Robomower manual controller

The RL is started with a simple push of a button after it is in place. You also have the option of using the manual controller for mowing areas that are too difficult for the mower to tackle. When doing this you pull the manual control panel, which is attached by a wire, out of the mower and walk behind it. This is only needed for small narrow areas that cannot be isolated with a perimeter wire appropriately.

Not breathing fumes would rate as a safety feature and with this mower you are not even there so its even cleaner for you. In addition to its environmental benefits, the Robomow RL offers several user-friendly, neighbor-friendly features. First, a user-controlled theft protection system guards the mower from unauthorized use, and a child lock provides peace of mind. There is also the safety switch if someones lifts the unit it will immediately stop the blades.

This is a self-propelled mower. This mower takes self-propelled to a whole new level. Once you set it out or drive it to its intended zone you push a button and walk away. The mower has safety bumpers all around. So that if it bumps into a object it can sense it. It also has a sensor if the front wheel is lifted off the ground the blade stops in less than one second. The RL cuts a 21 inch path using three blades. The deck is made out of a durable plastic with rubber bumpers around the edges.

There is no handle on the Robomower. If you need to mow in a specific area that is not wired off you will be using the manual control pad which you pull out of the mower and is attached to it by wire and you walk behind the mower guiding it with the controls. It does have a built in handle for making carrying easier but no push handle.

This mower only does mulching it does not bag the clippings and it does not discharge. The clippings are so fine that they disappear into the lawn rather quickly. This makes your yard need less water also.

This mower is designed to cut about 10, ft. That means it can cut about a quarter of an acre on a single charge. If your yard is larger it may take a couple of charges. The RL has a single front wheel and two large knobby back wheels. The back wheels help to grip, even on inclines. The front wheel is where height adjustments are made. Once your mower is set you will not need to do this very often, if ever.

One reviewer said the high cut blades were not as good because they lead to more grass being stuck under the mowing dome.

Best to stick with the low-cut blades only. What happens to the clippings? Because we mulch in three separate chambers, we actually mulch more effectively than most conventional mowers, thereby leaving smaller clippings that fall into the grass. These smaller clippings provide for quick decomposition into a natural fertilizer for your lawn.

Does rain or water hurt the mower? Under normal circumstances, a unit exposed to rain will not be damaged. We do not recommend washing the unit with a water hose, particularly from the underside. I really enjoy mowing the lawn, besides this is just pure laziness. Again, this is a very common comment. The best way to respond is to say that while many people enjoy mowing their lawn, most enjoy other activities more.

Activities such as spending time with the family, golfing or gardening to name a few examples. A dishwasher washes our dishes, a washing machine washes our clothes and answering machines answer our phones. It is not laziness by any means, but a more intelligent way to manage your time, so you can spend it on other more enjoyable activities.

Since it moves across the lawn in many different directions, won't I have lawn stripes that make my lawn look like a puzzle? Since it does not create a large air flow from the blade rotation it will not lay the grass down similar to a walk mower, which is what creates the stripes.

However, since it is moving across the grass in all directions it offers a much better quality of cut than a traditional walk behind. I like stripes on my lawn - how do you respond? The best way to answer this is to say that a traditional walk mower has to leave stripes, there is no choice. So, if you must have stripes, it would be preferable to have them look nice and neat. Do I have to keep up with the charging process and unplug the charger when the battery becomes completely charged?

No, the charger is equipped with a float control, allowing the charger to remain connected at all times without risk of damage. In fact, this is the recommended procedure between uses and for winter storage. What is the warranty and how long will the mower last? The standard warranty is 24 months parts and labor, 12 months battery.

This is the typical parts and workmanship statement. Will it work with an invisible dog fence? Worse case scenario from our experience is that the pet must be moved out of the area being cut, which is of course a normal safety precaution.
