MEMO 4 - English In the unlikely event that the mower is stolen, it is important to notify the dealer of this. Provide the serial number of the mower so that it can be registered as stolen in the central systems at Husqvarna AB. It is an important step in theft prevention, discouraging interest in the buying and selling of stolen mowers.
English - 5 1. INTRODUCTION AND SAFETY 1. Introduction and safety 1.1 Introduction Congratulations on your choice of an exceptionally high quality product. To get the best results from your Husqvarna robotic lawnmower requires knowledge of its function.
6 - English 1. INTRODUCTION AND SAFETY 1.2 Symbols on the product These symbols can be found on the robotic lawnmower. Study them carefully. • Please read the Operator’s Manual carefully and make sure you understand the instructions before using the robotic lawnmower.
English - 7 1. INTRODUCTION AND SAFETY 1.3 Symbols in the Operator’s Manual These symbols can be found in the Operator’s Manual. Study them carefully. • Turn the main switch to 0 before carrying out any inspections and/or maintenance. • Always wear protective gloves when working with the robotic lawnmower’s chassis.
8 - English 1. INTRODUCTION AND SAFETY 1.4 Safety Instructions Use • This robotic lawnmower is designed to mow grass in open and level ground areas. It may only be used with the equipment recommended by the manufacturer. All other types of use are incorrect.
English - 9 1. INTRODUCTION AND SAFETY • The robotic lawnmower must never be used at the same time as a sprinkler. In this case use the timer function (see 6.
10 - English 1. INTRODUCTION AND SAFETY Maintenance • Inspect the robotic lawnmower each week and replace any damaged or worn parts. Check especially that the blades and blade disc are not damaged. Replace all blades and screws at the same time if necessary so that the rotating parts are kept balanced.
English - 11 2. PRESENTATION 2. Presentation This chapter contains information that is important to be aware of when planning the installation. Installing a Husqvarna robotic lawnmower involves four main components: • A robotic lawnmower that mows the lawn by essentially operating in a random pattern.
12 - English 2. PRESENTATION 2.1 What is what? The numbers in the illustration represent: 1. Body 2. Cover to display, keypad and cutting height adjustment 3. Stop button/Catch to open the cover 4. Contact strips 5. LED for operation check of the charging station, boundary wire and guide wire 6.
English - 13 2. PRESENTATION 2.2 Function Capacity The robotic lawnmower is recommended for lawns up to 0,2 acre (800 m 2 ) (0,125 acre [500 m 2 ] for Automower ® 305). How big an area the robotic lawnmower can keep cut depends primarily on the condition of the blades and the type, growth and moisture of the grass.
14 - English 2. PRESENTATION Working method The robotic lawnmower automatically mows the lawn. It continuously alternates between mowing and charging. The robotic lawnmower starts to search for the charging station when the battery charge becomes too low.
English - 15 2. PRESENTATION The control panel on the top of the robotic lawnmower is where you manage all the robotic lawnmower settings. Open the control panel cover by pressing down the STOP button.
16 - English 3. INSTALLATION 3. Installation This chapter describes how to install the Husqvarna robotic lawnmower. Before starting the installation read the previous chapter 2. Presentation . Read also through this entire chapter before beginning the installation.
English - 17 3. INSTALLATION • Transformer (20) • Low voltage cable (17) • Staples (21) • Connector for connecting the loop wire to the charging station (18) • Screws for the charging statio.
18 - English 3. INSTALLATION The charging station must be positioned with a great deal of free space in front of it (at least 10 ft [3 m]). It should also be centrally placed in the working area to make it easier for the robotic lawnmower to reach all areas in the working area.
English - 19 3. INSTALLATION If the installation is done in a working area with a steep slope (such as around a house on a hill), the charging station should be placed in the area at the bottom of the slope. This makes it easier for the robotic lawnmower to follow the guide wire to the charging station.
20 - English 3. INSTALLATION It is possible to let the low voltage cable cross the working area. The low voltage cable must be stapled down or buried, and the cutting height should be such that the blades on the blade disc can never come in contact with the low voltage cable.
English - 21 3. INSTALLATION Installation and connecting the charging station 1. Position the charging station in a suitable spot. 2. Connect the low voltage cable to the charging station. 3. Connect the transformer’s power cable to a 120V (230 V) wall socket.
22 - English 3. INSTALLATION 3.4 Installation of the boundary wire The boundary wire can be installed in one of the following ways: 1. Securing the wire to the ground with staples. It is preferable to staple down the boundary wire if you want to make adjustments to the boundary loop during the first few weeks of operation.
English - 23 3. INSTALLATION Working area boundaries If a high obstacle, for example a wall or fence, borders the working area, the boundary wire should be laid 12” (30 cm) from the obstacle. This will prevent the robotic lawnmower from colliding with the obstacle and reduce body wear.
24 - English 3. INSTALLATION Boundaries within the working area Use the boundary wire to demarcate areas inside the working area by creating islands around obstacles which cannot withstand a collision, for example, flowerbeds, bushes and fountains.
English - 25 3. INSTALLATION Slopes The boundary wire can be laid across a slope that slants less than 10%. The boundary wire should not be laid across a slope that is steeper than 10%. There is a risk that the robotic lawnmower will find it difficult to turn there.
26 - English 3. INSTALLATION Laying the boundary wire If you intend to staple down the boundary wire: • Cut the grass very low with a standard lawnmower or a trimmer where the wire is to be laid.
English - 27 3. INSTALLATION Laying the boundary wire in towards the charging station The boundary wire must be laid in line with the rear end of the charging station and at least 5 ft (1.5 m) straight out to the right and left of the station. See the illustration.
28 - English 3. INSTALLATION 3.5 Connecting the boundary wire Connect the boundary wire to the charging station: 1. Place the wire ends in the connector: • Open the connector. • Place the wire in the connector grip. 2. Press the connectors together using a pair of pliers.
English - 29 3. INSTALLATION 3.6 Installation of the guide wire The guide wire is a wire that is laid from the charging station towards, for instance, a remote part of the working area or through a narrow passage to be then connected with the boundary loop.
30 - English 3. INSTALLATION Laying and connecting the guide wire 1. Run the wire through the slot in the bottom of the charger plate. 2. Fit the connector to the guide wire in the same way as for the boundary wire described in 3.5 Connecting the boundary wire .
English - 31 3. INSTALLATION • - In the passage, the guide wire must therefore be placed so that the robotic lawnmower has as much space to run in as possible. The distance between the boundary loop and the guide wire must however be at least 12” (30 cm).
32 - English 3. INSTALLATION 6. Connect the guide wire to the boundary wire using a coupler: Insert the boundary wire in each of the holes in the coupler.
English - 33 3. INSTALLATION 3.8 First start-up and calibration Before the robotic lawnmower is operated, a start-up sequence in the robotic lawnmower's menu must be carried out as well as an automatic calibration of the guide signal.
34 - English 3. INSTALLATION 3.9 Test docking with the charging station Before using the robotic lawnmower, check that the robotic lawnmower can follow the guide wire all the way to the charging station and easily docks with the charging station. Perform the test below.
English - 35 4. USE 4. Use 4.1 Charging a flat battery When the robotic lawnmower is new or has been stored for a long period, the battery will be flat and needs to be charged before starting. Charging takes approximately 80 to 100 minutes. 1. Set the main switch to position 1 .
36 - English 4. USE 4.2 Using the timer The lawn should not be cut too often to obtain the best mowing result. Use the timer function (see 6.3 Timer on page 44.
English - 37 4. USE If the timer setting is divided into two work periods, the standby period can be divided into a number of periods. The total standby time must however be at least 6 hours (8 hours for Automower ® 305).
38 - English 4. USE 4.4 Stopping 1. Press the STOP button. The robotic lawnmower stops, the blade motor stops and the control panel cover opens. Restart 1. Push the Start button. 2. Shut the cover within 10 seconds. The robotic lawnmower starts automatically.
English - 39 5. CONTROL PANEL 5. Control panel All forms of commands and settings for the Husqvarna robotic lawnmower are made via the control panel. All functions are accessed via a number of menus. The control panel consists of a display and a keypad.

44 - English 6. MENU FUNCTIONS 6.3 Timer The lawn should not be cut too often to obtain the best mowing result. Consequently, it is important to limit the operating time using the timer function if the working area is less than the robotic lawnmower's working capacity.
English - 45 6. MENU FUNCTIONS 6.4 Installation The following operating settings are available via this selection in the main menu. • Guide width to select the distance from the guide wire the mower is allowed to travel when it follows this to and from the charging station.
46 - English 6. MENU FUNCTIONS Wide In a wide corridor, the robotic lawnmower mows at more varied distances from the guide wire. A garden that is open and free of narrow passages should have a wide corridor to minimise the risk of tracks forming.
English - 47 6. MENU FUNCTIONS The following five options can be selected; - Never (0%) - Rarely (approx. 20%) - Medium (approx. 50%) - Often (approx. 80%) - Always (100%) Select the percentage that corresponds to the size of the remote area relative to the total working area.
48 - English 6. MENU FUNCTIONS Test settings In the Test settings menu, it is possible to test settings for Remote start 1 and that the selected guide width works for the garden in question. Test OUT The Test OUT function is used to test exit settings and to calculate the distance from the charging station to a remote area.
English - 49 6. MENU FUNCTIONS Test IN The Test IN function allows you to test how well the robotic lawnmower docks with the charging station. Test IN can only be performed after Test OUT has been performed. Selecting this function causes the mower to travel directly along the guide wire towards the charging station and docks with it.
50 - English 6. MENU FUNCTIONS Time lock This function means that the robotic lawnmower cannot be started after 30 days without first entering the correct PIN code. When the 30 days has passed the robotic lawnmower will continue to mow as normal, but the Enter PIN code message appears when the cover is opened.
