TROUBLE SHOOTING

General trouble shooting tips

The dealer should have a test lawn of a least 5 x 5 m, sur- rounded by a loop cable and generator. This test lawn can be used in those cases where the customer has a problem with the lawn mower not detecting signals from the loop cable. Thereby making it possible to determine whether the operating disruptions are due to metal objects or electrical power lines in the customer's garden.

So called “islands“ (see the diagram below), which are formed with a loop around flowerbeds, fountains, etc. should be routed in the loop cable’s direction and have a diameter of at least 2 m (see the Operator’s Manual) to ensure its function. If the commands F1-9 are changed to increase sensitivity then smaller “islands“ can also be made, carry out tests before burying the loop cable.

All trouble shooting should be preceded by at least 1 hour of charging (with the switch in the off position) outdoors in the middle of the day, to eliminate the fault being badly charged batteries.

Read through the entire Workshop Manual and the Operator’s Manual to determine whether the fault is easily rectified via the keyboard or with the main power switch.

Solar panels

A number of solar panels connected together transform daylight into electrical energy. This electrical energy drives the lawn mower and charges the batteries.

When the lawn mower is in the sun its rays are sufficient to drive the lawn mower and charge the batteries.

The microprocessor is also used to measure the voltage levels from the solar panels, and thereby determine whether the lawn mower has gone into the shade or whether dusk is approach- ing.

In the evening, when the light intensity is too low, the lawn mower stops and signals with 1 beep every 10 seconds. This indicates the night mode.

If the lawn mower avoids the shade during the day, it is be- cause the batteries at the present time do not have sufficient capacity and to also ensure a long operating time. Large amounts of sun (sunny weather) allow the mower to charge fully before it starts to move, while small amounts of sun (cloudy) means that it charges a little and then moves hoping to find a sunnier part of the lawn.

If the lawn mower frequently stops to charge in the shadow, this is a sign that the batteries are deficient.

To check the operation of the solar panels the jointing sleeves 535 03 86-01 should be dismantled and the current from the front and rear solar panels should be measured.

The panel's connection cables should be connected as follows: The red cable from the box to the red cable from the front of the body (suitable length 85 mm).

The black cable from the box to the black cable from the rear of the body (suitable length 55 mm).

The black cable from the front of the body to the red cable from the rear of the body (suitable length 70 mm).

When the panels are connected together (in series) the cable runs to the box and is connected to the connector X1 at terminals 6 (black) and 7 (red). See the circuit diagram on the last page.

As the light intensity can vary a great deal it is difficult to specify an exact current, however, if a different current is measured from the front and rear solar panels at the same time, you may presume that the panel that generates the lowest current is faulty.
