Robomow® Safety Features

1. Child Guard / Safety Guard (Level I)

This menu option offers a safety feature to help prevent children or others not familiar with the safe

operation of the mower to operate it freely.

2. Anti-Theft / Safety Guard (level II)

The anti-theft system provides the user a disabling function that will prevent anyone from

using or driving the Robomow unless they have the valid code to enter. You will be prompted

to enter a four-digit code of your choice to use as your personal security code.

3. Lift Sensor

There is a Hall-Effect Sensor (Magnetic Position Sensor) located in the front side of

Robomow. In case the front of the mower is raised approximately 1-inch from its resting

position on the ground during blade operation, the blade will immediately stop rotating (< 1

second).

4. Tilt Sensor

There is an optical sensor located in the front side of Robomow. In case the front of the mower

is lifted up towards a vertically position, the blade will stop immediately and Robomow will

warn about it and instruct the user to remove the fuse before lifting Robomow.

5. Bumper Sensor

The bumper is equipped with Hall Effect sensor activates when the mower strikes a solid,

fixed object and when the bumper cover is open. When the bumper sensor is activated, the

mower will stop the rotation of the blade immediately (<1 second), will stop movement in that

direction and reverse itself away from the obstacle.

6. Emergency Stop Button

Located on the control panel, red in color. Pressing this button at any time during operation

will stop all mower movement and stop the rotation of the blade immediately (<1 second).

7. Batteries Fuse

Located below the bumper cover, on the left side of Robomow. Removing the battery fuse will

prevent any operation of the Robomow. It is required to remove the fuse before lifting

Robomow and before any maintenance is done.

8. Two-Step Operator Presence Control

While in manual mode using the remote control, it requires two independent finger actions in

order to engage the mower blade. Once engaged, the mower blade button must remain

depressed to continue blade operation. Once released, the two-step engagement process

must be repeated.

9. Electronically Controlled Charging System

Robomow is equipped with an on-board charge control system. This allows you to keep the

charger connected at all times, even after the battery is fully charged. The control system will

prevent an overcharge to the battery and keep it fully charged and maintained for the next

use.

10.Sealed Batteries

The batteries that operate the Robomow are completely sealed and will not leak any type of

fluids, regardless of position. In addition, the batteries contain a one-time-use fuse in the

event of a short-circuit or power malfunction.

WARNING!

This warning symbol will be found at severalpoints throughout the pages of this manual.It is intended to highlight an important safety,

warning or cautionary message.

Please pay particular attention to these

areas and be sure you fully understand

the message before proceeding.

11.Base Station/Perimeter Switch and Perimeter Wire

Robomow cannot operate without a perimeter wire installed and activated through the Base

Station/Perimeter Switch. In the event the Base Station/Perimeter Switch is turned off or

otherwise fails to function, Robomow will stop operating. Likewise, should a break in the

perimeter wire occur Robomow will again stop operation. A break in the perimeter wire prior

to operation will prevent Robomow from operating. It can only operate within the boundary of

the perimeter wire.

12.Automatic warning alert before operation

When the mower is scheduled to start the automatic operation from the Base Station per a

scheduled time, a warning buzzer and the operating lamp will activate 5 minutes prior to

operation. This is a warning notification to clear and inspect the area.

13. Over-heat Monitoring Protection

The blade motor and each of the two wheel drive motors are monitored continuously during

operation for any situation that may cause these motors to over-heat. In such event,

Robomow will stop operation of at least that motor and possibly the mower itself and indicate

that the motor is cooling down. While unusual, this may happen when the mower is on grass

that is severely overgrown; the underside of the mower is clogged from poor cleaning

maintenance; the mower has encountered an obstacle that is unable to activate the bumper

sensor preventing it from moving; or a problem landscape area has caused the mower to get

stuck and is preventing it from moving.

How It Works

A one-time setup is required before operating the Robomow; a small wire, called the perimeter

wire, is place around the edge of the lawn and any other areas where you do not want the mower to

enter.

Small pegs are supplied with the Robomow and they are used to fasten and hold the perimeter wire

to the ground, below grass level; the wire will soon disappear under the growth of new grass and will

not visible.

The Base Station is placed along the perimeter wire and it has two main functions:

-To generate a small signal along the perimeter wire (very low voltage);

-To charge the Robomow batteries.

After completing the one-time set-up of wire around the lawn including the Base Station, set the

weekly program and forget about mowing for the entire season!

Robomow will leave the Base Station on the day and time scheduled in the automatic weekly

program; it will mow the lawn and will drive back for charging in the Base Station to be ready for the

next operation.

When Robomow leaves the Base Station it automatically starts the signal carried through the Base

Station; the signal creates a virtual wall, which is visible only to the Robomow, keeping the

Robomow inside the lawn preventing it to cross over area where you do not want it to enter.
