3.2.5.2
Robomow
ignores areas
Less than
2 hours
How much
time does the
Robomower
work before it
stops?
One or two big
areas, which
the mower
ignores or
covers
partially
NO
Y
ES
NO
Big plot area needs
either more than one
operation to fully cover
the area or it should be
separated into 2 plots
The average run time is 2.5
hours. Mowing session of less
than 2 hours may be caused by:
 Operating the Robomower
prior to getting ‘Ready – Keep
charging’ message
 Stopping the operation before
‘Recharge battery’ message is
received
 Settin
g
‘Work time’ less than 2
hours
 Operating in high/dense/wet
grass.
 Battery is coming to the end
of its natural life
 User negligence – charging
procedure is not followed
Many patches
not in specific
area
What is the
distribution
of the uncut
area?
Confirm the distance
between 2 adjacent
wires is inside the
allowed limit –
5.5ft
/
1.7m
Does the lawn have
a complex shape,
slopping area, or
many obstacles and
Perimeter Islands in
the lawn?

This plot either needs
more than one
operation to fully cover
the area or it should be

lots
T
he Robomow has the
ability to work inside
narrow passes as
defined in the
Operatin
g
Manual and
to cross such passes,
but the narrower the
pass and the lar
g
er the
areas on both sides of
the pass, the
probability to cross the
pass is smaller
 Increase the operation frequently
 Operate the mower more time
(possible with an extra Power Pack)
 Cut the un-mowed patches using
Manual mowing mode
Such lawn needs more
time to get fully

Are there
any

More than
2 hours
3.2.5.1
Many patches of
uncut grass
remain on the
lawn after the
Robomower had
finished working
Check the reason why the
Robomower works less than
2 hours (refer to flowchart
