4 Safety Precautions
► Remove foreign objects from the mowing
area.
► Remove broken off blades or parts of
blades from the mowing area.
■ When the STOP pushbutton is pressed, the
blade disk with the blades will continue to
rotate for a short time. People may be seri‐
ously injured.
► Wait until the blade disk is no longer rotat‐
ing.
■ If the blades hit a hard object during the mow‐
ing operation, sparks can be produced and the
blades can be damaged. Sparks can cause
fires in a flammable environment. Persons
may be seriously or fatally injured, and prop‐
erty may be damaged.
► Do not use in a flammable environment.
► Make sure that the blades are in a safe
condition.
DANGER
■ If the robot mower is operating near live elec‐
tric cables, the blades can come in contact
with the cables and damage them. There is a
risk of serious or fatal injury.
► Do not operate the robot mower in the vicin‐
ity of live cables.

■ A damaged or defective power supply may
produce an unusual smell or emit smoke dur‐
ing the charging process. This may result in
injury to people and damage to property.
► Disconnect the mains plug from the wall
socket.
■ The power supply can overheat and cause a
fire if heat dissipation is inadequate. Persons
may be seriously or fatally injured, and prop‐
erty may be damaged.
► Do not cover the power supply.

► Check that the wires and their mains plugs
are undamaged.
If the connecting cable or the extension
cord is damaged:
► Do not touch the damaged area.
► Disconnect the mains plug from the
wall socket.
► Be sure your hands are dry before touching
the wires and their mains plugs.
► Insert mains plugs only in a properly instal‐
led and fused wall socket.
► If the wall socket is outside of a building:
Make sure that the socket is approved for
outdoor use.
► Install the power supply with a fault current
circuit breaker (30 mA, 30 ms).
► If the connecting cable or extension cable is
connected or disconnected, always grip the
plug and do not pull on the cable.
■ A damaged or unsuitable extension cable can
result in electric shock. There is a risk of seri‐
ous or fatal injury.
► Use an extension cable with the correct
cable cross-section,
► Use a splash water protected extension
cable approved for outdoor use.
► Protect plug connection between the power
supply and extension cable against water.
► Use an extension cable with the same
specifications as the power supply's con‐
necting cable.
WARNING
■ An incorrect line voltage or mains frequency
can result in an overvoltage in the power sup‐
ply. The power supply may be damaged.
► Make sure the line voltage and mains fre‐
quency match the data on the power sup‐
ply's rating label.
■ If the power supply is connected to a power
strip, electrical components may be overloa‐
ded during the charging process. The electri‐
cal components may overheat and cause a
fire. Persons may be seriously or fatally
injured, and property may be damaged.
► Ensure that the technical specifications for
the power strip are not exceeded by the
information on the rating plate of the power
supply and of all electrical devices connec‐
ted to the power strip.
■ An improperly routed connecting cable, exten‐
sion cable or charging cable can be damaged
and cause people to trip over them. This may
result in serious injury to people and damage
to property.
