When the mower is operating it feels powerless, the cutting motor turn off
at once and it will find the virtual wire then go alone it back to charging
station for recharge automatically. (this allows you to keep the charger
connected with the charging station all the time, even after the battery is
fully charged.) On auto pattern, the mower will go on mowing after fully
recharge. But if it is on manual pattern, it will just stay on charging station
after fully recharged.
- Emergency stop switch
There is an emergency stop switch located on the back of mower and red
in color. If you press it in any case during operating, the mower must stop
all movement and stop the rotating of blades immediately. Rotating the
switch to reset it.

How large an area is mown per once recharge depends primarily on the
condition of the blade and the type of grass, growth rate and humidity. The
shape of garden is also significant. If the garden mainly consists of open
lawns, mower can mow more per hour than if the garden consists of
several small lawns separated by trees, flower beds and passages.

3. INSTALLATION
3. Installation
This chapter describes how you install this mower. Before starting the
installation read the previous chapter 2. Presentation.
Read the whole of this chapter too before starting the installation. How
the installation is made also affects how well the mower will work. It is
therefore important to plan the installation carefully.
3.1 Preparations
Training
- Read the instructions carefully. Be familiar with the controls and the
proper use of the appliance.
- Never allow people unfamiliar with these instructions or children to use
the appliance. Local regulations may restrict the age of the operator.
- The operator or user is responsible for accidents or hazards occurring
to other people or their property.
3. INSTALLATION
How to adjust the cutting height:
- The cutting height can be varied for
3cm and 4cm. (Factory setting of
blades is 3cm)
If the grass is long, it is appropriate
to let the mower start mowing at 4cm.
Once the grass is shorter. you
can change it lower with 3cm.
- To adjust the cutting height:
1. Stop the mower and take off the
key.
3. There are two kinds of blades.
3cm blades and 4cm blades.
4. Choose your cutting height (3cm or
4cm), and then fix the two blades
with screws.
We recommend you allow the mower to mainly mow in dry wether to
obtain the best possible result.
5. Turn over the mower to upside.
Cutting height adjustment finished.
-P13-
Level 4cm
2. Turn over the mower to underside.
It’s easy to find that there are two
blades fix on the blades holder.
Swing the 4 screws on blades
holder. And take blades out.
3.2 Hardware adjustments
Blade adjustment
The mowing system used by this mower is based on an effective and
energy efficient principle. Unlike normal lawn mowers, the mower cuts the
grass instead of striking it off.
Level 3cm
Cutting height: 3cm
Cutting height explanation:
For example the cutting height
is in 3cm level.
Grass
Height
3CM
The blades must be in good condition to obtain the best mowing result. In
order to keep the blade sharp for as long as possible it is important to
keep the lawn free from branches, small stones and other objects
(especially the objects less than 6.5cm height).

to find the station for recharge.
-P15-
-P16-
3. INSTALLATION
3.4 Virtual wire installation
The virtual wire can be installed in one of the following ways:
- Securing the wire to the ground with pegs.
It is preferable to staple down the virtual wire, if you want to make
adjustments to the virtual wire during the first few weeks of operation.
- Bury the wire
It is preferable to bury the virtual wire if you want to dethatch or aerate
the lawn.
3. INSTALLATION
- A minimum distances of front charging station and obstacle is 2 meters.
And make sure the distance from corner to front of charging station is at
least 2.5 meters. Make sure to lay a 2.5 meters minimum straight-light of
virtual wire in front of charging station.
If necessary both methods can be combined so one part of the virtual
wire is stapled down and the remainder is buried.
- Dig virtual wire with pegs 1 meter per piece in straight-line. Dig corner as
picture.
OK
- Bury virtual wire below grass and fasten it on the ground with pegs, so
that the mower should not cut the wire. If the grass grow up, we can still
keep the virtual wire as before.
Add pegs in order to pull the
virtual wire down to the ground
surface, below the grass tips.

IMPORTANT
IMPORTANT
INFORMATION
INFORMATION
The charging station is not water-proof,
It’s best to make a Rain Shed above the charging station.
Hard or dry ground may cause pegs to break when driving them in.
In extreme cases, watering the lawn where the pegs will be driven.
-P17-
-P18-
3. INSTALLATION
3. INSTALLATION
- If a high obstacle, for example a wall or fence, borders the working area,
the virtual wire should be laid at least 35cm from the obstacle. This will
prevent mower from colliding with the obstacle and reduce body wear.
Greater than
35cm
- The wires leading to the island and
returning from it should be parallel
and touding. But do not cross them!
If protected obstacles are grouped
closely together demarcate them by
a single. Continuous virtual island if
obstacles are dose to edge, leave
them out of the mowing area.
- The distance between charging station and virtual loop should at least
2.5 meters.
- Use the virtual to demarcate areas inside the working area by creating
islands around obstacles that can not withstand a collision, for example,
flower beds and fountains. Run the cable out to the area, route it around
the area to be demarcated and then back along the same route. If
staples are used, the wire should be laid under the same staple on the
return route. When the virtual wire to and from the island are close
together, the mower can drive over the wire.

Blade replace steps:
1.Stop the robot in safety conditions.
- Attentions for lead-acid batteries
Charge the batteries at least once every six months of they are at 25℃
The interval of this charge should be reduced to 50% by each 10℃
rise in temperature above 25℃. The self-discharger state, their
capacity may not recover ever after charge. If the batteries are
stored for more than a year at room temperature. The life of batteries
may be shortened.
Store the batteries starting from fully charged state to prevent the life of
the batteries being shortened.
Use the batteries as quickly as possible after receiving them as they
gradually deteriorate even under proper storage conditions.
