6. Operation

6.1 Main switch

The robot lawn mower is equipped with a main
switch (7). Use the main switch (7) to switch the
robot lawn mower on (ON) and off (OFF) (Fig. 8).
Once the robot lawn mower has been switched
on, it is locked by a PIN.

6.2 Control panel

The robot lawn mower has already been pro-
grammed at the factory and default settings have
been made for it. However, these can be changed
if required. Even though the factory settings will
be suitable for most gardens, you should still
familiarize yourself with the available options ne-
vertheless.

6.3 Cutting height adjustment facility
Important! Adjust the cutting height only when
the robot lawn mower has been switched off . Do
this by pressing the STOP button (3). The cutting
height adjustment facility (4) allows the cutting
height of the robot lawn mower to be set to infi ni-
tely adjustable settings between 20 and 60 mm,
which can be viewed on the scale.
If the grass is taller than 60 mm it has to be shor-
tened to a maximum of 60 mm fi rst to avoid expo-
sing the robot lawn mower to excessive load and
adversely aff ecting its operating effi ciency. Use a
conventional lawn mower or trimmer to do this.
After installation has been completed, the cutting
height can be adjusted using the cutting height
adjustment facility (4). Always start with a higher
cutting height and reduce it in small steps until
you reach the desired height.
