8. MAINTENANCE

Charging station

Store the charging station and transformer indoors. The boundary wire and the guide wire can be left in the ground. The ends of the wires should be protected from damp by putting them in a container with grease for instance.

8.2 After winter storage

Check if cleaning is needed, particularly the charging strips on both the robotic lawnmower and the charging station, on the first time of use. If the charging strips appear to be burnt or coated, clean them using a fine grade emery cloth. Check also that the robotic lawnmower’s time and date are correct.

8.3 Cleaning

It is important to keep the robotic lawnmower clean. A mower with large amounts of grass stuck to it will not cope as well with slopes. It is recommended to clean using a brush and a spray bottle with water.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Never use a high-pressure washer or even running water to clean the robotic lawnmower. Never use solvents for cleaning.

Chassis and blade disc

1. Set the main switch in position 0.

2. Wear protective gloves.

3. Lift the robotic lawnmower onto its side.

4.Clean the blade disc and chassis using e.g. a dish brush.

At the same time, check that the blade disc rotates freely in relation to the foot guard.

If long blades of grass or other objects find their way in, these may impede the blade disc. Even a slight braking effect leads to a higher consumption of energy and longer mowing times, and at worst will prevent the robotic lawnmower from being able to mow a large lawn.

Chassis

Clean the underside of the chassis. Brush or wipe with a damp cloth.

Wheels

Clean around the front wheels and rear wheel as well as the rear wheel bracket.
