Why is my Robomow Lawn Mower showing 'No Wire Signal'?
- L
  Linda MorrowAug 13, 2025
  The 'No Wire Signal' error on your Robomow Lawn Mower can occur for several reasons: * The Power Box/Perimeter Switch might not be turned on or properly connected. Ensure the Base Station is connected to the mains supply. * The Power Box may need a restart. Disconnect it from the mains power and reconnect after 10 seconds. * The Perimeter Wire might not be correctly connected to the Base Station/Perimeter Switch. Verify the low voltage cable between the Power Box and the Base Station is connected. * The Perimeter Wire might be cut. Inspect the installation for any cuts and repair the broken cable using the waterproofed connector supplied in the box.

  If your Robomow Lawn Mower is stuck, here's what you can do: * Move the mower from its current location and restart it. * If the drive wheel motors have been working under a severe load, determine and fix the reason it got stuck. * If the front wheel is blocked by a ditch or uneven ground, check the area around the mower. Fill any ditches or level the ground. * Check that the drive wheels can rotate freely and nothing is blocking them. If needed, increase the cutting height if it's too low for the grass.

What to do if my Robomow RC308 Pro Lawn Mower is outside the designated area?

  Manuel BoyleAug 21, 2025
  If your Robomow Lawn Mower is operating outside the designated area, consider these potential causes: * The Perimeter Wire might be too close to the lawn's edge. Move the wire towards the inner side of the lawn. * The Perimeter Wire might have been laid incorrectly around a perimeter island. Ensure it is laid according to the manual's instructions. * The lawn slope might be too steep along the edge. Avoid including areas with very steep slopes. * The cutting height might be set too low, preventing the mower from turning correctly. Increase the cutting height. * Automatic operation might have started while the robot was outside the Perimeter Wire loop. Place the mower inside the lawn and restart operation.

Why does my Robomow Lawn Mower display 'Check Blade / Cutting Height'?
- G
  Gabrielle PopeAug 28, 2025
  The 'Check Blade / Cutting Height' message on your Robomow Lawn Mower indicates: * The mowing motor has faced over-current conditions for too long due to high grass or an obstacle stuck around the blade. Switch off the Safety Switch before checking the blade. * Something is preventing a blade from rotating freely, such as accumulated grass clippings or a rope wrapped around it. Inspect the blade for foreign material or debris and clean out any accumulated grass clippings using a wooden stick.

  Theresa JamesSep 4, 2025
  If your Robomow Lawn Mower indicates a 'Front Wheel Problem', it may be because: The Front Wheel has left the ground for too long during operation. If Robomow has driven onto an obstacle, switch off the Safety Switch, raise the front end, and remove the object from the mowing area.
