What to do if Gardena Lawn Mower is upside down?
If your Gardena Lawn Mower is upside down, it means it is leaning too much or has turned over. Turn the mower the right way up.
Why Gardena R45Li mows for shorter periods?
If your Gardena Lawn Mower is mowing for shorter periods than usual between charges, grass or another foreign object may be blocking the blade disc. Remove and clean the blade disc.
Why does my Gardena R45Li Lawn Mower say no loop signal?
A 'no loop signal' error on your Gardena Lawn Mower can occur for several reasons. It could be due to the transformer not being properly connected, so check the wall socket and the connection of the low voltage cable to the charging station. Also, the boundary wire might not be correctly connected to the charging station. In some cases, metal objects or buried cables nearby can cause disturbances; try moving the boundary wire. Finally, the connection between the mower and the charging station might be broken. To fix this, place the mower in the charging station and generate a new loop signal via Security -> New loop signal.
What to do if Gardena Lawn Mower cutting system blocked?
If the cutting system of your Gardena Lawn Mower is blocked, it's likely due to grass or another object wrapped around the blade disc. Check the blade disc and remove any obstructions. Alternatively, the blade disc might be sitting in a pool of water. If this is the case, move the mower and try to prevent water from collecting in that area.
Why Gardena Lawn Mower has no drive?
If your Gardena Lawn Mower has no drive, it could be because it has gotten caught on something. Free the mower and identify the reason for the lack of drive. If wet grass is the cause, wait until the lawn dries before using the mower. Also, if the working area includes a steep slope, this could be the reason. Maximum guaranteed slope is 25%. Steeper slopes should be isolated. Another reason could be that the guide wire is not laid at an angle on a slope. If the guide wire is laid on a slope, it must be laid at an angle across the slope.
How to fix Gardena R45Li Lawn Mower left wheel motor blocked?
If the left wheel motor of your Gardena Lawn Mower is blocked, it's likely because grass or another object has wrapped around the drive wheel. Inspect the drive wheel and remove any obstructions.
What to do if Gardena R45Li goes outside working area?
If your Gardena Lawn Mower is going outside the working area, it could be due to several reasons related to the boundary wire. The boundary wire connections to the charging station might be crossed, so ensure they are correctly connected. Also, the boundary wire may be too close to the edge of the working area, laid in the wrong direction around an island, or there might be disturbances from metal objects or buried cables nearby. In any of these cases, check that the boundary wire has been laid correctly or try moving it. Another reason may be that the robotic lawnmower finds it hard to distinguish the signal from another robotic lawnmower installation close by. In this case, place the robotic lawnmower in the charging station and generate a new loop signal via Security -> New loop signal....
What to do if Gardena R45Li displays right/left wheel overload?
If your Gardena Lawn Mower displays a 'right/left wheel overloaded' message, it means it has gotten caught on something. Free the mower and identify the reason for the lack of drive. If wet grass is the cause, wait until the lawn dries before using the mower.
Why Gardena Lawn Mower vibrates?
If your Gardena Lawn Mower is vibrating, it is likely due to damaged blades causing imbalance in the cutting system. Inspect the blades and screws, and replace them if necessary.
What to do if Gardena Lawn Mower charging station is blocked?
If the charging station of your Gardena Lawn Mower is blocked, it might be because the contact between the charging strips and contact strips is poor, causing the mower to make repeated charging attempts. Ensure the mower is properly placed in the charging station and that the charging strips and contact strips make good contact. Alternatively, an object might be obstructing the mower; remove any such object.
