2. PRESENTATION 2.2 Function of Automower™ Capacity 2 Automower is recommended for lawns up to 3000 m 2 (1800 m for 220 AC). How large an area is mown depends primarily on the condition of the blades and the type of grass, growth rate and humidity. The shape of the garden is also significant. If the garden mainly consists of open lawns, Automower can mow more per hour than if the garden consists of several small lawns separated by trees, flower beds and passages. How long Automower mows a

2. PRESENTATION Working method Automower automatically mows the lawn. It continuously combines mowing and charging. The charging station sends out a signal that Automower can sense at a distance of 6 - 7 metres. The mower starts to search for the charging station when the battery charge becomes too low. Automower does not mow when it is searching for the charging station. When Automower searches for the charging station it uses one or more of three different search methods: Irregular, F

2. PRESENTATION The STOP button on the top of Automower is mainly used to stop the mower when it’s running. When the STOP button is pressed a cover opens, behind which there is a control panel. The STOP button remains depressed until the cover is closed again. This acts as start inhibitor. 3012-388 The control panel on the top of Automower is where you manage all the mower settings. The main switch is also located on the control panel. Open the control panel cover by pressing down the S

2. PRESENTATION Movement pattern The mower’s movement pattern is irregular and is determined by Automower itself. A movement pattern is never repeated. This mowing system means the lawn is mown equally without any mowing lines. 3012-695 If Automower enters an area where it senses the grass is longer than earlier, it can change the movement pattern. It can then mow in a square pattern to cover the area of longer grass more systematically. When Automower mows in a square pattern, this is k

2. PRESENTATION Search method 2: Follow boundary wire Automower runs irregularly until it reaches the boundary wire. The mower then follows the boundary wire in to the charging station. This search method is best for an installation that has an open lawn with wide passages (wider than about 3 metres) and no, or only a small, island. The advantage of this search method is that the search times are generally short. The disadvantage is that tracks can be formed to a 3012-484 certain extent in

3. INSTALLATION 3. Installation This chapter describes how you install Husqvarna Automower™. 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 Automower will work. It is therefore important to plan the installation carefully. Planning is simplified if you make a sketch of the working area, including all obstacles. This makes it easier to see the

3. INSTALLATION 3.1 Preparations 1. If the lawn in the proposed working area is taller than 10 cm, mow it using a normal lawn mower. Then collect the clippings. 2. Read carefully through all the steps before the installation. 3.

3. INSTALLATION The charging station must be positioned on relatively level ground. The height difference must not differ more than 5 cm between the front and rear of the charging station. 3012-554 The charging station must not be positioned so that its plate bends. 3012-532 Consider the distance to a wall socket when choosing the position. The charging station should be connected to a 230V wall socket via the low voltage cable and transformer. The supplied low voltage cable is 20 metres

3. INSTALLATION Avoid placing the charging station in a narrow passage (narrower than about 3 metres). 3012-514 3012-515 Do not position the charging station so that the mower can come closer than 3 metres behind the charging station (for example on a narrow point). The mower will not then find the charging station. 3012-744 Installation and connecting the charging station 1. Position the charging station in a suitable spot. 2.

3. INSTALLATION 3. Connect the low voltage cable to the charging station. Only use original cable and transformer. 3012-263 4. Connect the low voltage cable to the transformer. The connectors may be slightly difficult to connect, as they are moisture-proof. 3012-262 5. Connect the transformer’s power cord to a 230V wall socket. It is preferable to use an earth-fault breaker as recommended. IMPORTANT INFORMATION Do not tread or walk on the charging station plate. 3012-533 English - 21
