The blades must be in good condition to obtain the best
mowing result. In order to keep the blades sharp for as
long as possible it is important to keep the lawn free
from branches, small stones and other objects.
Replace the blades regularly for the best mowing result.

1.2.3 Working method
The robotic lawnmower automatically mows the lawn. It
continuously alternates between mowing and charging.
When the robotic lawnmower body hits an obstacle or
approaches the boundary wire the robotic lawnmower
reverses and selects a new direction. Sensors at the
front and back will sense when the robotic lawnmower is
approaching the boundary wire. The front of the robotic
lawnmower always passes the boundary wire by a
specific distance before the mower turns around. The
distance can be changed to adapt to the installation if
required.
The STOP button on the top of the robotic lawnmower is
used to stop the robotic lawnmower from operating out
on the lawn. The STOP button also needs to be pressed
if the robotic lawnmower is in an active status, but
standing still in the charging station. After STOP is
pressed it is possible to press the keypad and, for
example, go into the menu or change operating mode.
The PIN code must be entered and confirmed by
pressing the OK button before it is possible to start
again. The PIN code together with pressing the Start
button act as a start inhibitor.
1.2.4 Movement pattern
The movement pattern of the robotic lawnmower is
random, which means that a movement pattern is never
repeated. With this cutting system the lawn is mown
evenly without any mowing lines from the robotic
lawnmower.
1.2.5 Finding the charging station
The robotic lawnmower operates irregularly until it
reaches the guide wire. Then it follows the guide wire to
the charging station. The guide wire is a wire that is laid
from the charging station towards, for instance, a remote
part of the working area or through a narrow passage. It
is connected with the boundary wire and makes it much
easier and faster for the robotic lawnmower to find the
charging station.
