Robomower RL500/RL550/RL800/RL850
Safety Features
1. Child Guard / Safety Guard
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. Lift Sensor
There is a sensor located on the front caster wheel of the mower. In the event the front of the
mower is raised approximately 1-inch from its resting position on the ground during blade
operation, the blades will stop rotating immediately (< 1 second).
3. Sensor Equipped Bumpers
The front and rear bumpers are equipped with contacts that will activate when the mower strikes
a solid, fixed object when that object is at least 6-inches in vertical height from the supporting
surface of the mower. When the bumper sensor is activated, the mower will stop movement in
that direction and reverse itself away from the obstacle. In manual blade operation, bumper
activation will stop the rotation of the blades immediately (<1 second).
4. Emergency Stop Switch
Located on the top outer surface of the manual controller, red in color. Pressing this button at
any time during operation will stop all mower movement and stop the rotation of the blades
immediately (<1 second).
5. Automatic Mode Recognition
The Robomower is designed so that it cannot be operated in the manual mode while the Manual
Controller is in its’ pocket and it cannot operate in the automatic mode while the Manual
Controller is removed.
6. Two-Step Operator Presence Control
While in manual mode, it requires two independent finger actions in order to engage the mower
blades. Once engaged, the mower blade button must remain depressed to continue blade
operation. Once released, the two-step engagement process must be repeated.
7. Electronically Controlled Charging System
The Robomower 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.
8. Sealed Power Pack
The power pack that operates the Robomower is completely sealed and will not leak any type of
fluids, regardless of position. In addition, the power pack contains a one-time-use fuse in the
event of a short-circuit or power malfunction.
