Working method

The R40Li automatically mows the lawn.

It continuously combines mowing and charging.

The mower starts to search for the charging station when the battery charge becomes too low. R40Li does not mow when it is searching for the charging station.

When R40Li 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 mower leaves the charging station and starts mowing in a randomly selected direction within the 90˚ to 270˚ exit sector.

To ensure an even cut, even in inaccessible parts of the garden, the lawn mower 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 R40Li body hits an obstacle, the mower reverses and selects a new direction.

Two sensors, one at the front and one at the back on R40Li, sense when the mower approaches the boundary wire. The R40Li overruns the wire by up to 28 centimetres before it turns back.

The STOP button on the top of R40Li is mainly used to stop the mower when it’s running. When the STOP button is pressed a cover opens, behind which there is a control panel. The STOP button remains depressed until the cover is closed again. This acts as start inhibitor.
