch off the power when the machine is transported,

lifted or tilted.

• Never leave the machine unattended. Children should

be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the

appliance.

CAUTION!

The following below outlines measures to avoid damage and

harm to both the Robotic Mower and people using it.

TAKING CARE OF YOUR MACHINE

• Switch off the power when the machine is to be carried

across uneven surfaces, for example steps.

• Inspect the machine before each use. Never operate

the machine if safety devices (e.g. impact protector,

parts of the cutting facility or bolts) are missing, worn

out or damaged. Check the power cable for damage. To

avoid imbalance, all tools and bolts must be changed as

complete sets.

• Only use spare parts and accessories that have been

supplied or recommended by the manufacturer. The

use of alien parts results in the immediate loss of all

guarantee claims.

• Ensure that all nuts, bolts and screws are firmly tightened

and that the machine is in a safe working condition.

• Never try to repair the machine yourself, unless you have

been trained accordingly. All work that has not been

listed in these instructions must only be carried out by

authorised servicing agencies.

• Treat the machine with the greatest care. Always keep

the tool clean. Follow the maintenance instructions.

• Never overload the machine. Always work within

the specified capacity range. Do not use low-power

machines for heavy-duty work. Do not operate the

machine for purposes for which it is not intended.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

CAUTION!

The following states how to avoid accidents and injuries due

to electric shock:

• Before each use, carry out a visual inspection of the

power and length and type of extension cords to be used

(not lighter than required by Clause 25.7) for any signs

of damage or ageing. Damaged mains power cables

increase the risk of electric shock.

10 11

GB GB

• Connect the machine to a power socket with a residual-

current circuit breaker that has a rated current of no more

than 30 mA.

• Always keep the extension cable well away from the

cutting tools. Should the power cable become damaged

during work, instantly disconnect the power cable

from the mains. DO NOT TOUCH THE POWER CABLE

BEFORE IT HAS BEEN DISCONNECTED FROM THE

MAINS! Risk of electric shock.

• The supply cord cannot be replaced. If the cord is

damaged the appliance should be scrapped.

• Keep extension cable away from blades and other

moving parts. They may damage the cable and result in

contact with live parts.

• Check that the mains voltage is the same as indicated on

the rating plate.

MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE

• Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight to be sure the

machine is in a safe working condition.

• Replace worn or damaged parts for safety.

• Ensure that only the recommended replacement cutting

blades are fitted.

• Ensure that batteries are charged using the charger

supplied or recommended by the manufacturer. Incorrect

use may result in electric shock, overheating or leakage

of corrosive liquid from the battery.

• Servicing of the machine should be carried out according

to manufacturer's instructions.

• In the event of leakage of electrolyte, flush with water/

neutralising agent, seek medical help if it comes into

contact with the eyes.

• Store the appliance with battery pack fully charged at

room temperature (around 20 °C).

• Every deep discharge cycle decreases the capacity of

battery pack. To prolong battery life, it is recommended

to charge the battery every 6 months over extended

periods of time without use.

TRANSPORT

The original packaging should be used when transporting

the Robotic Mower over long distances.

To safely move from or within the working areas:

• Press the STOP button to stop the mower.

• Move the main switch button to the OFF position if you

intended to carry the mower.

• Carry the Robotic Mower using the handle below at the

rear. Carry the mower with the blade disc away from the

body.

PRODUCT SAFETY WARNINGS

Not to touch moving hazardous parts before these have

come to a complete stop.

Do not store anything heavy on the top of the Robotic

Mower or docking station both during storage or when in

use.

Never use the device if the main power switch is damaged

or does not work properly. Never modify the main power

switch. Set the main power switch to OFF for storage or

when the device is not in use. Use the original packaging

when transporting the Robotic Mower, especially for long

distances.

12 13

GB GB

If you need to carry the Robotic Mower from or within the

working area, first press the STOP button to stop the device.

Secondly, ensure that the main power switch is switched

OFF before you lift up your Robotic Mower.

Thirdly, close the top cover, and carry the Robotic Mower by

the carrying handle at the rear under the mower, keeping the

blade disc away from your body as shown.

The carry handle includes two safety switches. Lifting

the device by the carry handle will trigger the switches,

deactivating the Robotic Mower.

LIGHTNING PROTECTION

In order to prevent lightning damage to the machine, do not

place the docking station under tall trees.
