Movement pattern

The mower’s movement pattern is irregular and is determined by the Automower itself. A movement pattern is never repeated. This mowing system means the lawn is mown equally without any mowing lines.

If the Automower enters an area where it senses the grass is longer than earlier, it can change the movement pattern. It can then mow in a square pattern to cover the area of longer grass more systematically. Thereafter the mower returns to the irregular movement pattern.

When Automower mows in a square pattern, this is known as square mode cutting. The main switch must be set to ON and the mower must have been operational for about 13 - 14 hours in order for Automower to start square mode cutting.

2.3 Search method

Automower can be set to search for the charging station in three different ways. Using the setting options the three search methods can be combined to optimize the search for the charging station. The required search method or methods depends on the shape of the garden.

Search method 1: Irregular

Automower runs irregularly until it finds the charging station.

This search method is best for an installation that has an open lawn and no narrow passages (narrower than about 10 ft).

The advantage of this search method is that there is no risk of leaving tracks in the grass after the mower.

The disadvantage is that the search times can be somewhat longer.
